So ask your questions, and I'll answer them to the best of my ability. If it's not something from the last 24 hours, try to provide a link or at least a thread title.

That seems like a LOT of effort to go through just to find out the profanity filter :S

If you are banned, is that from forums only or the whole site.

You may as well have just said "*** you".
I don't see why it would be so difficult to copy/paste from your filter.

On the topic of the profanity filter, I don't have a list in front of me. I'd have to do the same thing if I was unsure about a word.

Can you partially edit a word in a picture so people can still get the gist of it? Or do you have to completely blank it out?

If you're unable to answer a question, let someone who does have the answer answer it.

What are the lengths of censoring? Can I say clusterduck? POOPSTORM!?
I mean, those are hammy as hell, they're great.

I don't see why it would be so difficult to copy/paste from your filter. It's not his choice to post it and it isn't his filter, but I understand what you mean. See the post above yours

I sent you this PM months ago Krizz did you ever get to read it? And how do you feel about it's message now? I feel the same as I did then and if one looks at the way Scragg and Jaerik handle themselves in their posts it's clear they do not condescend
Yeah I know I'm going to be flamed for posting this and how sentimental it is but I still mean it. I do enjoy this site and I want it to thrive guys
I did read it. It wasn't intended to be condescending, and I usually use that when it's a more regular group of posters. Just an attempt at keeping things a bit more lighthearted, and not seem like I'm slamming down on the thread.

First letter is usually all it takes to figure it out from context. If you don't want to edit the whole thing, I'd prefer just the first letter be left.

Also, if you don't know what words are on the list, when a pending moderation arrives, do you post the word in question, log out, and check if its filtered or not, then moderate if it violates based on that method?

Do they pay you to moderate, or is it a hobby? I would get tired of babysitting the forum so much.

This isn't a moderation question but I figure asking here is a good of place as any.
How is the average price and sale rate for items calculated?
How far back does the avearage go and is it programmed to ignore self sales or extreme values?
