Forum filter

[Slowpoke]

It's being really strange recently. On a few occasions over the past few days I've found that it didn't filter really common swear words but then I would use the same word in another post and it would filter them correctly. I don't mean it's because it had a full stop/question mark etc, after it, it just happens randomly. I'll post, for the sake someone investigating, the words that I have (and have seen other people) having trouble with.

Edited by opensourcehost (Forum Administrator): Thread closed as the issue is now sorted and to prevent further avoidance of the filter in this thread.

Yeah thats what happened when I posted the s word assuming it would filter it and ended up getting an infraction that is aparrently fair. =/

[Slowpoke]

I don't recall saying it happened every time?

surely the filter isn't going to just unfilter words randomnly.. :s

Indeed, sounds odd too and Neversoft, campaign against it. If the filter won't do its job then it isn't really your fault.

well that's what it did. i typed earlier on and it didn't filter for some reason. Chris was infracted for typing although I tried it myself in a PM and it did filter.

It like, unfilters some in the context they're used. Like if you say the s word as a question and add a question mark to the end of it, it won't be filtered.

Oh yeah! That needs fixing. Somewhere down the line they've set it so only the word is filtered, not anything around it.

Not necessarily. After I saw you get infracted for typing it earlier I tried it in a PM to myself and it came up as "****?". It's dead weird.
