And yes, Dick is an actual name .
Because the site censors make no distinguishing on context whatsoever. Gotta appease the advertisers lest they get a heart attack and explode over a (maybe) bad word.
i believe its a wordfilter
Ahh, the Scunthorpe problem strikes again.

This is pretty s-----.
If I'm being honest, I find some instances of censorship more amusing than bothersome.
Such as the image being discussed here.
To me it's so dumb I can't help but laugh. 'Course, the title censoring as a whole is still bad and makes me think this place has become more and more babyfied over the years.

"Schoolgirls" is censored now.
Actually, I'll do you one better: "School Girls" is censored now.
What in the actual shit?
I think the word "Fart" is also censored in titles, I remember seeing an image post that had it censored and some people on here pointed it out.
And now, with uploads like those:

We now know that the word Homo (as in Ecce Homo or – God forbid – Homo sapiens) is apparently too sensible for some of our sponsors. Who in their honest minds thought this was a good idea?
