Re: Censored.
It's just one of those automatic things Garinda. Moderators unfortunately can't be everywhere and sometimes miss things so an auto censor is set up to catch the most obvious words and blank them out. Unfortunately computers being what they are it also blanks out part words when they spell out the censored word.
We had a hilarious moment on another message board I visit where someone mentioned that well-known actor "Family Jewels van Hoover Dam" - I'll leave you to guess who that was. We also had a "roostertail party" and that famous bear "Winnie the Whoopsie"
It eventually led to members trying out all the rude or possibly unacceptable words they could think of to see what would come up. Unfortunately not all featured in the auto censor and there were some very embarrassed people hurredly editing their posts!
I do think there is a valid place for censorship on a family message board. Yes I know kids themselves hear worse in the playground sometimes but that is such a shame. As the blogs are a feature of the board they are bound to come under the same censoring umbrella. Don't let it spoil your fun. You have such a lot of interesting things to say.
