Swearing & Cussing is normally used by people with weak minds trying to express themselves forcefully.
And end up showing their Ignorance.

The censoring engine regards PMs as just another type of post, so filters them as well.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

I LOVE the pious and pompous attitude there. I don't come on the internet to compare brain pans, preach or politic. Your opinion is duly noted and in my opinion, dismissed. Have a nice day there Boasun.

I can see that, unfortunate as it may be. I reckon I'll just have to make a call to voice my thoughts then.

CC, just use creative spelling. Your point will still be made, and SNs child filter can't possibly cover them all. Or go on over to SA. You can swear all you want over there, apparently .

I imagine sooner-or-later somebody with the financial wherewithal and the technical means will tire of all this nonsense and set up some competition for Sailnet. (The money's really the only hard part. The rest is pretty trivial.)

And Boasun: Balderdash! (Which is no more than another way of saying bull****. [I censored myself on that one.])
