Y'know when people want to type a, shall we say, nawrty word?

Why the hell do they go to all that bloody effort to replace certain letters with barely recognisable characters slightly similar to the letters?

Why can't they just be like normal people, and use asterii, instead of going through the whole rigmaroll of opening Word, or scouring their keyboard for a combination of characters to create a letter?

For one, it defeats the purpose of the swear filter, which the kind people here have strenuously constructed. Probably.

And it also makes you look like a complete moron, and makes me imagine you trying to look all cool because you "beat the system" (Hell, I'm turning into Solskjaer).

So, just f****** stop it, and be normal, eh?
Good.

Excuse me when I say, did you really feel that strongly to start this topic?
As you, obviously did, I will try and use the good, old-fashioned asterii instead of the hi-tech word creation skills
I suppose it was a form of self expression but hey, whatever. If they have some metaculous swear filter ('probably'), I'm not going to be the one to make it pointless.

F*** yeah, I'm not....

Oh yeah, it would be.....

I was thinking it was asterix as well, even though I knew it wasn't. Odd.

Bah, it's 'asterisks' apparently.

I honestly though the word was "asterix".

Ah well. Stupid Nordic comics, trying to influence me.
