Come on guys... nothing nefarious here, not even remotely so. No hacking, no cloak and dagger behind the scenes manipulation.

There is a filter that changes any word found to match a word in an associated filter file to the equivalent of a censor's beep like on TV. This is how the owner of this site maintains some semblance of "family friendliness."

It is a good thing without which a few bad actors could reduce this pleasant experience to a twisted ugly anarchist's playground. (see also Does anyone still believe...)

I personally thank Muhammad for upholding high standards. I also chuckle a bit at the irony of the particular word that inadvertently got dropped in the "bad words" file. Imagine a Bible with God replaced by ***

It has been years since I toyed with stuff behind the curtain. If I recall correctly (problematic at best) printing chr(7) to the screen is still the carriage bell and by substituting chr(7) in place of the "*" in "bad words" you'd get beeps like on tv.
