About ***
 

I had an interesting experience a couple of days ago. I tried to use the word anecdo-tal (without the dash.)

The word came out anec***al.

Like most message boards, this one apparently has a filter to censor unacceptable words, usually the common "four letter words." :cus:

I have yet to figure out what unacceptable word includes the three letters d, o and t in succession.

In the meantime I probably won't be using anec***al much.

I have recently noticed that and could not figure out why signing on the ***ted line would be offensive.

So, being a ***ing grandmother is not nice? Or talking about an anti***e for snake bite? Or signing on the ***ted line?


WOW. I must be in my ***age. Don't tell Betty.

It would make Morse code fifty per cent easier I think.

Actually, more than that.
 

if you *** your i's and cross your t's you'll be fine

The system won't take a "***" in a word. Hmmmm..... that's interesting.

The same goes for a certain sequence of numbers, as the admin informed me.

The system just doen't like some things. OH WELL!!!

A small price to pay for this wondeful site. :smiley:

"***" may be filtered to prevent people from spelling out (in words) an email or internet address

You are SO smart! I bet that's it.

But which one would that be? Curiouser and curiouser.


Our new friend ***ti who just went through the process of building here gets by somehow. And glad she does!


OOOPS, She doesn't. sorry ***ti. D o t t i.

I think they have a policy about posting certain internet site links, so sometimes people will add a space between every other letter or spell it out, such as google d o t com

p.s. When I saw the title of the thread, "About ***", I have to admit I didn't think it was about d o t

So now we are going to have to give the url "Villages - Voice You-know-what com"

It's to prevent members from posting messages in "Morse" code.

OH for Pete's sake, is that it???????

Guess you just have to start calling your friend "Periodti" instead of D o t t i. That's pronounced Perri-ottie! Or... just simply call her... your friend, End Of Sentence!"

I know, I know... go ahead and say it... :1rotfl:

You ain't right, Joe but we all still love you.

I find it very interesting that this is true, BUT users are allowed to copy an article from that site and paste the entire article in a post on this site. :loco: I don't understand!

SHHHHHHHHHH.


I am a big fan of Meta Minton and I think she is doing an excellent job filling in the information gaps from the Daily Sun and providing a lot of fresh and interesting information and up to the minute news because it is an internet site.

Careful.......... next thing you know the Pun Police will be after you.

I know from a good source that Meta's making a success of her venture. You know her, Gracie. Why don't you ask her why she doesn't just take out an ad on TOTV. Does she realize how much TOTV members have put her newspaper out there?

And no, I don't work for the Admin. He didn't buy my house either, more's the pitty...:cryin2:

We made some adjustments to the sensitivity of the filter.

Gracie, you should not bring Pete into this...............:smiley:

That may be one advertiser that would be turned away.

How come? I must be missing something. I just assumed they wouldn't print the url due to the fact that they weren't advertisers.

Maybe it was the picture I posted of me in my yellow polka dot thong

oh.
