Filter words
As many of us know now, the current filter for inappropriate words isn't the best around. what I would like to do is if someone could please put a list of words that show what words that would otherwise be fine that set the filter off. I'll keep editing this post and adding more to it. Not to impose, but it would be great if mods could edit the post too.
Code:
chemotherapeutic chemotherapeutics crape crapes drape draped draper draperies drapers drapery drapes grape graped grapefruit grapefruits grapes grapeshot grapevine grapevines parapet parapets scrape scraped scraper scrapers scrapes serape serapes skyscraper skyscrapers therapeutic therapeutically therapeutics trapeze trapezed trapezes trapezing trapezium trapeziums trapezoid trapezoidal trapezoids

They only really set the filter off on the main site, and it might encourage more cheating of the filter (with there being an obvious list of censored words)... I'm not sure about it.
Well, the filter would detect the cheating words, right?

No, because they really aren't all that hard to get around.

Ah well... you can close it if you want then.

Re: Filter words
Its almost impossible to get filters to stop people who want to say something bad from eventually saying it.
No matter how good the filter is, they can just get around by using different symbols, images, numbers etc.
I think the filter should mainly just be there to remind people that they shouldn't say that certain word, if they want to avoid it they are going to easily find some way anyway.
