See, I just *LOVE* the idea of someone trying to swear, and not only do their obscenities change, but so does their icon! Woo hoo!
(And it should be a default, "Angry smurf swearing" icon. I'm sure there are hundreds of those -- it WAS a 1990's kids' cartoon, after all...)
That does sound pretty f&!*ing cool.

Also, pretending it's a real issue, and an important one to boot, that people NOT SAY CERTAIN WORDS... because... uhhh... reasons... is pretty weird. I can understand that various companies comply under threat of lawsuits... but not one bit of that makes it a real, sensible issue. It only shows that in a world as full of serious problems as this one is, some people who could have worked on something better, actually spend their energy preventing other people from SAYING CERTAIN WORDS as if it mattered.

Ok, but I've got to warn you - sometimes my mind comes up with some pretty disturbing/goofy shit. Enter at your own risk.

Some day, possibly in the not-so-distant future, someone will decide that Paizo's use of smurf images is a copyright violation. Then Paizo will have to remove all the smurf images from their database, rendering thousands of smurf posts completely nonsensical.
WHY IS EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT SMURFS?!?!
Edit: OMG that is the perfect avatar for this post... :-)

Why is it not a real, sensible issue? If people started swearing left and right on the message boards, I would feel uncomfortable, and not come back. I suspect I'm not the only one. Why is driving away potential customers and/or community members not a real, sensible issue?

I suspect because there is already a profanity filter in place? Not that I can speak for Sissyl, of course.

We also have a language note in the Community Guidelines. Context is generally really important when we moderate posts for language, and hasn't come up (whole body crossed) as an issue our team has had to deal with often.

OK, now you've got me going. I grabbed my kids' latest Mad Libs book and filled in every blank with the appropriately-conjugated blue term.
I know Paizo frowns on copyright infringement for some reason, so I won't post the results here, but I will say you get some pretty funny smurf!
D'oh! I said it!
