I personally do not know Mr Yama****a, but I do not thnk it apprpriate to censor a mans name.

Best for this to be placed in the Rules, Site Comments and Suggestions. Hopefully, a modification can be made to the word censor...

The new profanity filter is blocking out part of So's surname since 4 letters of his surname are in the same sequence as a 4 letter word.
Is that what you were asking?
His last name is:
Y-A-M-A_S*H'I,T-A
Did I get past the filter on that one?

Thanked: 1587It's not the word censor we are worried about, it's the word Yama****a.
Mark, it appears we have a new expletive censoring mechanism on the forum that searches for any of the well-known curse words and asterisks them out.
So's full name is So Y-a-m-a-s-h-i-t-a.
It's also rather annoying because I am still quite desperate to start a badminton thread in the off topic area, but it will lose all impact if "shuttle****" is censored.
And that's not even mentioning my intro to basic plumbing thread: opening and closing valves aka how to adjust your ****.

I'd like to be able to read Yama****a's name properly. I hope he gets exempted from the profanity filter. And I hope I spelled his name right... hard to know since I didn't know the correct spelling to begin with. (I hope I chose the correct 4-letter word)
Find me on SRP's official chat in ##srp on Freenode. Link is at top of SRP's homepage
