Relax: some more swear worlds will be allowed

Enforce: only the three words (crap, piss, hell) allowed

'''Remove: self-explanatory ''' The answer will greatly affect the next poll, which will include the following words... [poll]

Requested swear words that should be on this poll will follow on Part II Why should this be settled by majority vote? If we can't come to a clear consensus on something, we shouldn't change anything at all - we've had no problems closing previous Site Discussions like that before. This Wiki primarily runs on community consensus in all debates that directly influence the site in some way. Why force a change under these circumstances? I went under these circumstances as the community failed to reach a consensus for almost a month. People are were still divided over their opinion and they are complaining to end the discussion soon. Thus, the polls were created to get a whole response in a quick and orderly manner, instead of arguing for another month on what we should do. This is not the first time polls were used Then perhaps this is an issue best left alone. Somehow, when this topic was discussed before, we came to a consensus of some kind then, but if the division here is too great and everyone is having trouble convincing the other side why their point of view is the more logical one, then perhaps this issue should be addressed at a later date -- perhaps everyone who's commented on this will feel differently about their positions by then, and a proper consensus can be reached easier. There's no shame in not making immediate changes when the situation doesn't truly warrant it.
