And since 3rd parties most likely print the checks, the safe thing is to omit those items
from the data so the 3rd party doesn't print it anywhere.

You may not realize it, but some people can go to the bank with a check that
has "fuckmaster11" and deposit the check; but 3 days later they get
another check back in the mail with a letter stating "Your account has been close".
You can then choose to promote programs called 'look at us we're too fucking stupid to have a pro sounding name as we have the mentality of 12 year olds' or not. To promote hundreds of 'normal' named programs, and have the same affiliate name on most of them, without an instant way to see who the check is from is a problem no-one should have in 2013.
