Censored!!
by DavidRPunnett on Tue, May 11 2010 9:21 PM
Hello all,

To help reduce the amount of internet traffic that can leak onto our site, I've started a Spam and Censored words list. From time to time, if you see a perfectly harmless introduction of the word "Censored" within a post. It means the Forum wasn't sure but it decided to take the safe route of replacing the possible offending combination of letters with the word "Censored". The same goes for Spam. When we get advertisements and such, I'll remove them and place a few of their keywords in a list that will prevent future intrusions.

...incidentally, very few tasks are as uncomfortable as creating a censored words list...
However, without being too modest, I was able to pull from a military background to fill in a fairly decent (ok, indecent) list. If any terms escaped me, I'll add them to the list as appropriate.

Thanks,
David R Punnett <-- punnetts.com webmaster
