To answer your question, substituting the "@" symbol for "a" when typing profanity does not constitute effective avoidance of the general forum prohibition on profanity. (Or "!" for "i," or any other form one sees 12-year-olds using). If you see profanity on the forum, click Report Abuse and it will be removed.

Years upon years ago, when I was a newbie, an old-timer told me that "if you can't make your point without using profanity, it's not much of a point you're making."

You still didn’t explain why besides removing my post I was banned for 48 hours?????Do you ban everyone that gets the abuse button or just remove their post? All I’m asking is to be treated the same as everyone else.
