Hey, everybody--I am a frequent reader/seldom poster, but I have a question. What's with all the asterisks in place of what should be numbers???

I have noticed that also and have sent a PM to Tony regarding this. It looks to me that when someone spells out a number such as ***** or **** and did not use 3 or 4 it changes the message to ***** or ****.

I just entered this post and did a preview and I see that the spelled out works are being changed to ***** and ****. In the sentence above the first ***** or **** are the numbers 3 and 4 spelled out.

I am sure Tony and the gang will figure it out.

Our software removes certain bad words. (I really regret admitting that because I don't want people to test it.)

The bad-word thing starting thinking numbers are bad.

Still looking into it.

By the way, the bad words it filters are ****, ****, ****, **** and ****.

Ha, gotcha. You thought I typed bad words. I didn't. I just typed asterisks.

Now, please don't test the bad-word thing.

My mother told me that the words "shut-up" were bad. I even got my mouth washed out with soap for telling my brother to ****-** :doh: I think I was about *** (6) years old and I still remember it.

Wonder how the bad word thing will work with this poem.


In her plane, Mary'd take flight,
above the clouds she'd frisk.
Such a daring gal,
her *.

Such a daring gal,
her *.How about this one:

There was a girl with a little curl,
In the middle of her forehead.
When she was good, she was very good.
But when she was bad... she was *********!

There once was a fella from Boston
Who drove around town in his Austin
It had room for his ***
and a tankful of gas
but his ***** hung out and he lost 'em.

The same thing happens on the chat room.. If a word even hints of a suggestive meaning, it will *** or xxx it out.
(sorry to bring this thread back to topic...) :ho:

We can count on Gracie to bring a smile to our faces.

Gracie, you are a hoot. I think it's great to leave something to the imagination.

How about, "There once was a gal from Nantucket". Oh, let's not go there!!:1rotfl:
