I think you have a misunderstanding of the first amendment. Censoring e90post wouldn't violate your first amendment rights in the slightest, unless it was the government doing the censoring.
That said, I really don't support censorship in an internet forum. To my mind, words are meant to express thoughts, and can only be judged to be good or bad within that context. To me, a bad word is one that fails to convey meaning. Sometimes a person really does get f#$%in pissed off. I suppose I take the more pragmatic view of language.
