I've never considered "damn" a swear word, myself. "Crap", on the other hand, is a bit of a swear word, IMHO.

"Damn" is a swear word. You can't pick and choose which words you think are swear words. We either block them all, or block none of them. It makes no sense to block some of them.

tl;dr: can't remove it as long as we have a "no-swearing" rule.

Crap is technically a swear word also. If your going to follow the "no-swearing" policy, you have to add crap.
Except it isn't.

I just don't see how damn can be a "swear" and crap isn't. Makes no sense to me :3
How so? They're not related at all.

It's not like you can replace something like "damn you" with "crap you".
