Honestly, this is just one step away from getting comfortable with the F-word, and I'd rather we either allow it all or don't allow it at all. Well that seems a bit like a false dilemma. We can't allow all words because lots of people wouldn't be allowed here anymore, so going at them on a word-by-word basis seems reasonable to me... Per^^^

"piss" is accepted in many more households than the F word. It's more like 10 leaps away from that than 1 step. :P But we're still heading in that direction. Who's to say in a year someone puts up a vote saying "Unblock the F and S word because they are the only words left unblocked?" if the wiki community is mature enough to handle these words, that's totally fine

This is why unblocking all these words is just becoming a problem, this site has to be avalible to the average MB user to join, and right now, it's heading towards not being that. Those words aren't mature, nobody with decent morals or a decent vocabulary should use those words in an online chat, especially on one that could be full of younger kids. Using words that aren't inherently offensive is in no way immoral. hat's an extremely ignorant and rude statement. Some people believe that these words are just words. Used to express something (usually to /strongly/ express something.) Now I don't curse in front of people who dislike it, but I also don't consider hell, piss, and damn, curse words.

I look at it objectively, these words were not intended to be inherently offensive, unlike racial slurs, they're just words. They can be used in an inappropriate way, but so can many other words that haven't received the label of a "curse word". That's how I see it.

Now I understand some people find it offensive and I respect that, and unlike some people I won't insult other people's maturity or morality because of that. :)
