Rob is still fixing the glitches as they crop up. If you know ones that need to be fixed post it here.

Well if you didn't want me to post in this thread, why didn't you just say so?

Does assassin make the grade? |

Editing imagined profanity out of legit words (ie: do***entary)by the way is more than just unwarranted censorship, its blatant stupidity. Can we all say "witch hunt"?
This is supposed to be a forum consisting of an adult population not a 3rd grade Sunday school class. If ya don't like the language...dont let the door hit you in the azz on your way out.

appea*****t! Blocked out "*****".
Guys, this is really ridiculous! This is on a par with telling a 19 year old he is old enough to die for his or her country, but too young to drink alcohol. This is the same thing. Telling a bunch of adults that we are not allowed to use "adult language." I am really thinking about moving all my crap to USMilVetsdotcom. Over there, there is no "net-nanny" telling me my language is not fit to be written by an adult. This thing doesn't even let us post words that have questionable letter arrangements as a part of words that are fine otherwise. Doc Commander |

Why are the letters "o n" and "o u" blocked? What profanity has those letter combinations in them that the net-nanny doesn't like? For that matter, why are perfectly sane anatomical and physiological function names blocked? s e m e n is blocked; I wonder if p e n i s would be blocked? Let's see: *****. The word s e x might be blocked, too; let's try that one: sex. I guess it made it.
Can't the net nanny be fixed so that an offending word by itself is blocked, but when it's a normal part of another word allowed? Someone suggested adjusting it so that an "offending" word needs to be preceded and followed by a space in order to be blocked. That seems like an eminently reasonable solution. |

USAF-76-80:---{Got your email btw. That particular Poster that got me "tweeked" is a never-served civilian who only posts anti-American trash.}
Well yes,,, glad you asked. First is my tagline next to my avatar. It is Latin. It is the word for "Thinking" and I doubt that most folks would say that is profanity..?!? Yesterday I tried to say something BUT--each time I tried to login to post it said "ERROR"... Another word was zapped in the Middle East Section when a long time poster mentioned the type of rockets that the PLO/Hamas bunch are shooting into Israel. The word starts with a Q and ends with an M. As to keeping the boards clean---that's good. This place does NOT need to be turned into a bus station restroom stall. |

'cooter' ? is it even a word ? </edit> regards JakobA "Good is better than bad cause its nicer" Mammy Yokum (as related by Al Capp) |

It is not a matter of 'fixing glitches' the whole notion of censoring by substitution is fundamentally flawed (sort of like using ActiveX on the web). There is no way it can be done right. "Good is better than bad cause its nicer" Mammy Yokum (as related by Al Capp) |

The phrases "magna c u m laude" and "summa c u m laude." The word "circumstance." The word "assignment."
Agree with an above post: what the hell is up with censoring o n? When letters are a part of a word or recognized phrase, or even a foreign language (such as Latin), the net nanny goes nuts. Hell - the net nanny IS nuts. Edit to add: whaddaya know - the words made it through. Let's try: magna cum laude. Wow, that made it too! Light at the end of the tunnel! |

Anus. As in, today I lost a kitten due to a maggot infestation above his anus that penetrated his GI tract. Does that work? What about Enos? As in Enos Pork is one of my favorite cartoon strip characters...?
