No, I was thinking wrap it in a <span class="badword">, and CSS that. Wouldn't take much work, as the post text could be stored with the span tags in place, and dumped as-is. Just the censoring client-side, not the token identification... that would be bad.

Ah, that is a great idea. It would be perfect if a human were seleceting the sites to block.
But, I think for it to be kept in the workplace with software selected blocks, we will need to put a little more work upon the server.

I think I found what I had read awhile ago that I based my previous statement on...

Ah, the questions that trouble the profane mind...

Did you also see "Hacking/cracking content" listed as well?
As I said, I don't receive ad revenue. But I have been known to meet more than a few who do for drinks on a semi-regular basis.
One forum owner I know received a denial from Google and it took him almost 4 months of email appeals, demonstrated use of new "swear filters", newly posted rules, etc. before re-reinstatement.
This denial BTW, came after months of regular income which abruptly stopped. He believes it may have simply been prompted by a disgruntled former member who complained.
This affected me in a negative way also as I found that I now had to pay for more of my drinks.

While that is interesting (and I do hope that by hacking/cracking they mean "cracking, also known as hacking"; opposing any of the mainstream hacking on here would seriously violate DBE), it's (fortunately) not applicable to itT at present, as itT doesn't use Google AdSense.
Of course, on a second glance at the list... Wow. That doesn't look much like DBE from here. I've always considered Google to be a little on the fruity-green side, anyway, but whaddya expect from California? But "Sales or promotion of weapons or ammunition"? Hoplophobia at its best.

But when you thought about it it was rather funny.

Somewhat; not as bad as some, but definitely not for polite company.

You seem to enjoy that with me, so I was being pre-emptive.
And I'm so disgusted that "rollover curse words" went over like a lead balloon. *sigh* I know, I know: don't quit the day job.
