Posting profanity with * substituting for letters is still posting profanity. I know what these words are. I've used these words in my less than sterling moments of anger. Our guests include children and people who don't care for such expressions. Please, don't do it. I will delete all profanity,sans vowels or not.

I once got into an online argument in another forum with someone who was using what I considered immature logic. I thought to myself, this is something an adolescent would say. A lightbulb went on in my thick skull.

After conferring with the moderator, I discovered the person I was ready to lower the boom on was a mere 13 years old. Goes to show you never know who is online. Unless the forum has an age minimum and enforces it, it is best to err on the side of caution.

Another definition for people who have to frequently resort to swearing to get a point across - verbal paraplegics.

That is the logic of a wise man...
