I can't believe AB has edited my question. How pathetic.

agreed Moonhead, I think the new profanity filter is a bit over zealous!

So, under what cir***stances will those ****les appear in S****horpe? I suspect someone's conscience will be pricking if they have the aptitude. Maybe Penistone would be a better place to look, unless your name is our Willy.

The link problem and the over zealous profanity filiter has been noted, among other issues and our techies are busy working on them. You will soon be able to post http links as before. Thank you for your patience while we try to iron out a few glitches! Best Regards AB Editor

Hello Moonhead, I have just posted a question in the 'Quizzes NEW' section which you may like to look at...

If it's accidentally deleting "see you em" in words like "dock-you-ment", then all you need to do is re-set it to delete only things like "space see you em space", so that it knows when it's a word rather than part of a word. Hope this helps :-)

Oh by the way, when I first saw "do***ent" it was ages before I realised what word it was meant to be :-(
