I've never liked that smiley myself.  Maybe it will take a walk someday.

As for that word, how about this.  Let's have some people learn to use a little self-restraint and not swear every other word.  Also, how about not whining and calling things "censorship" when they're the result of rules enforced on a privately owned and operated medium?  Or would you want people to be able to insult your mother here, troll, post porn, spam, adware and virus-infected links, and other undesirable content?  Or how about "We reserve the right to moderate, edit, modify, delete, and otherwise do whatever the sporking hell we want with people's text" because we control the content?  Also, how about people respecting the wishes of some of the moderators and not using potty mouth on the forums?  Seriously, you want to use the f-word that bad, use it somewhere else.  I'm not going to argue about it.

Also, please lay off whatever you were on when you made all these posts.  I stuck up for you being angry about getting stuck in traffic, but looking at your post spam in retrospect I'm more inclined to agree with Tab right now.  You appear to be either drunk, stoned, or otherwise under the influence of something.  That's no excuse for posting like Games Keeper.
