I usually take that to mean theyre enjoying it.

I see one of the mods has roused him/herself from their post-lunch torpor....

That's certainly how I usually communicate my enjoyment.

I don't know, seems to work here

please don't take the piss, it leads to some mod getting all jiggy with the 'special' buttons, and that comes out of our retainer fees.

Just as well for you... When I was about 15, I called her a bh once and I have never taken a sucker punch so hard in my life. She's 5 foot 2 and yet she somehow managed to magically teleport her right arm from her side to my face instantaneously. Lesson learned. I said sorry and didn't ever do it again.

Just think yourself lucky you don't live in shorpe!

Seriously though, we have to have a swear filter to keep the site work/family friendly and we are aware that it isn't perfect but we try to strike the best balance we can.

The censored words list in posts is based on a list of the 20 most offensive words, but the title filter uses a different, older list, hence some words being allowed in one but not in the other.

Ah, I see...Was just curious as I assumed they would run off the same filter.

You can, but I'm not going to tell you how, 'cos they'd probably sin-bin me for it.

Ah, I see where you're going but I suspect that experimenting with getting past the filter would be rather too bold for my blood.
