LSB, I'm not sure any of us really grasp your argument because you're saying that only one of two or any number of words ought to be blocked from our chat. Brick you, freak you, buck you, heck you, rubber-duck you and whatever anyone else has thought up, IT'S ALL THE SAME. If it was up to me completely, I wouldn't allow any of them because I feel that you're basically saying the same thing, that it's the same meaning no matter what word you use as a replacement. But it isn't up to me. I personally feel like if we allow brick it and stuff like that, it makes perfect sense to allow buck. It's a common MLP fanon expression, at least as common as brick on the LMBs. But the LMBW is not at all known for the common sense its inhabitants have. First, I'm not saying to block the words. I voted for a yellowx, but I'd rather have, as Dk said, an E.

Also, I understand what you guys mean. "It's all the same". But IMO, I see "buck" as the F word when someone is using it for another meaning rather then the word meaning, but I don't see "this is bricking stupid" as the same. lol that's your personal problem of semantic perception, you can't expect others to share it. I also don't expect CMs to use cusses, no matter if the first word is changed or not.

But if the community supports it, then so be it. How is being a CM (i.e. being responsible for enforcing the policy) oblige you not to use specific words that are not, I repeat, not outlawed by the rules?
