Sometimes profanity is the only thing that can correctly convey the meaning you want. Profanity is not the same as disrespect and heated discussions. If talk.maemo.org is an informal forum, I see no reason to automatically strip/censor these (sometimes necessary) words.
As a writer by nature I want to agree with you-- but then I am reminded that **** or $#@^&%! tend to get the point across as effectively as the real thing.
