What about swearing? Is it allowed or do we have to use asterisk?

Yeah, can I say "bullshit" or do I have to type "bull****", because in the end we're all reading the word "Bullshit" in our heads anyways, would seem sort of pointless.

yeah, it's fine. there doesn't appear to be a swear filter in the CP from what i can tell, as long as it's not excessive swearing, it should be fine

What Cinna said. Light cursing is fine if it's appropriate. Anything excessive and I'll have to start warning people. I don't want to filter swears as that makes it seem more acceptable to use them.

I see, so telling them in a story is fine, as well, if I say it like 4 times in a post?

Read it aloud and think "would the average person care about these swears?" If the answer isn't an immediate "no," you could probably stand to fix it.
