Bypassing the censor is considered not completely bleeping out the word you're saying with asterisks or dashes. If you do this and get reported, you will receive a verbal warning, followed by a note and then violations for each proceeding instance of this.

Do not bypass the censor at all. Let the censor do it itself or completely bleep out the ------- words you want to use.

So to reiterate

• 1st report - Verbal Warning
• 2nd report - Note
• 3rd report - Violation
• 4th report - Violation with vios for each successive instance of censor bypassing.

If multiple bypassings occur in a single instance, post, comment or report, then mods can jump ahead with severity of their ruling. This guide is for individual instances of censor bypassing.

In short, from here on out you must COMPLETELY censor every word that would normally be censored. Any letters at all are considered bypassing and you can be vio'd for it if you are caught by a community member or mod.

Do not bypass the censor. Stop using bad language on the site. I'm sorry it has to be this way, but we need consistency on this.

Example - Let's take the F-word

No vio: ---

Vio: f--- , fu--- f--k etc
