        I never seem to get appropriately coded romance scams.

        I guess the RFI from my computer is jamming the gaydar.

        I didn’t get one either ☹️ I’m so starved for female attention I’d happily speak to a romance scammer, just can’t bring myself to do it on a non open platform.

        If you do it the former way, you’re supposed to use a zero as well: “Pr0n.”

        Why the hell do you care enough to post that here? What difference is it to you if they type pr0n or porn? The ‘you’re not cussing enough’ crowd confuses the fuck out of me

            Who put you in charge of what words people choose to use do you have some form of badge for this?

        Goddamn I cant believe I have to explain this. Typing porn as pron or pr0n is funny because it connotates a rather transparent way of trying to hide your porn collection on a computer used by others/relatives. It in no way has anything to do with censoring. Stop getting faux outraged by every little non-thing. (he said outraged by a non-thing)

          My stupid state has me blocked from many of the mainstream pr0n sites :( Too cheap to get a vpn though.

            It’s fine, all the VPNs are run by feds!

            Just buy the services of a prostitute like God intended.
