I dont have a problem with the language filters. I was just interested in how the words were chosen. I guessed the thing about wanker being british and bungie being American. I was just testing to see if iwas blocked.
I think theres too much stress taken about swearing. I swear sometimes, and as long as someone isnt actually insulting to someone i dont care how strong the language they use. If some one says "what the f...." or "it was f...ing huge" and that sorta stuff, or if it is a joke, i see no problem. There is no problem with swearing unless it is used in a hurtful manner. In fact i think everybody should continiuosly use all the strongest swear words in their conversations until people learn to calm down about it. Parents shouldnt try to 'protect' their kids from swearing. That just encourages them, and they'll have learnt all the words by the age of 12, and probably frequently using them. We should allow U films to have swearing, as then it wont be seen as naughty, and therefore (to the immature minds of yuonger kids) there would not be the coolness factor there is associated with it with younger age groups.
i.e.
Swearing doesnt matter.
restrictive parents (unlike my own) need to get a grip
Hmm.... what a pointless rant i have just posted
