this site is totally stupid
« on: March 02, 2006, 07:07:46 AM »
When I cannot type a man's name without getting censored there is a fundamental problem with this site.
F,  U,  K, U,  Y,  A, M, A is a mans' name.  What is the problem?

It's probably censoring the F, U, K because it assumes the only time that will ever be typed is for a substitute profanity...

No, that's not it because I can type in my last name with no problem.

I had a post blocked once because I attempted to refer to this toy by its first name:  http://www.mcphee.com/items/11006.html

It also happens to be the first name of an eminent bowler, recently deceased.
