Profane Language Warning Error?

Question

I don't know if this is some sort of fluke, but I'm here work hardly on the Daily Activities reference article, and all of the sudden, when I update it... I get the following message. Is this an error? See the screenshot below...

To view the thread and inform me of any "bad words" click the following link Daily Activities & Games '11.

Wait...you use internet explorer??? :shock: haha - Destroyed99, Jun 24, 2011

It's a work computer, I have to use what they ask me to... I used to have it pimped out and it made my computer faster and much more useful, however, it slowed down the network for everyone else.. so I'm stuck using caveman tech. =( - DJ_Huero, Jun 24, 2011

Lol, but thanks for the feedback amiga - DJ_Huero, Jun 24, 2011

Answer 1

Just a test to see if it allows profane language in links to a phote.

Edit: Ok... it doesn't, but it won't edit your photo... let's try doing it with tiny url.

Edit: Ok, point proven. If it says swear words in the link address it won't allow it, but if you disguise the words in the hyperlink, you can put any picture you like on... though I wouldn't ever do that of course.

obviously not! haha - Destroyed99, Jun 24, 2011

Which is why they don't allow photos in flashcards. - 0074b507, Jun 24, 2011

wow, I never realized that, good idea :) - Destroyed99, Jun 24, 2011

rofl... that's a funny test. =) - DJ_Huero, Jun 24, 2011

So you're saying the "profane language" must be in a link somewhere? - DJ_Huero, Jun 24, 2011

Answer 2

You may have a typo somewhere in your **** ignment. (ass-ignment). Put a blank space where the hypen is and you get a flag.

I wonder how it recognizes profane words? Change your sign to "This site is under erection" and see if it throws a flag?

Try doing a seach the page (Ctrl+F) for some of the more common words (yes, you know them all) and see if one pops up.

Answer 4

Wow, that's interesting. I have seen profane language and had to flag or delete it. I did not know they had this warning. In the phrase book, there have been some phrases in Spanish that were profane that were mistranslated into English as benign phrases by some of our users who put them there. This is an interested tool, I would hope that it would give you a clue about your profane language, though.

right? - DJ_Huero, Jun 24, 2011

Answer 5

I didn't see anything "profane"! How strange!!!!!!!

I know! Jaja, it bothers me, because I know the system has sort of self-protect function and it can clear out. =( - DJ_Huero, Jun 24, 2011
