Censor profanity (For guests)

So since kids may use Planet Minecraft too, I think the site should censor some sensitive curse words, except for "damn" or "hell." It applies everywhere, including descriptions of projects, texture packs, data packs, forums and such. However, it should apply to guests only. If you make an account and turn on a couple settings, it lets you see profanity if you want.
I had an idea for a couple options that you can still see profanity:
-An option to see or hide bad words with a simple button on your account.
-Until the person who made the account is at least 13 to see some, or 18 to see all profanity.

  Have something to say?

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions! But Palaeos, if nothing will be given if the user is at a certain age, then maybe it can be optional for all users, maybe for those who don't like seeing profanity on here?

To reply to Cyprezz:
Thanks for accepting this ticket!

Not a moderator but an additional note: you have to be 13 to sign up for the site in general. Being 14 to see some swears doesn't necessarily make much sense.

As Palaeous mentioned, we don't allow swears when used inappropriately such as being directed at other users or their work in a negative context. Is there a particular use or user that prompted this ticket?

Generally swearing censored in chat and outright disallowed in many cases, the exception being wall posts where its allowed to a point, but not to be directed at or about a person or group. The site is meant to be family friendly and our ToS (like many places on the internet) requires a person to be 13 to make an account here and we don't allow anything special for being above a certain age, all users are subject to the same rules regardless of age.
