Wow I didn't know HN even had obscenity filters, and I've been here for many years.

Guess that's a credit to the general civility of the community.

That explains it, I was very confused by what I assumed was self-censoring, since the comment didn’t actually clarify anything. I wish there was an accepted way to disambiguate asterisks from server side filters.

I assumed this was a riff on the classic bash.org transcript.

But we know there are no server side filters here. At least I never had any profanity censored by anything other than the Mk 1 brain.

No obscenity filters, but there is a pretty good password filter I hear. For example, my password 'hunter2' will be all **** to you

Isn’t it nice how some traditions do stick around. It’s been a while, Cthon98!

Sadly, this is one of those things that, soon, if not now, only the olds will know about.

Like telling people asking for game cheats to use Alt-F4.
