This impassioned plea came from a Regular Reader:

"I am a regular reader of your journal but recently I have been blocked because of a "banned phrase". Could you please do me a favour and edit it so it is misspelled or something because otherwise I will have to wait untill it is in the archives before being allowed to visit again."

I never make a concerted effort to avoid cussin', but I usually make do without four-letter words (The Longest Journey players may disagree, and believe me, I've received more flak for that than anything else I've ever done...except for the "gay themes" in TLJ...and the [fill in blank here] in Anarchy Online). I searched through the text in the journal, and I didn't find any serious words (the 'f's, 's's, or the, uh, 'c'). I did find a couple of 'da*n's, 'he*l's, 'he*k's, 'ar*e's, and a solitary 'por*ographic' (though I'm not sure if that qualifies as a Bad Word, or, indeed, a four-letter word).

I could rewrite all the text to conform to some middle-American ideal of unsoiled religious piety, but...nah. I'm a potty-mouth.

Still, though, I'm sorry that my journal is blocked to certain readers, and if there's a single word in particular that prevents access, I will, of course, change or remove the offending word. Just don't ask me to stop saying 'arse'. It's one of life's many pleasures. I need my arses.  ¶ 12:16
