I reckon it's gonna get a whole lot worse as google tries to 'fix' the world... Maybe get that donation page up again as a bit of a buffer? Rather than do just avatar bets when someone makes an outlandish prediction we could add on a $10 buck donation to be made by the loser.

Is it time to code word every cuss word? that could actually be quite fun if we ran voting for replacement names?
There's no plugin to manage a list easily
The fluffybunny and piston wristed gibbon filters work but it's not really extendable to a long list of words (I'm doing a regex match). The f word by itself has so many variations
There are plugins to put asterisks everywhere. But I think that looks f***'n s**

@Duluth language, language!!
Bugg-er, that would have been pretty funny.
Sigh, clean-ish language here we come.

Nah, its a relatively small amount of money. We could cover it if we had too
The last time we did donations we got too much. We have nothing to spend it on... At this rate we'll need more disk space in 6-8 years and our CPU barely gets above 5%

Might I suggest the 'Strippers' thread for spending ideas

Maybe tall poopy is urban slang for an enormous wanger.?

ah forget it
plus you can't put astrisks everywhere because that are all formatting short cuts!!

@Duluth I'll make an effort to reign it in, I got pretty carried away with swearing in the CWC Final thread, however justified that swearing may have been (surprised that didn't get flagged).
-
flagging discussion boards for swearing is puritanical bullshit at its absolute worst.

@mariner4life advertisers don’t want their ads next to certain content. It’s not the language so much as it’s guess at the context.
We had references to adult entertainers, death camps and liberal use for the f word. God knows what it thought was being discussed.

me either, but it sounds bloody interesting
serious question. Do advertisers really (i mean behind closed doors) care where their ads are seen, as long as they are seen?

If they were just flagging swearing it would happen all the time
It'll be the swear words near other words triggering the algorithm
The first time we're fairly sure if was the f word near another word that was misinterpreted. It thought someone was discussing having relations with someone who was no longer living.
This time? Not so obvious
Maybe the career of Kelleher's ex?
Maybe the number of swear words in posts mentioning coerced german accommodation from the middle of last century? Although that isn't sexual.
Maybe it was the piston wristed gibbon references that got around the word censor?But less swearing overall would mean less chance of triggering it

@mariner4life They are more terrified of the twitterati outrage mob who happen to be the same folk writing articles for the majority of online retarded news publications. www.changetheterms.com to give you an idea.
Most normal people don't care and advertisers don't seem to understand that or want to risk the bad publicity.
