Hi everyone,

This issue goes back a couple of years, but I wanted to bring it up again because I notice it's happening more and more lately in some posts.

Some members have had their access to this bulletin board blocked by their employers because messages contain the word "p*rn", as in photos of barbecue referred to as "food p*rn".

Although it's common on other sites, I'm not comfortable with the use of "p*rn" on my bulletin board, and I don't want any members to have their access blocked. So I have configured the bulletin board to filter out this word and a few other naughty words. Prohibited words are replaced with a string of ****.

Please honor my wishes in this matter and do not try to get around the filter by misspelling banned words. Such posts are subject to editing when I come across them, and if such posting continues I reserve the right to suspend membership.

Thanks for your cooperation,
Chris

While you're at it, you should add 'CharBroil' to your list of naughty words. Wink

Brinkman should also be on the banned list. I drove to Home Depot looking for a rib rack and all they had was Brinkman brand. It looked like a childs arts and craft project gone bad.
