Addition to the swear filter.

[Life Saab Itch]

Guys, would it be worth adding the word Pikey to the swear filter so it looks like py?

In this thread, there has obviously been a bit of a chop because people have been using this word as a race related term.

Whether or not pikey is a racial term (which I think is debatable) would it not be better to avoid the term being posted on PH at source, rather than the mods having to clear up afterwards?

Just a thought.

Will you be extending this to chav, scally, ginger, fatty and ned too? Wouldn't want anyone getting offended would we.

I thought the OP was being sarcastic?, Or am I un-PC?.

Here is not the place for that debate, Stuart has explained the reasons at length already several times.

Yes, "spikey" works, as has "wristwatch" for a long time now. You are even allowed to snigger!

I hate bucking P1keys as much as the next man, but I have no issue with p1key being censored. Or any other word that could offend - this is a free forum and Dennis Publishing needs to cover their a55 after all.
