A certain word has for the last year been tossed around to insult some players, and I got to wondering just where it came from, and if in the real word it had any meaning. This is what I found:
Link
This word appears to be profane, yet it is not in the profanity filter. CCP: Why not? Is it OK to use profanity in the forum as long as its not known by too many people that it is profanity?
To everyone else: If you do not like having this word applied to you, you now have justification to report posts using it. |

If you get insulted by a goon, you have deeper issues than a sensitivity towards profanity. Please visit your user settings to re-enable images. |

Personally, I would be embarrassed for myself if I got upset by someone using that word, because it would mean that I took that person seriously enough to care about they said even after hearing them use that word.

Of course it is. That is called "wit". There are people who have it. And there are people who only have approximately 50% of it. While I am sure a lawyer would make a case that me suggesting that your female parent enjoys having carnal knowledge of members of the canine species while at the same time allowing herself to be ravaged by a donkey is the equivalent to profanity and is an attempt to bypass any filter, really it's not. |

Considering the ease with which the profanity filter can be bypassed, it may as well not exist at all
Also, the word is "pubbie", fool |

It's sort of shocking how few people actually know the correct definition of 'pubbie.' |

Is it not a good idea to know what a word means before you use it? I'm pretty sure my mom told me that when I was five. |
