I was thinking about this, I do not run any forums that censor profanity but I am sure there are many that do. Here is the scenario I came up with: Let's say it's a Disney forum targeted at the younger audience. They would usually use censors to mask profanity. What if they use your mod and the poster types "shkt" since they meant to type "shot". The spell check dictionary will show "shit" in it's list of suggestions right? If so, will there be a way for those to censor it out? _________________ ~!~ Last edited by Stryker on Mon Aug 29, 2005 7:19 am; edited 1 time in total Back to top Pickled_Weasel666 Joined: 28 May 2004 Posts: 104 Location: Oklahoma Posted: Fri Jun 18, 2004 9:39 pm    Post subject: I would have to say that profanity is part of the online experience _________________ Back to top nuttzy99 Site Admin Joined: 23 May 2004 Posts: 1068 Posted: Sat Jun 19, 2004 1:23 am    Post subject: Blah, good catch. While it should recognize profanity and not flag them as misspellings, I don't think it should be suggesting them either. I'll see what I can do!
