In other user accounts? Yes.

I'm doing the taboo thing of marking my own issue as verified. As it happened on BYOND RPG and my own blog.
I was actually the one submitting the post on this one, I sent it to Tiberath, and we both ended up narrowing it down to "was hitting" at the same time.
Good find. This is probably intended to prevent certain obvious ways of avoiding a simple swear filter, but there's no reason we can't just hide those posts/blogs on our own as it happens.
Don't forget about "superb itch"

Blogs don't exist anymore, and as far as I'm aware no other part of the site has a swear filter.
