Some issues.

First, if you know the word is going to be filtered out by the profanity filter, well, don't use it.

Secondly, using a non-alphanumeric symbol like "*" in place of a vowel to get around the profanity filter isn't copasetic either. I know everyone's on edge with the industry, but doing that will result in an infraction.

Why, you ask?

Well, the Dali Llama himself called and said he was concerned that most of the posts were full of pound symbols and strategically-placed asterisks and he was going to write me a "Goodbye Cruel Site" post if it kept up.

Besides, "You guys are all ##### and I hope you ##### your #####, you ######" reeeally makes you sound like you're prone to temper tantrums and need a little Ritalin.

And that's on the unapproved list for airmen!

Have a great day.
