I've noticied some user names are not appropiate, lke the most recent one that inspired this post:

POOPMAN (in all caps)

yes, poopman. Wow. Appropiate all right.

I've also seen: PimpDaddy, gotmilk, and others like it.

Should CG do anything about it? I know it's just a user name but when POOPMAN posts a question, it's like he just said 5 profanites, just because of the user name.

POOPMAN. There is nothing wrong with the word poop (About to test the filters), bu ther is a problem with words like f**k, donkey, female dog, w***e, s**t, d**k, p***y, etc.

Hey Z, I found what you need to fix right now.

If anyone insistes on posign these words that were missed by the filter, prepare to have your post(s) deleted.

Good idea, but it won't always work. There will always be those creeps wanting to ruin things you guys have tried so hard to create.

donkey, female dog, w***e, s**t, d**k

okay, here goes your post D. well, i just edited it actually. hehe, now everyone can play a word game with the filtered words. see if you can guess what asterisks stand for :).

please report any inappropriate usernames. usernames do not pdonkey thru our filter. also, inappropriate words are the words caught by the filter. other words are appropriate until we put them into the filter. so there you go, this is how you can tell if usernames are okay. thanks for the input guys, its for everyone's good.

oh, and if you go here:.censoring problem, last couple of postsYou'll find that it censored the word c-l-a-s-s, and made it cldonkey. Wow. I can't even say c-l-a-s-s. I know it's not anybody's fault, the censored word list is just confused

maby the filter should only recognize the word if their is a space before AND after the word, so the cldonkey won't occure

of course there are countless ways to byass the filter but using a filter and controlling the content shows that we care. whatever new offensive words we discover, we'll add to the filter. bad words with substituted characters like in spiral's post, aren't really as bad as their normal versions. oh yes, thanks for reporting this problem calcfreak. i'll fix that. please report any other problems or incorrect filtering so that we can improve it. thanks for your support guys.

(checking if your fix worked, your good)

Your welcome, cause I don't want any profanities on CG.

Anyways, look at your post Z! I think you meant to spell b-y-p-a-s-s, but, we get what you mean!

cldonkey was pretty funny though. I kept reading playing in Cldonkey, and i didn't get what it was, thought it might be a game name or something, till I hit this thread. Class works nwo at least.

lol, i've just noticed this. i just love it. byass!!! whatever that was supposed to mean. hehe well, good thing that filters work now. please email me any words you find offensive or are missed by the filter so that we can improve forum quality. btw, the new forum update has lots of changes regarding filtering procedures. i'm sure everyone will like these changes. you can actually see them on the beta test forum we setup.

Oh, and I created the username calcfreakCG, cause mine wasn't working for a while, and so no one could impersonate me! JK!
