Smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf,

OK.....
I been trying to tolerate it, honest I have.
Ever since the change to PunBB I have been looking at the offensively stupid mess the current choice of filter replacements makes of posts.
Every few days I go looking in my user prefs hoping upon hope I will find a new choice to turn off filtering but each of these hopeful efforts has ended in a bitter soul crushing disappointment.
Why in the name of Satan and all his festering minions has the childish, dumba$$ed word "smurf" chosen as the universal profanity replacement?
Is there any chance of letting the grownups here turn off their filtering?
Let those who are of weak constitution keep theirs but let the robust and daring do without.
Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree, but they say the option to turn that off is coming.

IMO, the filters that turned a word into something like He Man Master of the Universe was more creative than smurf, at least those filters were entertaining to read shrug

I move everyone start using that on all their posts till the filters can be turned on.

Seriously....I think I will.

Re: Smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf, smurf,

I have trouble even with creative filters telling what is suppose to be replaced, and the smurf thing is ever worse.

But, it really is not that big a deal to me.

What does kinda bother me though is that the Quick Post doesn't always work on the first try. Sometimes I close the window before I realize the post didn't go through, and the post is lost forever (one of them contained the secret to world peace too sad ). MOst of the time though, I can hit back, and resend it.

Did you ever think that maybe you are swearing a bit too much if you see smurf all the time?

Try hitting the back button when that happens. Frequently, i hit the Go next to the jumpbox, instead of the Submit button for the quick post. Hitting the back button takes me back to my post.

There is a way to "code" it so that it isn't filtered.  But oatmeal said that if anyone does it again they will be banned.

So you're saying he created a topic to complain about all the smurfing in the topic he created? Sorry, that would open up an eddy in the time-space continuum, and your brain would fall through.

I was told by GUI that the end to the FCC reign of these forums would occur "sometime in the next two weeks."  He said this on the 20th of February.  So, unless the "two weeks" of which he spoke is like that Tom Hanks movie "The Money Pit," I would think we would be golden on or about Sunday.
