Does this mean that something I read on the Internet might not be true?
S2000 Talk makes a lot more sense under this paradigm.

Being in college I tend to use Wiki alot, but I will admit I do use it as a stepping stone to look up other information. Most teachers will not value a citation of information from Wiki, so we can't use it on papers that have a big percentage of our grade.

For your advanced lesson in cynical suspension of belief, you can move on from S2000 Talk to Street Encounters.
I'm going to have to reexamine my entire Internet experience now.
Including the pron.

Mike, I got it -- I just didn't know the word was censored and was harassing Raymo. But thanks -- I'm blonde enough in spirit that you can't be too sure with me.

It just shows the uselessness of server software trying to restrict specific words. One other board I was would not allow you to use the word "cockpit", but "pron" and "fu<k" and what have you make such rules ineffective anyway.
