A Question was posed "why was the abuser who used WTF not deemed to fall foul of 'swearing rules'?"
and the Answer by the Spare ED was
“Because "WTF" doesn't have any of the offensive punch of an actual swearword, it is already sterilized and, as it becomes more used, it seems to less be saying the words that make it up and more a direct expression of its meaning.”
Surely the only reason the abbreviation “WTF” is used is there is no way (assuming the automatic censor is working) the full F-word would pass? It is <B>not</B> a case of it being sterilized and <i>if</i> it is a case of the more it is used the less it is saying the words that make it up, why do you not go the whole hog and have no censorship at all in order to reduce the impact of ANY profanity?
You have removed a username because of its sexual connexion when you admitted you originally had no idea of that fact and yet you continue to allow a widely known abbreviated phrase containing the F-word.
pooped now though - day off again tomorrow but not much fun - physio (not bad) then dentist sticking needles in my mouth :-( Will catch you after that hopefully x Night all
