Never. So that's impossible[/quote]

"send a ticket"

@AbsymalTorment: I don't think there's an accessible list of everything that's filtered. Mr. Basil takes care of site related things so you'd have to ask him to provide a full list.

[quote=BobR]@mitarumetaro: True, the filter doesn't actually stop anyone from creative bypasses, but at least it informs the user that the word(s) they're trying to use are against the rules and trying to use them anyway will get them suspended. That's really all we can do other than perhaps blocking their ability to post anything further once they've run up against the filter.[/quote]

Can we get a list of blocked words?

[quote=BobR]@AbsymalTorment: Well, I can't post links to one of the most popular and recognized computer tech web sites either.
You learn to make do with what we've got.

If it wasn't for 6 year old kids wanting to scrawl durty wurds on the boy's bathroom walls we wouldn't have to worry about it.
But they do, and so we do.[/quote]

To be fair.... it's not like the chat filter actually stops people from using "dutry wurds". AugustFoDrizzle, for example, got suspended a bunch a while back for bypassing the filter on every post. One of the top threads in /forum/6 right now is bypassing the chat filter in the thread title. Etc.

[quote=BobR]@microcras As the others said, the filter finds combinations of letters that spell out blocked words no matter where they are in a sentence, even if there's punctuation or spaces between the letters.
So if some of the letters are at the end of one word and the rest of the letters are in the next word, it still detects the blocked word.
(The bit about punctuational is to prevent little kids from trying to spell out bad wurds using ) or ( or / (or whatever) to separate the letters.)

All you can do if the filter picks up on something unintended in your post is to try to find it and re-word the post to avoid the combination of letters.[/quote]

I can't post two band names.

[quote=Micahmer]@microcras: Well yes, Tee DoubleU A Tee would = T/w/a/t/ which would be considered "bad". Filters also work to where if the word is hidden in the word; such as "Sweet+Water" then it may filter it out and be considered forbidden.[/quote]

ah thx, lol i thought u meant tuuat

@microcras: Well yes, Tee DoubleU A Tee would = T/w/a/t/ which would be considered "bad". Filters also work to where if the word is hidden in the word; such as "Sweet+Water" then it may filter it out and be considered forbidden.

[quote=Micahmer]If you're referring to the word Tee DoubleU A Tee. Then yes, it would be considered a tad bad, being it refers to a lady's part down there.[/quote]

no it's t/w/a/t
and i didn't even write it in the guide?///////

send a ticket to basil askin to change it.

If you're referring to the word Tee DoubleU A Tee. Then yes, it would be considered a tad bad, being it refers to a lady's part down there.

Type out the sentence and I can revise.
If the word is SweetH2O, type it like so.
