    You can say “fuck”, here. See?

        Yes, they can. I personally don’t even curse, by default, but I’m not offended to read the random swear, unless it is actively used to be an insult towards someone, which was not the case here.

        I am interested in making sure people are allowed and expected to express themselves freely in this space, unless they break the “rule” I mention above.

        Don’t censor yourself. If there is need for a swear, use it. Just don’t use swearing in place of proper speech.

        I do not have the slightest idea of what you intended to convey.

          Asterisks are associated with hunter2. That’s all they meant.

            I’m either too stupid or too old to understand the underlying joke. Maybe both.

              It wasn’t the appropriate time for the joke other than seeing asterisks. It’s usually associated with passwords. Here’s some information on the meme if you haven’t seen it, it was unclear based on what you said. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/hunter2

              Re: too old, the meme dates back to 2004. It’s an oldie in internet times.

                  Or too young? 😉 It’s an old IRC quote that did the rounds. Here’s an archive of the original: https://bash-org-archive.com/?244321

                  The “hunter2” joke above was playing into the idea of a dodgy user saying “you can type something sensitive like your password and the server will replace it with asterisks. See: *******. That was my password! Now you try” leading to the response of “hunter2”, the password of a guilable user. It didn’t really work in this context as a joke, and now I feel sad to discover that bash.org is no more 😩

        Is there an AI joke in there somewhere or am I missing something?
