A few months ago that stupid word filter was added so we couldn't curse anymore. No big deal and I was not one of the many that complained about it, however the excuse that was given being "some members have young children and this would be offensive to them" is a load of garbage when we can post stuff like this on here. This is where I'm sure someone will say "but this is art, or it's a collector's piece so it's okay", but to me, this is would be MUCH more offensive to a parent of a young child than seeing someone say $hit or bada$$. According the to the rules of THIS FORUM, this post should have been deleted the instant it was posted. Instead moderators are commenting on how awesome it is.I promise I'm not tryng to come off as being rude but this really does piss me off. There is and has been for a long time here a double standard in regards to what gets posted on this forum. Also, I understand that this is Justin's forum and he can do with it what he wishes, I have no problem with that at all. I like Justin, I always have and I love his work, but that's another excuse that gets thrown in people's faces just a little too much when something happens and someone wants to make their point about it. If it weren't for this forum and the people that frequent it, Justin and his work would not be as well known or as popular as it is and that is a fact. It's hard to spread the word of something being awesome, if there is no outlet for the word to be spread. That being said, please don't take this as a slam as I already know, a lot of people will, but seriously, this topic is a PERFECT example of the double standard that exists on this forum and is one of the reasons that I rarely post here anymore. For the same reason that there is a word filter as not to offend, there SHOULD NOT be a huge set of Freddy tits staring me in the face, because little children or sensitive parents obviously can't handle it. I do however love this piece and I might pick one up for myself because I think this $hit is totally bada$$!-Joseph<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndIf an internet forum's "double standard" gets you this worked up, I'd hate to see how you get when it comes to something that <b>actually matters</b>.<img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"
