One of our members was having a problem with a post he wrote... when he would go to post the message, one of the words he wrote kept coming out as a different word - "thingy" - to be precise. He thought he was going nuts or that something had infected his computer.
I don't think I have ever mentioned that there is a list of about twenty or so words (I did not pick them or their replacements, they were built in when I started the board) that when used in a message, automatically get replaced with an alternative or a few asterisks in the middle.
Trust me, I don't expect that any of us upstanding deacons would EVER think to use such words.
But if it ever happens to you, that's what is happening. Please don't try to figure out the words.
BTW, I deleted the word our member was trying to use from the censored word list as I expect it might crop up occasionally in a positive context.
