Or as it is listed in the Admin section "Word Censorship".

So it seems it has outlived it's humor value for some members. If that's the case, so we lose it, modify it, or just ignore it?

Here are the words that are currently listed and their alternatives (X added at the end to bypass the current substitutions) :

Al GoreX_______________________The Reverend Doctor Goracle, Jr.
ChelseaX_______________________Bradley
FeinsteinX_____________________ Feinswine
HillaryX ________________________Hitlery
bullet X_________________________freedom seed
bulletsX_________________________freedom seeds
cialisx__________________________I am a spammer ban me now!
gunpowderx_____________________angry sand
night visionx____________________wizard eyes
personal loanx____________________I am a spamming spammer that spams! Ban me now!
primerx__________________________bang button
primersx ________________________bang buttons

Maybe keep the anti-spam ones and dump the rest? We’re adults here, we can handle bad words like Biden, Clinton, or Harris :twisted:

That’s weird. After posting the reply above, I got this error:

[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions_messenger.php on line 506: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable
[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 1836: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [ROOT]/includes/functions.php:3268)

Any ideas? I was posting from my iPad using Safari as usual.

We all get that sometimes but the post generally goes through.

Moderately amusing, but it doesn't seem to be too important.

Testing for my own amusement:
Al Gore

Honestly it was amusing for a while but I think we should nuke the whole list.

It's (was) amusing but at some point with all the FB type factchecking overlays it's showing up in other platforms it's kind of nice to be able to just use your own words and not have them automatically replaced or editted for you.

So far it's a Magic Brownies in the lead and a tie between Nuke it and Leave it Alone.

I'll leave the poll up until the end of next week and see what it says then before taking any (or no) action.
