    Has someone been tightening it up? I'm sure I used "*******" recently without falling foul of the filter. Not tonight, though. I've been well and truly asterisked.

    Edit
    ******* = illegitimate person

    It's definitely been tightened up recently. I used to somehow never set it off as I obviously use obscure obscenities but I've been starred quite a few times recently, for really tame things too. It's so sensitive now it makes posts look really sweary when they actually aren't. For example, I often use the word féck which even the advertising standards authority says is not a swear word and can be used pre-watershed but now when I post it it's starred out, and, as it is 4 letters long like a similar word, it makes it look like I have been f-bombing everywhere.

    I like to ****. I'd love a campaign to get more of it. I've been feckless for too long. I was once called a "feckless gimp".

    I guess this is technically swearing but you definitely used to be able to type the word for poo with an e on the end.

    You could always replace swear words with Benet des douche or Kaiserslautern :D.

    I can assure you (and @JamDrop) it hasn’t been overly tightened recently. The OP has been in the swear filter for literally years, so it’s just a combination of typing words for the first time in ages or assuming one word you read is meant to be something else.

    Scout’s honour from what I can see.

    You’re definitely got the cheat code. Apart from someone quotes you it seems.

    I’ve asked several people if they would describe me as feckless and they all said no. If I’m not feckless I must have ****. What is it?
