Yeah, that gets rid of going through almost 300,000 posts (old topics included, just to make sure our Guests aren't blinded with swearing since they like to look at very old topics) and editing them all.
Formerly quite reasonable.

All swear words should be censord! I'm 13 and I HATE all swear words! But words like "heck" or "crap" or "dang" don't bother me in the least bit! So all posts should be reviewed and censord!
Not really a bump, considering how often this board is posted in.
Anyway, I'm too lazy to find out if that's real or more sarcasm than can be handled on the internet.
What does "censord" mean, anyway?

Isn't the filter on by default now?

From what I can tell, he was, unfortunately, not being sarcastic.

That's what I gathered as well.

I personally believe that manual censoring is certainly unnecessary; that being said, I think that certain users should stop trying to evade the censor.

One certain topic springs to mind.  If there's any swearing in that particular topic (which I don't believe there is), it might be wise to censor it.

Guests don't look through the board history.

They all just look at the Mario Kart coloring pages thread for some reason. Some unknown, creepy, unsettling reason.

Seriously, what is going on in that thread that attracts so much attention?
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

Perhaps James Elston's website has IP appenages which routinely trace themselves to sites which link to it. In the name of science, I'll put the link here to see if any guests flock:

And now... we wait.

I'm beginning to think that this board would shut down without the high volume of views on that one thread.  I wonder what would happen if someone screwed with the link on TMK and swapped that thread's thread number with another.

I think 3 words should be allowed if they don't go over board with it.
A-word
D-word
H-word
these should be fine if were responsible with them.
