OK, so I thought I'd just check what's actually allowed and not… Here are the relevant bits from the terms of service (I've bolded the important bits:

Prohibited usage includes but is not limited to uploading, posting or otherwise making available or promote:

1. any Content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortuous, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, harm minors or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable, pornography and "adult content";
2. any Content that contains nudity, violence, pornography, "adult content" or contains links to any other web site with such materials
3. any Information that you know is false or misleading
4. any Content that promotes illegal activities

Now, I don't know whether basic swearing comes under vulgar or obscene content or not, but I think it'd make sense for us to keep things clean to be on the safe side. Besides, inventing new swears is fruckn' fun.

otherwise objectionable
that covers cuss words - if someone reads this and doens't like it then they can compain and pop goes the web site.

but I'm guessing they're not running a content checker over it. but best to play safe.
