    I would say the filter is set up for just ***, and not wildcarded to catch any instance of the 3 letters.

    I believe the filters need to be made by hand and the rules were loosened so we can say things like brass grass is flass

    Maybe the new forum software will work better with the filters? Maybe it can do something about when people post with [code] we don't have to scroll all over the place...

    Just means you need a higher res monitor. About 16000x12000 should do it...

    Well, I didn't mean to be an ******* about it. I just thought it was funny. I guess that someone should just add "*******" to the filters.

    I've seen posts that probably would have required it

    Whoops, I just pulled this completely off-topic. My bad.
