I really think this topic has run its course as well, and we've already closed the first thread on this issue. I don't want to keep rehashing it over and over again. We're a community that supports people of all ages with mental health concerns and we decided to limit swearing using common swear words. While it may be a little frustrating from time to time, it's a decision that I continue to stand behind.

Thanks Doc John. What you said about the software makes sense.
