Someone is drunk :)

But I imagine that f.ag and fa.ggot is censored because of political reasons.... it's a crazy PC world we live in, even if the insult is really meant to call someone a pussy.

Oh well :(

Just curious

The simple explanation we all received when that word was censored was that it looks bad to potential advertisers to see a bunch of 13 year olds throwing homosexual slurs around constantly....especially considering this world of internet tough guys, who lose arguments and immediately retreat to that sort of retort out of sheer embarrassment. That was good enough for me.

*** isn't off limits. I type *** all the time.

And &^&(*& is okay too. Just make sure you hold shift, then press 8.
