You're doing a fine job, I just suspected you were too trigger (pun intended) happy and jumped the gun too quickly at slightest provocation. The word 'ass' doesnt seem to be a curse word, considering it has more than two synonyms which mean the same thing, has multiple uses other than to insult but are not considered offensive: 'butt, buttock, bum, glutus maximus', if I traveled back in time and replaced tha word with the other four synonyms under the exact same context and I was not warned for vulgar language, then that would be enough justification for the word not being in the 'vulgar' category.

I am also aware that there are more moderators and admins on the site, a particular issue of which is amny of them come from different nations, with some of them speaking English as a second language. So I wont be surprised if all of you get into conflict over one commonly accepted word in one language but considered vulgar in another. For example, the word 'mate' in UK, Australian and New Zealand is commonly accepted meaning referred to a male friend, whilst this word is less used in place of others more common in say, the United States, the meaning of 'mate' would more commonly, if not accidentally, referred to as a sexual partner rather than just 'a friend' and may be considered sensitive for a site like this, if the majority of admins were American ignorant of other types of English. Your user page doesnt specify what country you come from, and admins like U9000 who says he comes from Denmark might not know or care about small differences like these.

I am not saying that this policy should be outright removed, but suggesting that it should be less arbitrary and more specific.
