In UO if you turn on the obscenity filter and look at the sign of a
freshly placed house you recieve: a br*** sign. Normally its just a brass
sign. Always struck me as kinda funny.
Granted this could be fixed code wise (check for spaces) but as Matt said
players could easily bypass it.
IIRC this same discussion took place a while back ago. During the
discussion someone mentioned that maintaining a mature environment is
probably the best route to take. With a mature environment even a
snot-nosed punk would be reluctant to be offensive on purpose.
