About the forum censor - what is censored, how and why?

Hi there!

I would just like to know out of curiosity, which words are all censored (try to describe them or work around the censor somehow  :mrgreen: ), which is their replacement, why those words got censored and, most important, why all those weird replacements?

I know of Hitler being replaced by Einstein, and fag being replaced by bundle of sticks. But I don't know why. And what about the thing which gets replaced by that long... poem?
Joker makes a very good point.

Anything you write gets censored to "tl;dr", at least for me.

As for the others... Either it's a loooong story dating back to the time of the dinosaurs about which a 250 page essay would be appropriate or maybe it's just for fun.

I dunno.

The "poem" is for Mod is Dead
At fifteen, I had the will to learn; at thirty, I could stand; at forty, I had no doubts; at fifty, I understood the heavenly Bidding; at sixty, my ears were opened; at seventy, I could do as my heart lusted without trespassing from the square.

Why? Because people have been complaining about the death of the mod with every single patch, since before it was born, so I can see why it could get annoying. Before, it got censored to mod is once again alive and kicking

Perhaps one of the forum admins/devs could enlighten us?  :?

Seems the fascists are gaining ground once again in UKR... right vving politics is SO bad for the general populace but STILL in times of trouble the uneducated turn to them for help, simply because they are so amoral they vvill supply those vvilling to fight vvith vveapons rather than knovvledge.
