It isn't that they suck, it's what they censor versus what they leave. If they can't filter out even the most rudimentary slurs, they shouldn't exist at all. The chinks'll be really pissed! However, the sand ******s will be at least partly mollified.

How about this, how about you create a thread about the censorship, that way those of us who want to talk about music of yesterday and today can, and those who want to bitch about the OMAC censorship can have your very own thread to do it in. That way, both side can ignore each other and we can go back to mutual disdain.

OK... Here's the wikipedia list of ethnic slurs:
Let's see if any others get filtered....
List of ethnic slurs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a list of ethnic slurs that are, or have been, used as insinuations or allegations about members of a given ethnicity or to refer to them in a derogatory (critical or disrespectful), pejorative (disapproving or contemptuous), or insulting manner in the English-speaking world. For the purposes of this list, an ethnic slur is a term or word[s] used to insult on the basis of race, ethnicity, or nationality. Each term is listed followed by its country or region of usage, a definition, and a reference to that term (unless a well-referenced Wikipedia article exists).
Quite a few ethnic slurs may be produced by combining a general-purpose insult with the name of ethnicity, such as "dirty Arab", "dirty Jew", "Chinatown yellow ******", "Russian pig", etc. Other common insulting modifiers include "dog", "filthy", etc. Such terms are not included in this list.

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
This is an incomplete list, which may never be able to satisfy certain standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it.
0-9
5 and 2 / 5 by 2 / 4 by 2 / 3 by 2
(England) Cockney rhyming slang for a Jew. Originated in the early 1900s.[1]
A
Abbie / Abe / Abie
(North America) a Jewish male. From the proper name Abraham. Originated before the 1950s.[2]
ABCD
(Subcontinentals in U.S.) "American-Born Confused Desi", used to imply that an American-born South Asian is confused about their cultural identity. ABCD is the most common version of the phrase, but there are variations of it that extend all the way to the letter 'z' in at least two different versions: "American Born Confused Desi, Emigrated From Gujarat, House in Jersey, Kids Learning Medicine, Now Owning Property, Quite Reasonable Salary, Two Uncles Visiting, White Xenophobia Yet Zestful" and "American Born Confused Desi, Emigrated From Gujarat, Housed In Jersey, Keeping Lotsa Motels, Named Omkarnath Patel, Quickly Reached Success Through Underhanded Vicious Ways, Xenophobic Yet Zestful"[3]
Abo / Abbo
(AUS) Australian Aboriginal person. Originally, this was simply an informal term for "Aborigine", and was in fact used by Aboriginal people themselves until it started to be considered offensive in 1950s. In remoter areas, Aboriginal people still often refer to themselves (quite neutrally) as "Blackfellas" (and whites as "Whitefellas"). Although "Abo" is still considered quite offensive by many, the pejorative "boong" is now more commonly used when the intent is to deliberately offend, as that word's status as an insult is unequivocal.[4]
Afro-Saxon
(North America) A young white male devotee of African-American pop culture.[5]
Alabama Blue Gums
(U.S.) a black person.[6][7][8]
Albino
(U.S.) A term for whites, also a derogatory term for light skinned blacks used by darker skinned blacks.[9] (see colorism)
Alligator bait
(U.S.) also "Gator Bait." A black person, especially a black child. More commonly used in states where alligators are found — particularly Florida. First used in the early 1900s, although some hypothesize the term originated in the late 1800s.[10]
Alter kacker / alter kocker (Yiddish) / alter kucker / A.K.
(North America) a disparaging term for elderly Jewish people. The term is of Yiddish origin (literally meaning old shitter). First used in the early 1900s.[11]
Ami
(Germany) American. Formerly specifically for American soldiers, now for Americans in general.[12]
Anglo-pilferer
An Anglo-Australian possibly of convict lineage. Based on the belief that all Anglo-Australians are descended from convicts. Particularly offensive.[13]
Ann
(North America) A white woman to a black person — or a black woman who acts too much like a white one. While Miss Ann, also just plain Ann, is a derisive reference to the white woman, by extension it is applied to any black woman who puts on airs and tries to act like Miss Ann.[14]
Ape
(U.S.) a black person.[15]
Apple
(North America) An American Indian (Native American) who is "red on the outside, white on the inside." Used primarily by other American Indians to indicate someone who has lost touch with their cultural identity. First used in the 1980s.[16]
Argie
(UK) a native of Argentina (also Argie-bargie : any argument, disagreement, or (typically) sporting event involving Argentina or Argentinians), used by the British press during the Falklands War. Coined by Britain's The Sun newspaper in 1982.[17]
Aunt Jemima / Aunt Jane / Aunt Mary / Aunt Sally / Aunt Thomasina
(U.S.) a black woman who "kisses up" to whites, a "sellout", female counterpart of Uncle Tom.[18]
B
Beaner
(U.S.) term widely regarded as derogatory, that refers to people of Mexican descent or, more broadly, mestizos.[19][20][21] The term originates from the prevalence of frijoles pintos and other beans in Mexican food.[21][22]
According to The Historical Dictionary of American Slang, the word was first seen in print in 1965, although the term has reportedly been in use at least since the 1940s (perhaps having evolved from previous slurs such as "bean-eater" and "bean-bandit" that were in use since as far back as the 1910s.)[19]
Although the word is generally considered pejorative, its usage is not always overtly offensive and can be fairly benign depending on the context (similar to the term "frog" for a French person.) Though perhaps once considered strictly offensive, it appears that the term may be going through a phase of melioration, where the negative connotation of an ethnic slur is "reclaimed" by those it is directed against and used in a neutral or even positive manner.[19]
Boche; bosche; bosch
(France; U.S.; UK) a German [from either Bosch, a large German firm, French caboche head, or Alboche, modification of Allemand German].[23]
Bog Irish
(AUS) a person of common or low class Irish ancestry.[24][25]
Bohunk
(North America) a person of east-central European descent. Originally referred to those of Bohemian (now Czech Republic) descent. Was commonly used toward Ukrainian immigrants during the early 20th century.[26]
Boong / bong / bung
(Aus) Australian aboriginal.[27] Related to the Australian English slang word bung, meaning "dead", "infected", "dysfunctional". From bung, to go bung "Originally to die, then to break down, go bankrupt, cease to function [Ab. bong dead]".[28] Highly offensive. [First used in 1847 by JD Lang, Cooksland, 430][29]
Boonga / boong / bunga / boonie
(New Zealand) a Pacific Islander [alteration of boong].[30]
Bounty Bar
A Bounty chocolate bar, being composed of coconut coated with chocolate, is white on the inside and brown on the outside. As with wigger, this is a both a subcultural and ethnic slur. The immediate target is denigrated for having the cultural values of a different ethnic group, with the implication that that ethnic group is bad or inferior. Coconut and Oreo are used in the same way.[31]
Brownie
(U.S.) a. a person of mixed white and black ancestry; a mulatto. b. (U.S.) a young, brown-skinned person 1940s-1950s[32]
Buffie
a. black person.[33]
b. (U.S.) a young, brown-skinned person 1940s-1950s[32]
C
Camel Jockey
(North America) a person of Middle-Eastern descent.[34]
CBCD
(Subcontinentals in Canada) - Canadian-Born Confused Desi - Similar to ABCD, but used for Canadian-born South Asians who are confused about their cultural identity.[35]
Celestial
a race-specific term used to describe Chinese immigrants in the United States, Canada and Australia during the 19th century. The term was widely used in the popular mass media of the day. The term is derived from their status as subjects of the Son of Heaven, the Chinese Emperor.
Charlie
(North America) a mildly derogatory term used by African Americans, mainly in the 1960s and 1970s, to refer to a white person (from James Baldwin's novel, Blues For Mr. Charlie). The same word was also a generally non-pejorative slang term used by American troops during the Vietnam War as a short-hand term for North Vietnamese guerrillas: it was shortened from "Victor Charlie", the NATO phonetic alphabet for Viet Cong, or VC.[36]
Chee-chee
a Eurasian half-caste [probably from Hindi chi-chi fie!, literally, dirt][37]
Chinaman
(Worldwide English) Chinese person, used in old American west when discrimination against Chinese was common.[38] The term generates controversy when still used in geographic places associated or resembling Chinese. Though it is still heard in the lyrics to the 70s song "Kung Fu Fighting", it tends to generate objections in modern times, especially in the US. Asian-American is the preferred nomenclature. See Chinaman (disambiguation) for other uses.
Cheese-eating surrender monkey
(UK, US, Canada) A Frenchman, from the perceived proclivity of the French to surrender in military confrontations and the huge variety of French cheeses available.
Ching Chong
(U.S. and Canada) Mocking the language of or a person of perceived Chinese or East Asian descent. An offensive term which has raised considerable controversy when used by celebrities such as Rosie O'Donnell.[39]
Chink
(U.S. and UK) used to refer to people of perceived Chinese descent, and by extension for other East Asians. Considered extremely derogatory, although at least one US school proudly used the term as a sports mascot until the 1980s.[40]
Clog Wog
(AUS) a person of Dutch origin, not always offensive.[41]
Cholo
(Latin American Spanish, USA) used to refer to people of perceived amerindian descent. It may be derogatory depending on circumstances. Peruvian president Alejandro Toledo was nicknamed "el Cholo".[42]

a Jew, an allusion to Jewish deicide
Coconut
(New Zealand) A Pacific Islander. Named after the coconut, the nut from the coconut palm.[43]
(U.S. and UK) A black person who is trying to be ‘white’. [44]
Coolie
(North America) unskilled Asian labor, usually Chinese (originally used in 19th-century for Chinese railroad labor). Possibly from Hindi/Telugu kuli, day laborer.[45] Also racial epithet for Indo-Caribbean people, especially in Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago and South African Indians, where it is considered on par with "******".
Coon
(U.S. and U.K) a black person. Possibly from Portuguese barraco, a building constructed to hold slaves for sale (1837),[46][47] or from the c. 1830 American folk song "Zip Coon". See also Minstrel show, Coon song.
Coonass, or Coon-ass
(U.S.) a person of Cajun ethnicity.[48]

noun. Used as a disparaging term for a black person.[54] See also Minstrel show.
Dhoti
In Nepal the word Dhoti is often used as an ethnic slur against the Madhesi community of Nepal and Indians by the majority population of Nepal. This may be because of the popularity of dhotis in the terai region and the bordering Indian states.[55]
Dink
an Asian, esp. a Vietnamese. Also used as a disparaging term for a North Vietnamese soldier or guerrilla in the Vietnam War. Origin: 1965–70, Americanism; cf. Australian slang dink Chinese person; perh. back formation from dinky, reinforced by rhyme with Chink[56]
Dogan, dogun
(CAN) Irish Catholic [19th century on; origin uncertain: perhaps from Dugan, an Irish surname].[57]
Dune coon
(US) Derogatory term used for Arabs and other peoples of the Middle East.[58]. Popularised in David O. Russell's movie about Gulf War I Three Kings (1999).

Free Stater

(U.S. military slang) a derogatory term for foreigners, especially south-east Asians.[72] The etymology of this racial slur is shrouded in mystery, disagreement, and controversy.[73] The Oxford English Dictionary admits that its origin in "unknown".[74]
* According to Random House Unabridged Dictionary, "a native of Southeast Asia or the South Pacific, esp. when a member of an enemy military force. any dark-skinned foreigner, esp. one from the Middle East." [75]
* According to Princeton University Dictionary, it described as "a disparaging term for an Asian person (especially for North Vietnamese soldiers in the Vietnam War)." [75]
* According to Online Etymology Dictionary, "1899, U.S. military slang for 'Filipino' during the insurrection there, probably from a native word, or imitative of the babbling sound of their language to American ears (cf. barbarian). The term goo-goo eyes 'soft, seductive eyes' was in vogue c.1900 and may have contributed to this somehow. Extended over time to 'Nicaraguan,' 'any Pacific Islander' (World War II), 'Korean' (1950s), 'Vietnamese' and 'any Asian' (1960s)." [75]
* According to The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, "Used as a disparaging term for a person of East Asian birth or descent. Perhaps alteration of earlier goo-goo, native inhabitant of the Philippines, Pacific islander." [75]

****** / Niger / nig / nigor / nigra / nigre (Caribbean) / nigar / niggor / niggur / nigga / niggah / niggar / nigguh
(International) An American-English slur originally used to refer to dark skinned people but has developed a dual meaning in the late 20th century. It is derived from the Spanish term negro, meaning black colour - not black race, which may also be offensive because of its close association and pronunciation to ******. ****** was widely used in early American culture, without risk of being politically incorrect, to disparage African-Americans. This use coincided with slavery within the Americas and continued wide use until its lack of social acceptance in the late 1950s to mid 1960s.
****** has since taken a dual meaning. Depending on the context and locale, its interpretation can range from being deeply disparaging to acknowledging kinship or closeness. The latter interpretation, and its proliferation in late 20th century pop culture among some African-Americans, has led to the perception of the term ****** being acceptable and widely used within African-American communities between African-Americans. The usage between persons of the opposite race or non-blacks - especially when used by a white person towards a black person - is not as acceptable. The strife between pop culture and politically correct culture has led to attempts to avoid words with similar pronunciation - e.g. Niger, niggardly, and negro. Some use derivations such as nig, nigga, niggaz, and nizzle to reflect kinship while avoiding a direct pronunciation of ******. This is seen as less offensive. Others completely avoid the usage outside of scholastics.

Because of the large number of Pakistanis living in Bradford, the city is sometimes referred to as 'Bradistan', mixing Bradford and Pakistan. It is also sometimes called 'Pakiford'.

My question is not so much "Why do they filter only 2 words" but more of the "Why do they think that we get our kicks out of calling people ******-****s?"
How often do we use those words maliciously nowadays? Sure, some people may take offense to it, but if we start filtering everything that [i]could[/b] be offensive, NSG wouldn't exist! It think the onus is on the reader to be not offended, or to realise that these words are not used in a malicious manner.

I think it s quote funny that words like ****** is left out but words like wog and towel head is allowed.
And I noticed on the Wiki list the term Hymie was used which is an insult to Jews, though how I do not know. But I was intrigued by this because Hymie is the name of the robot in Get Smart, which was written by Mel Brooks a Jew himself, I wonder if he had an special meaning behind that.
