If you want to write Herbie Hancock, just do what everyone does.

My favorite is asshole, even though neither of those words are censored individually, together they become this ultimate duo of offensive language.

Bah. Calling someone an asshole, as if this part of the human anatomy were something bad, is so yesterday, Crash.

I think finger + nail are more of an ultimate duo of offensive language, if you think about the words carefully. See? Here it is in action:

Fingernail you, man! Fingernail you!!!

Perverse, isn't it? And it isn't even censored!

We know they CAN change it

They don't want to.

I'm sure, but theres no point saying it can't be changed when it CAN be changed. Why not just say it straight up? The admins can't be bothered setting up a whitelist for the term used as part of an extant word.

We are not all attuned to the technical aspects of vBulletin nor were we chosen to mod because of our technical prowess. In fact just last week the mod forum was full of little tidbits of information that many of us were unaware were even there. We also have very little contact with the administration team except for Yac so forgive us if we do not have every little technical detail of this forum software memorized.

I feel like I was being pretty straight up in the initial post you replied to. I said I think it's asinine but we're unfortunately stuck with it, which I would say is about as straight up an assessment of the situation as you could ask for. If I was somehow implying that it was a technical limitation why the hell would I call it "asinine"?

I just did, and did so in the thread about it months ago.
I've been a mod 3 years, any discussion about the swear filter and the answer is a swift no.

How we even got gay allowed is beyond me.
