Word Filter needs to be tweaked

Pass, Assume, Mass and any other word with A.S.S in it is filtered out.
We have put up with this for years on EONs sites, but for some reason the word Condominium does not come up often with Condom filtered out

Yeah I just saw that on a thread where as.semblies was edited.

Somebody's messing with settings for ridiculous reasons.

The previous filters have been fine.

I am the one thats been adjusting the fiters. It should be fine when you say things like assume but if you spell just hte word *** it should be filtered out.

Yup, i see assume in that.. do you guys?

Gotcha. It's just it was a surprise change. And if you decided to tweak settings today because of a relative newbie complaining, me thinks there's more to the story...

Aren't you supposed to be off today for football?

And so what if there was/is? If you are referring to the 'Locked' thread in this section, perhaps you (and others) might have changed your tone if you knew what the person(s) typed to cause him to throw up the 'red flag.' Since you weren't/aren't privy, you need not worry. The situation was handled and dealt with appropriately.

They still need tweaking. I understand the whole family friendly atmosphere we want to have about here, but

****pit

isn't a bad word. It messed up this story a little:
https://themustangsource.com/f650/al...ed-one-491267/

Which was a nice story, but zOMG a bad word!!!



Also, **** and pissing is ok? But (alternate for dang) isn't? Interesting indeed.

I'm not trying to razz too much, and I don't even know how filters work here, but... that's a messed up filter you're trying to fix, Scothew. I'm so sorry you have to deal with it at all, honest.

Oh, and this thought: Would is be terribly awful if I chose to report anyone trying to get around the filters by postin' pa$$ or c0cked or something like that? Because man, if I can't say it, nobody should be able to! (Those are examples, and not attempts to bypass. They will be the only ones I do.)

/****ed and loaded - gun term, but not any more?
//Game**** fans are NOT going to be happy about this.
///Ok, **** isn't allowed but (the alternate name for a cat) is?! I dare to post the actual word for fear of being beaten.
////I'm gonna get beaten anyway, I bet. Ah well.

Of course its a learning curve and when I reset the filters to where it was previously, i have to do some tweaking. It should be better now.
