Hello all,

I've been getting some reports of people swearing lately, and it seems there are a few words that aren't included in our filters. I took the liberty of adding these words into the filters as well.

In an effort to further let people know when users swear, rather than the standard *** that appears in place of bad words the system will now show: - PLEASE REPORT ME FOR SWEARING!!! - when a filtered word is posted.

Look for the big red text. :)

It has been brought to my attention that several free website, forum, and chat providers will activate the red text for swearing. I have removed some of the more popular service providers from the filter list. I am trusting that you all can still be good about not advertising in your posts. If this becomes a problem then I will re-add the filtered sites.

Please note that whole website domains, such as links to sites that offer Club Penguin hacks and "cheats" will still activate the filter and you will be permanently banned from the forums for posting those links.
