    Random censoring of words

    Okay, first reported, now bi-ased. Can we get some explanation?

    Re: Random censoring of words

    Explanation:

    My daughter's had swine flu and now a secondary sinus infection for the last 7 days. She coughs non-stop and has lost 4 pounds already because she can't eat well. She's miserable. We're miserable. She's coughing right now. Her normal bedtime is 8, and it's 10:40. It's going to be another long night.

    I needed a laugh. It feels like I see the phrase 'biased against' in every other reported thread, so there ya go.

    Don't cave to Houston & failguy's demands. They're just biased against the Dresloughs anyway. Odds are they both reported your post too

    Too late. I caved. I only did it for a temporary laugh. I'm glad I didn't fall asleep during a lull in the coughing or it might have been up all night.

    Next time, instead of censoring words, are you able to replace them with something else? That would be fun.

    "Clay" could be replaced with "Richard Simmons". "Dee" could be replaced with "Oprah". And "Rockies" could be replaced with "swine flu".

    If somebody posts "Clay and Dee are biased against the Rockies", it would turn into "Richard Simmons and Oprah are biased against the swine flu".

    Think of how much fun you could have with overused names and phrases.

    Re: Random censoring of words

    @Houston - Thanks.

    @BingleBop: I would LOVE to be able to replace words! We tried, but the system just takes whole words and replaces them with whatever character/characters you choose (like *)...but it can only be the same character.

    I don't know if any of you were around for the Smurf rampage... we replaced * with the entire word Smurf, so **** became SmurfSmurfSmurfSmurf. It was a very strange day.

    Really, m-o-r-on is censored?

    Though I must admit that it's not often a bit from Patton Oswalt (4:45) is relevant in a 'Problems w/ the Board' thread

    Re: Random censoring of words

    Clay must have done that one...but the odds of it being used by one user to insult another are pretty dang high. We may have censored that one ages ago during the Great Censoring of '47 and forgotten about it. I'll think about setting 'mor-on' free...

    (I love Patton Oswalt! )
