Potty mouth...Me?

This is funny! ;D

My last post I mentioned surf guitarist D.I.C.K Dale..

I have to spell his first name that way because the proper way turns into a percentage symbol.

I guess theres a filter on GN2?

Yes there is a potty mouth substitution filter to save us from ourselves.

It is a little ghosty though. See:

guitarnuts2.proboards45.com/index.cgi?board=coffee&action=display&thread=1181905606

Where "butt" was converted to "butt" and causing all sorts of silliness, then it stopped. Gremlins.

I think it is moody because there is a definition filter on the bot that limits substitutions to whole words. If someone accidentally or impishly selected no to the whole words definition, then it starts getting parts of words. Which is why above the evil donkey word appears, because it is encased in quotation marks.

Fortunately for the innocent community of Nutz, there are no imps among the administrators..... or are there?

deep,

Yes, the filter does include Mr. Dale's first name as a whole word, and that upsets that apple cart no end, trust me.

I am now removing it from the list. Rune and Chris, if you see the word misused, please edit that post accordingly. If the abuse is extreme, then we'll talk about Plan B. But with only one or two scallawags making themselves known in recent times, I think we'll be safe.

Let the King of the Surf Guitar reign supreme! ;D

OK, lets test it. I should be able to say the name of our largest electronics chain in Australia;

Dick Smith Electronics

Yes!

^ hahaha! I thought about that when this thread was unwinding. I remember commenting how "crapinine" it was before when you had to type D1ck Smith. I knew eventually you would post exactly what you just did!
