I tried to comment my opinion, but it got auto-censored, but I don't think it was inappropriate. I'll report my post with my attempted comment, but check your PM's onADK's forums while I get this sorted out.

I took at the comment that got blocked, what triggered the filter was the term "gay".

You're probably wondering why "gay" is on the censor filter; it's there because it's often used as a terrible insult. Hopefully, through blocking it, it helps to break the negative connotation associated with using the word in a negative manner. 

However, terms like "homosexual", "bisexual" and "lesbian" are not triggered; you could opt to substitute the word "gay" with "homosexual" in the meantime.

If you have any more thoughts about the issue or have any ideas on alternatives, feel free to send a message to the Scratch Team about it.
