Still, I don't see anything wrong with an uncensored transcript with a warning. While I do hate trolls who add profanity to a family site, what if the site became more vulgar? (highly unlikely, but still) Would we censor transcripts for something that's not for kids anymore? If the interviews gave TBC [[wikipedia:Freedom_of_speech|freedom of speech]], why can't we? --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 16:07, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

PG-13?

Can you guys give me a good reason why you keep censoring back the interview? Yes, it's wrong to put PG-13 language on a fansite for a PG website, but what's wrong with my foul language warning? I mean, if we censor every swear TBC say, should't we start censoring everytime Strong Bad says "crap" (a swear to some)? --Trogga

HRWiki:About. No swears. Ever. If someone cares that much about it they can read the actual interview. →FireBird
