Can we please unban the word s-c-a-m from the auto filter? It's already comically overzealous but this censoring just makes important posts like this needlessly confusing for people IMO.

Cannot for the life of me understand why that word would be banned anyways, it's certainly not inherently offensive or crude.
It's offensive to the ****mers. They gotta make a living somehow.

Management are still exploring this. It appears for now that this is something imposed on us by the underlying forum architecture software. It is ridiculously overbroad, and very frustrating. Rest assured it will be severely curtailed as soon as our people figure out a way of dealing with it.

Ah, thank you for clarifying! Good to know and makes sense I suppose that it's more of a forum software issue than some strange decision being made. Not the end of the world, of course, just comically prude at times!
