Oddly, you can use the acronym 'wtf', which stands for 'what the ****'. And as you can see, the word '****' is censored, yet 'wtf' is not considered a circumvention of the profanity filter and it is used by almost everyone. So it appears that these rules are unclear at best.

Do you seriously not see the difference between typing 'wtf' and 'what the ****'?

Would this be considered profane?:

I think he does see that difference, but doesn't see the difference between "wtf", "*****" (etc) and "bad" circumventions of the profanity filter.

When I use "WTF" it stands for "what the frack". Just so you know.

Some folks in the mod forum really liked this link. At 0:48, you can see Picard in his now famous "WTF is this ****" pose.

This thread and other concurrent threads in the mods' *orum has made me realise that we are *ar too loose with our censorship.

In *uture, the letter * will be censored in order that none of you ****ers can get away with **** all.

Now.

Can we all be *riends?
