Unless the language is foul, it pretty much gets approved. It is not easy to censor, though I wish it were. I'd have just as soon not approved the first post in this string, since I think it is off base. But that person was free to say what he/she wanted. And in that regard, the response was approved. The word "masturbating" (mispelled by the moron who replied) is not profane, though I agree not in good taste.

Bottom line is that the board is slow and I'd rather see some activity, even if it's useless data. I think there is two reasons for the decline in activity: 1) the board is nearly constantly down and 2) there are too many people who get offended over the slightest thing.
