[Opinions] Slightly random question...
Why did you put kn***ed up? With the astericks, I mean. I know it's a crude term, but is it seen as that offensive? It's apparently passed me by, and I dont want to accidentally say something wrong. I'm genuinely curious, hope I'm not coming across as rude or forward.For the record, that's what I thought of too!

I thought you more or less HAD to "censor" crude words on international forums? I once wrote "bitchy" at a forum and it came out as b****y, so nowadays I think "better not risk being yelled at".
In Sweden we seldom censor crude words (I mean, of course we are taught not to use them, but we don't beep them in TV and so on...) so it's difficult to know what rules to follow internationally.

I bleep them out on this board because I know there are a lot of teenagers here. I don't know why, as I am sure they have all heard the words before.
