See my thread here (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=114601)

The system would not except the word p*r*i*c*k*l*y, now this is flat dumb. I thought people here were supposed to be adults. Are people so sensitive that they have to be guarded from this type of thing?

We are adults but, did you see a sign saying "no children allowed" when your registerd?

Good, no one else say it to. because, it isn't there. We have young people here to so censorship, leave it in place. We are grown ups but lets not mess with young minds ok?

We don't want a kid going "insert random censored word in here" to his mommy now would we?

Yea, but pr!ckly is hardly a word that needs to be censored.

Man, I remember when the Matsu:banana::banana::banana::banana:a CD/DVD-ROM drive in this laptop broke.

Oh, there it goes again.....

We all know what's said underneath (and if you don't know the words, well....that's actually a good thing :)), if you said :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:ly as is, we'd all know what was said.

HOWEVER, because we do know the words doesn't mean we should have their veils lifted. The root words are censored for a reason.

Yes, but isn't there a way, like in IPB, to set so that only the root word is filtered? I.e. :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: is filtered, but pr!ckly isn't.

Its funny though beause we may have a member from Sc.unthorpe who happens to have a Matsu5hi7a cd-drive or compressor and is having a hard time with some incredibly pri<kly drivers!

Just another thought: I don't know all the ages of people here but we have one real sharp guy on a DC team that is 13..You would never know it by his writing but he is really 13..
If you need to justify it just imagine your 13 year older is on the forum and then you'll agree..
No, don't tell me your not old enough to have a 13 year older, just imagine you are!:D
Now Runmc and I are old enough to have 13 year old grandchildren!:(

fixing that too.

Like Ron pointed out, use another word.

We cater to all age groups, keeping the site clean is high priority to me.
