Just a suggestion, but I was wondering if the admin could do something to make the filter a little less aggressive, I'm not saying quit using it completely or anything, just a little less aggression would be nice. It's annoying to be trying to talk about one thing or another & not be able to say cucumber or modicum because there is a word in it that can be used to describe a bodily fluid. Also do non offensive words like suicide, abortion, s****** (A kid's toy, seriously), suspicions, & the like need to be on the list of prohibited words? I can understand having some words filtered, but I think that's just going a little overboard. I know the filter has been in place since whatsisname sold JAC the first time, & I remember how rediculous the filter was then, you quite literally couldn't have a conversation without having some word bleeped out for one reason or another, I do appreciate the fact that it isn't that bad anymore, but I just thought there may be a few improvements that could be made to the filter. Also, in some parts of the forum you can't type in caps lock, I dunno if there's a reason for that or not, but sometimes caps lock is useful =/

Edit: Also, I can say **** but not piss, what's up with that?

Lol.. wow, you couldnt even say fart.

I cleared some of the ones that seemed too vague, or kinda silly to ban... hopefully that clears up a lot of the words that arent bad but were being censored anyway :P

Wow, fart? That's.... Stupid lol.

I appreciate it, it was starting to get annoying when normal words were filtered multiple times in one day lol.

Beats me lol, at first I believe the words 'come' & 'came' were banned. Even when used like "She came to the store" or "Come over to my house later" & stuff like that. I hate that bloody filter so bad >.> Especially just after she installed it, it was impossible to converse because every other word was bleeped out for one reason or another.

Wow. That would have been annoying.

I didn't really come here then. I was still registered and stuff though.

It was infuriating. It's the reason I quit posting for so long, I just used Quizilla.

Be glad you didn't lol.
