How long till this thread gets either locked or deleted?
^ This.
Seriously, how many little kids use this site? Though prevention is a good plan, maybe there are some times when deletion can wait until it actually starts getting out of hand. I have been a member of many, many MANY different kinds of forums and websites. None have ever had moderation as fine toothed and extensive as this site's is. Some of the words that are censored are simply ridiculous. Like the word that describes methane exiting a persons hind-end is blocked. Why? I'm surprised stupid, idiot, dumb aren't blocked too. I understand that they/you are trying to make it "family friendly" but it's gotten way overbearing. The internet equivalent of a parent that never lets their teenage kid go to movies, do stuff with friends... Basically anything except go to and from school and homework.
