I believe that if enough people come here to sign this, not only stating there name, but also speaking about how this is wrong.

I belive that the whole thing about the word 'an us' being banned from the forums in not only text but sigs also is creating more of a mess than a solution. I believe that people have the right to express there opinions to a ceartan degree, and just because someone says its not cool or its not funny, doesnt make it wrong to have. There are many other sigs out there with alot worse things. If you can use ass on the forum but not 'an us', there is something truly wrong because ass is actually a cuss word and 'an us' is only a body part.
ass1 Pronunciation[as] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun
1. a long-eared, slow, patient, sure-footed domesticated mammal, Equus asinus, related to the horse, used chiefly as a beast of burden.
2. any wild species of the genus Equus, as the onager.
3. a stupid, foolish, or stubborn person.
Ass, is not a cuss word. But if you use it correctly it violates the rules. It's all in how you use the words. If you are engaging in a discussion about body parts...then yeah, it shouldnt' be filtered.
GIVEN that I have NEVER seen anyone discuss said body part just to do that....but instead put in siggy's of shoving triangles in said reason, or putting it in said region, or other sexually explicit remarks...I say the ban should stand until such time as the war is over and a non-biased approach can be reached.
