Marked with asterisks or not, it's really not needed, and could deter new users from contributing to the forum if they are offended by the use of profanity. I'm not asking on behalf of myself as it doesn't offend me in the slightest, but it has been actively discussed by the moderation team for the past few weeks, and we all think that the use of the odd word isn't too bad but the continued use is cause for concern.
On a similar level; I'm not religious, but anyone who is may be offended if users of this forum excessively used the Lord's name in vain. Let's just have a little bit of respect.
I agree with this point. I know that Adam (Eighton Banks Adam, we have too many!
) is religious and attends church, etc, and although I know he is always up for a bit of banter, I can't imagine he likes seeing posts with twenty five swear words and half a dozen Jesuses in, no matter how outgoing he is.
