[casual_games] Bad Word List?

[Greg McClanahan]

Some of the words on that list are interesting, specifically 666, com, gay,
and Jew. And this is just the base that people add to?

At what point do profanity filters become more offensive than the language
they actually filter?

I also question what would happen if our vice president joined this chat and
people started addressing him by his first name.
