    "Bits power" (without the space) is censored

    Did I miss something? Is "B P" and "Bits power" (without the spaces) now censored ? I get the banana filter when I try to type out either of those .

    (Just testing above)

    I don't know why, I haven't seen anything


    Whoever set the filter up failed anyway

    Haha!

    Hmm, wonder what's up with that? Was one of their reps caught doing something shady or something ? I just noticed it within the past day or so.

    Nah, folks around here don't work like that. Aquatuning is as shady as they come, but that's not censored.

    More likely someone was trying to fix something else in the Admin CP and stuffed up.

    Weird is right. Is it possible to get some type of explanation about what is going on? I know their products work, so there must be something political or behind the scenes going on. Understand it may be none of our business, but now I've got a bunch of silly bananas messing up my worklogs...

    Yep gotta be political, not the products themselves. After all, thermaltake isn't censored

    try this, stick a "*" between the B+P and will solve the banana issue.. A bit of work but will take care of the issue for you.

    It may seem that way to you but I assure you there is a very good reason for what has been done.

    Speaking for myself and not for the site when someone craps on you for no reason other than hatred you remove him.
    Whe someone does the same and they are a company rep that reaps money from your site you take more drastic action and I think thats what your seeing here.

    I have no idea what happened and I totally respect your decision, but is there anyway you can remove blocking B*P (without the *) as those two characters are used in many words.

    (oil company)
    (abbreviation for blood pressure)
    A (abbreviation for Ad Block Plus)
    Weage
    Anything with Sub and starts with p (Suoena for instance)
    thumrint
    bomroof

    I realize some of these words won't be used commonly, but this is a bit of a pain. One entirely unrelated thread I was in had a few weosts censored.

    Laughable... god forbid you type the name of one of the best manufacturers in the business. Regardless of the situation, you are doing your users a disservice with these senseless filters.

    Hardly... I just fixed a typo... I know they will ban me eventhough I've never done anything wrong, so no need for my ninja skills.
