Welp, we didn't make it to preseason practice before somebody couldn't control themselves.
Just suspended a long-time member (2001) for 90 days for an attempt to get around the profanity filters with cute use of symbols.
How many times do we have to say it, guys?
No profanity.
Acronyms and cute use of symbols will be treated the same as if you typed the real word in bold, red, double-underlined 72 font.
To my mind, attempts to thinly disguise the profanity are actually worse than simply typing the word. It indicates the poster knew the word wasn't allowed and tried to slip it past the filters anyway....in an adolescent Beavis-and-Butthead fashion.
Don't do it. If you just can't help yourself, expect material consequences.
If you don't like that, there are plenty of boards that will welcome you. Go.
