Done Mickey. Unfortunately when I add an option it removes the existing votes but people can vote again.

It's more about having the option if a moment can be perfectly expressed with one or two words.

Just checked the swear filter and it just has the F word, the C word and a few derivatives of each.

F### and c### should stay on the swear filter, anything else can come off in my opinion

Considering the first and third option are the same it looks like an overwhelming majority of those who voted have spoken. :D

Not sure I agree. F and C are the start of hundreds of thousands of words

Bitch has to remain permitted.

please don't ban me for this, I need to contribute & if it's offensive, please delete straight away.
The other day, I jokingly called someone a c**t, I didn't actually type the word, I put the asterixes in myself, if this is wrong, then so be it but I have seen far worse, people call people cnuts quite often & get away with it, so there needs to be no grey areas. it doesn't matter how it's spelled, it means the same thing & if 1 way of spelling it is offensive, then it must not be permitted at all. Therefore, you can't type cnut or crunt or puck etc., etc.
