Default Apologies for causing offence, but...

I recently posted on a thread in "Warfare..." during which I used the term "..... footing" In Britain the word is a slang term for cat so when I say (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) footing I mean "dancing around" or skirting. I realise now that in America the word means something completely different (as fanny does in this country) Sorry

Default no biggie

It's no biggie, petshrew. The automatic word censor did it. It wouldn't let me say bulldog once. The funniest thing is it changes c0cky to stinky.

The filter also censors the last name of foreign policy thinker Francis F-u-k-u-y-a-m-a.

Yeah, the problem with the word censor is it can't differentiate between innocent context and other. But, we all know what word you intended and the context, so don't worry about it.
