It goes down to this; if the word you're trying to use is censored, don't use it or try to make the word look like the one you're trying to spell. Such as replacing s's with $'s etc.
Mainly the censor is there to prevent people from being vulgar and insulting towards others, if a member could confront another and bluntly insult them, this wouldn't be much of a community would it?
There are many other ways you can express yourself as opposed to using curse words; just don't, there isn't a need. Find a thesaurus or something, the censor is what it is for the benefit of all members, to stray away from harsh insults and vulgarity. The words we use in every day life aren't always correct, curse words being an example, and there's some less minor than others. We all know the effect outwardly insulting someone with the use of curse words can do, it's a silly question as to why you would ask they are disabled. Maybe if we were all a little more mature, and used them in context, then it would be fine, but that is most certainly wishful thinking.
Personally I see no reason for debate, there is no need to risk possible quarrels or insults by giving a member more words in which they can make their sentence more negative (not in a good way), just refrain from using them in general, if you must, just reword to something that is allowed, all you need is a little rephrasing.
The rule on censor bypass is; if you try to use a banned word, then attempt to use that same word by other means, then it is called censor bypass.
