So can we see it?
For editors---how do you deal with egregious cuss words?

I don't really see anything wrong with it. It is the author's voice, and unless it's extremely excessive (the whole review is basically "fuck this, fuck that, fuck the other" fuck every other word, I say leave it in. I don't think words like "fuck" et al are any worse (or better) than using cock, pussy, etc. in reviews, and this is an adult site. Granted, most people don't use them in reviews, but it's not against the EoC. If you think it's completely over the top, you can send it to an administrator or point me towards it and I'll take a look, but really you should concentrate on making the review readable and fixing spelling errors.

Thanks for letting us know, Sammi! I guess I already came to that, so it's good to find out we figured everything out satisfactorily.

No, the way we understood it, any suggestions for improving a review (like by adding extra info in them) fall under a Mentor's role, not an Editor's. Editors are just supposed to catch things that are really wrong in the review as it's written (like TOS violations), and then stick to the spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc. edits.

As a military brat, it doesn't bother me. Not in print anyway. In person it depends on context. Referencing what Alan & Michele said, are editors allowed to return reviews with comments along the lines of "What about the strength and features of the included Vibe? How fast did the lube dry?" etc? The editors role seems pretty limited otherwise.

I personally wouldn't want to read a review like that. I have nothing against using the word fuck a few times, but used excessively is just ridiculous.
I think I would honestly take the review less seriously if it was like that.
