What the ****

[leyorkie]

Correct me if I am wrong but words such as fk, fked and get censored on the forums.
Why then can I buy items with these words prominently displayed, T shirts and mugs for example in the PH shop?
Is PH dumbing down to the level of other Forums?I always thought it was the last refuge of a gentleman.

Please do not censor this post but let's have a meaningful discussion about this.

Just posted and my post was automatically censored.
Let's try this
At least I can buy the T shirt!

That beat the censor who must be related to Mary Whitehouse .
I am not suggesting that we do not maintain standards on the forum but also in all the other sections of PH

Nothing to do with offending sensibilities, everything to do with it being a commercial enterprise and not wanting to be blacklisted by web filters for which I don't blame them.

DrTre has it absolutely correct.

The higher the incidence of swearing, the more web filters will pick the site up, the lower the audience will be.

That's all there is to it and it's not a discussion point at all.
