Hey mods.

Not a moan, genuine flagging. Let 24 hours I’ve seen posts with the word cigarette and shitpost.

Former was a reference to cigarettes. Latter was perhaps something the poster expected to auto-censor.

Ah the gakpost is likely mine. Apologies for that, I (wrongly) assumed the filter would pick it up. I've edited my post.

Thanks for the catch, MDG.

No worries. Didn’t report either post for just that reason.

I know I’ve had stuff past the filter when I didn’t expect it to. Figured the moderati would find it handy to know when that happens.

Yeah, gakpost isn't in the filter IIRC, I know I made that mistake myself in the past, oops. The bri'ish slang word for cigarette should be filtered, but isn't any more for some reason, I've stumbled across that one myself a few days ago and simply manually edited it out.

For now, yeah if bad words could be reported, we can just edit them out for the time being, not a massive deal and nine times out of ten, it is indeed a subconscious thing that we think will be filtered out.

Will do

pidgeon

seams to be working fine now.

Removed - please don't.

I suppose we could just copy here the transcript of George Carlin's Incomplete List of Impolite Words to test out the filter?

Not a bad call!
