It may have been hijacked, but for good reason. Please note my post on just which slurs are being censored and what is allowed to go through. It seems to me that there's no way OMAC can avoid charges of racism or sexism or any number of isms if it seriously wishes to censor posts.
If I were a particularly sensitive member of the PC clan, and I'm not, I'd make a stink, and a loud one. Instead, I'm posting the link here and wondering just what the hell is going on. Especially this post (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14026603&postcount=26).

Your music thread was stillborn.
The censorship was discovered in your thread -- that couldn't be helped.

You could've at least made another thread about it instead of hijacking mine.
Alittle common coursety is all I ask. I saw I ws going to hijack the Sexism in Commerical thread, so I did the right thing and made a seperate thread for my own topic instead of hijacking that thread.

Okay, so where do I go to report this odd censorial injustice? Or am I making too much of it? Just strikes me as odd that all we get asterisks on is slurs for Africans/Aborigines and vaginas.

I guess I'll just drop it. I didn't think Moderation was the place for this discovery, but my only other idea was Technical.

Hey, the defenition of an idiot is someone who repeately does the same thing over and over and expects different results. I answered his question the first time, but he apparently ignored it and kept on asking the same question.

That's the definition of insanity, not idiocy.
