Swearing filter

    Would it be possible to make having swearing filtered and option in a users control panel?

    I just think having a filter is a bit childish on a site who's userbase is overwhelmingly adults.

    The swear filter can only be turned on or off for the whole site, there is no ability to do it by user or by forum for example.

    It has it's uses. A lot of things can be said without resorting to swearing, it's not a bad thing to discuss without swearing or at least having to think about the words used before getting around the swear filter as lots of people do.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
