Sw#@*ing in threads

Many of you confused about being moderated for foul language in their posts. One today replied that "if you are offended by the word why not bleep it out?".

The EO bleepometer will automatically bleep out all words such as bleep and bleep and bleep and bleep but where a user uses characters such as @ or # or ! etc, e.g. sh#t , to avoid the bleepometer the moderation team have no option but to moderate the post for foul language. If the moderated user wants their post re-instated then they can reply to the email they get and request the word be changed removed or whatever.

This is tedious and a pain for the user AND the ModSquad. The bleepometer is there to moderate language like that.

Note also that abbreviations such as FIGJAM, WTF, CRAFT will also be moderated.

So type what you want to say and let the bleepometer do its job. Remember, if you need to use characters like $#@! to alter your word then maybe pop another word in there.

Last thing, if you wouldn't say it in front of your grandmother, then please don't use it here, unless your grandmother is an ornery old bleep .
