Members attempting to bypass the censors with "Cu#se" style words or "Cvrse" style alternate spellings will receive a warning and ATS points deduction.
To me , this seems that it would just be a clever way to 'beat the system' , with no penalties imposed.

Maybe you misunderstood , or I wasn't clear enough .
I used the *** myself , and was censored . Someone else comes along and spells it exactly as I did , with the *** and does not get censored .
This would appear to be arbitrary .

You were not censored. The staff was just enforcing the T&C which you agree to.
1b.) Profanity: You will not use profanity in our forums, and will neither post with language or content that is obscene, sexually oriented, or sexually suggestive nor link to sites that contain such content. You will also not use common alternative spellings or net-speak alternative for profane words.
The fact that you were actioned and another wasn't is irrelevant. You are responsible for your posts. It was a violation. We didn't see the other. We can't be everywhere.
