I'm asking for something that only blocks swear words. While I rarely see one of those around this forums, I still ask for it since I... just... Idk, think they're a little disrespectful? So plz, anyone who is organizing the site, attend my wish! :?

In this case, there are specialized plugins that detect the checkmate and block it for you personally. Use https://www.google.com/ !

Idk, that sounds like a bit of a stretch, especially since it's easier to just maybe ignore curse words other people put in their posts? You're bound to see/hear them wherever you go, so it's better to just put up with it.

What's the harm with occasional swear words? Excessive swearing and insulting are covered by the rules anyway.

Maybe kids who aren't used to swearing don't want to see it? Idk, seems like a bad influence. If they see other people swearing then they'll probably be more likely to start using these words themselves.
We can't assume that every person of age 13+ uses foul language on a regular basis, and I don't think a forum for Mario should be the place that causes them to start doing so.

While I can see the appeal for something like a Swear Word Blocker, It honestly won't do much...
Sure It could be used here to automatically censor Swears like you can have it in Video games, but being on the Internet you still will see swear words in most places around.

Not to mention, you will still encounter them also outside of the Internet so you will still hear them unless you cut off your ears or have earphones in.

Then again, they don't belong in a Mario Forum anyway, and most people who do constantly use them try to be edgy teens imo.

That's just my Input on this, don't take it too much into this.
