I had a post earlier today censored (I used the word fa**ot but not in an offensive way), so I started a thread asking readers for words not allowed.  The post got taken down in minutes.
What words are banned?

It's an American hosted site, mememe, so the words the Yanks may find offensive aren't allowed.
Doesn't matter if none of them are allowed to use Betfair over there.

guinness is ok now?

Yes, has been for a while now, Brendan.
I think Betfair relented on that one as it's a word of such common use over here and was used so many times on the forum, it had loads of people raging every time such an innocuous word was starred out.

I see Kate Bush is allowed - I daren't try Kate T*ts.
I suppose that I'll never get an answer as when a forumite uses a banned word, the thread will get taken down.
And we'll never know.
The moderators have created a paradox.  Whatever next? A robust IT platform.

You're going to spoil it for me! I've never created my own thread before and had people joining in and I fear you will get itbtaken down.
I've never been so happy since I ensnared Zodiac in my net on the Horse Racing thread about a year ago - it only took me 6 minutes and one or two forumites complimented me. (mind you it was easy as Zodiac is a ****** (I won't even try the word)).
