#dont-use-the-home-row

Simply don't use the home row on your keyboard. This means that the following characters are banned: A S D F G H J K L (And, for extension, : ; " ').

Wait, wouldn't that mean you can't send messages unless you're on mobile? (Enter is on the home row) Also, I'm guessing no newlines, for the same reason.

Enter is allowed, as on the keyboard, there is an enter on the number pad which isn't on the home row, which, since nobody can tell the difference, is allowed.

If you use Dvorak , can you use the letter "D" because it's not on the home row on Dvorak?

US-QWERTY would be chosen, since that's the most commonly used keyboard, making it depend on whatever keyboard layout a poster has wouldn't work at all. By that logic, you would be allowed to go to the character map and click any letter you want to copy it, because you're not using your keyboard.

Even if forbidden characters are allowed to be censored out or replaced, I think messages would be quite hard to read.
