Auto edit of text to provent profanity
Posted by Rob Gronovius on Wednesday, January 14, 2004 6:48 AM
I noticed in the Helicopter forum thread that several words that start with the 3 letters that are synonymous with a word meaning mule, automatically get re-written as "****ault" for the word "as-sault" (delete hyphen) and "****igning" for the word "as-signing".

Now I understand the need to curb foul language and have pointed out recent vulger posts in the armor forum to moderators, but the methods being used are censoring perfectly legitimate words like ******ault, ******ign, ******ess and treating them like cuss words.

I think that's a little much.
