Apparantly Admin have it on a 'to do' list.......personally I'm not holding my breath. It's been kind of irritatingly amusing seeing the various ways folks get around it.

cheers,

I noticed this happening on a recent dogs and bushcraft thread when someone referred to the breed of their dog being a 5h1tzu (if you can read that one)... there are profanity filters on many forums like this and sometimes inadvertent words are slipped into the configuration text file listing words that are verboten. Ah well.

It sure is tough saying 5orry though.

Nahhh, the swear filter was the first thing checked. If I say **** then the naughty word gets replaced with a row of asterix'. If you write "s0rry" nothing appears at all. The problem is somewhere deeper than the filters.

:lmao:

Can't take credit for it - The Joker did it in a post recently I think - basically take a special character from Word that looks just like an o.

Computers not being visually tricked like us don't trigger the filter. :)
