Re: Word censoring
URgh, this is the complete opposite of anything good. I can understand the censor but completely limiting my ability to post with a swear?
Re: Word censoring
Swearing was never allowed before, you can still manually insert the former asterisks. Alternatively, buy a Profanity Thesaurus.

Until I get a more robust anti-spam mod on here, it's just keyword matching. This should catch the repeat offenders such as...

I agree with lys.
Welcome to an internet message board, where every answer comes with a free side of sarcasm or criticism. Enjoy your stay.

Wat, the censor randomly stopped me from making a post saying "Yarp". It highlighted nothing and when I resubmitted the form, it worked fine.

Re: Word censoring
If you don't want to add the asterisks, just change the word.
Plus, you get the benefit of having a more readable message with words that aren't censored out.
Oh, and at least with this method you actually have control over the content of your post, as opposed to some filter replacing it with asterisks or nonsense words.

Re: Word censoring
at first I didn't like the new one, but on second thought, I do. People should really think about what they're posting before they do. If they don't, they'll just look like more of an idiot when they try to "work around" it so it works out in the end both ways!
Re: Word censoring
Haha, I can say ass with this filter, but I can't say ass-hat unles I'm special and type asshat

Unfortunately a "stupid" filter would be a bit too hard to implement, I imagine.
