for much the same reason that you can snicker on the forums, but s**%@#*ing (a perfectly respectable word, thank you - predates the slur by a century or two) is right out. Not to mention eating the delicious fruit known as the g@*@*.
the offending series of letters in this case is (or was, a year back - don't know if they're still around) a goldselling company that was sufficiently obnoxious that Blizz censored its name.
I'll probably get in trouble if I mention the name, but "talbuk owns" and "bukowski" both encapsulate the four letters that used to designate that goldseller, and that's why they're censored by the in-game filter.
