Not ridiculous, you talk about free speech but this I believe is a private website and if DocJohn decided we were no longer allowed to use the words, 'fishfingers' or 'fiddlesticks' then that is what we agree to when we sign up here.

This is true. Every site draws a line somewhere on words. Political sites, auto enthusiast sites, gaming sites etc.
Anyway, bottom line, I can deal with the *****ing asterisks (yes those are just asterisks) but how good an imagination these supersensitive people have might be a good question. As someone pointed out... it doesn't take a MENSA member to figure out what was censored.
The restrictions on ideas and adult discussions on certain topics
are a mystery to me though. I don't see how talking about politics or religion could be any more triggering than talking about a psychotic killer

There are boards here that require membership to post... maybe there could be an adult discussions forum. We make friends here... it's only natural to want to discuss news and such with our friends. For some it's the only community they have.
Either way... it is what it is and I better post this before it's closed.
