You can still refer to it without the swear filter intervening

Shorpe

Or

Scunthorpe

Just stick [i*] and [/i*] without the stars around a letter or two

Sc[i]u[/i]nthorpe

Hopefully the mods wouldn't regard that as trying to circumvent the swear filter

I always thought it was a joke element but it's never been confirmed

Yep, definitely not evading the swear filter this way. Unless you're using it for the actual swear word of course...

It's been like this for as long as I've known. I think it adds to the charm of the site
