Currently, swearing isn't strictly prohibited per se (excessive amount is though), so if moderation didn't poke you yet, then apparently you're keeping it within reasonable amounts.

Either way, word filtering, that replaces certain words with another is an option indeed. Now that you brought it up, replacing curse words with *squee* wouldn't be a bad idea in my opinion - not as optional feature, but ya know, by default, for everyone. I think it would make sense to have such words filtered out on a pony forum.

@Treeglow Flicker

I actually know what you are talking about.
Once upon a time, I had a private message board that I shared with a girl that I was dating. Without realizing it, the message board had filters for curse words automatically activated. I was sharing information about a Japanese band that I like (Rider Chips). One of their debut albums was called Hajimemashite, which means "Pleased To Meet You". ... Did you catch that?  Again, the name of the album was called Hajimemashite. Again, this a Japanese word, NOT a curse word. But the filter recognized it as a curse word and automatically changed it to something like Hajimemashoote. The automatic change was giving me a mild panic attack until I realized that there must have been some parental controls in the settings; and I was right.

@Rikifive

If excessive cursing is the real problem, then would it be possible to implement a counter? As people are typing a message, the counter detects how many curse words have been used. If your message exceeds a certain number, maybe you get some kind of warning message?  Or is it just not possible to make a feature like that right now?

That sounds like high tech please don't implement that into counting thank you only for swearing like a swear jar also do you want a bite of this snowball it's very delicious yum yum
