Welcome to the site, glad to have you here.
Yes we have the language filter on. One of the goals here was to keep thinks a little more young user friendly including avatars and screen names. I was afraid to let my step-son read half the threads on the other site because of the language and such there, so we wanted to avoid that here.

You can still have fun and help make it an even better site, we're just trying to keep it a little cleaner for the younger readers.
