When I composed a new post the site, when I hit the submit button, changed my word "architect" to "man with pencil who draw".

I don't care, but do wonder why.
 
Re: automatic substitution??

Do you think if I entered "man with pencil who draw" it would show up as "architect"?

It's a MYSTERY!?!?!

NAHHHHHHH! Just jar546 playing. I thought he removed that one after the first day, oh well.

Intentional misspellling or ch@rac+er substitution will bypass the filter.

I always wondered why "phonics" wasn't spelled fonetiklee . . . . :?
 
Re: automatic substitution??

Pencils are so 20th century! It should be "man with mouse who draw" (or "man or woman with mouse who draw" if you want to be politically correct). I suppose in few more years it will be "man with mouse who create BIM model"

BTW, should a contractor be called "man with nail gun who build"?
 
Re: automatic substitution??

Is there anyway this can be fixed? I don't mean to be stuffy, but it would be nice to remain professional in my posts and also make sure they make sense when giving advice...
 
Re: automatic substitution??

In appreciation for your past and future posts which greatly contribute to this forum, I have removed the censoring of the word architect.

Absolutely hilarious. You mean all 5 of them, one of which was deleted, and one asking you to change your website?

What's even funnier, is everyone is actually writing "man with pencil..." now anyway, so it's just like it was before...

Nice way to make an entrance; join a website and immediately start asking them to change it to suit you. Not to be stuffy or anything...
