Like th3 title says I have been seeing this alot and I feel pretty dumb on the subject. Thanks guys
The forum filters substitute "e36 m3" for sh-rhymes-with-it and "berkeley" for f*ck.
Back when Per set up the filters, he used the names of cars that Tim owned at the time for some of the "dirty" words.

Here ya go:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grassroots_Motorsports said: There are several anagrams used for common phrases in the website. YMMV means Your Mileage May Vary, or "your experience may be different than mine", SWMBO means She Who Must Be Obeyed, or "your significant other", IIRC means If I Remember Correctly. Several words are automatically filtered to keep the forum family-friendly, but they are filtered and replaced with unorthodox alternatives as follows: E36 M3: for the "S" word. Berkeley: for the "F" word. Bob Costas: for the "P" word in the context of the female anatomy. Shiny Happy Person: for the "A" word. Forum members have also developed the following slang terms: Canoe: used to label spam posts inserted by bots or other non-regular post methods. Flounder: a person or post that pushes a political ideology, but doesnt necessarily add to the thread or topic - a type of political rhetoric spam. Based loosely on the National Lampoon's Animal House character "Yeah but do all the pixels work?": Something to ask anyone who asks a "should I buy this car" or "what car" type question. Should thoroughly derail the thread. In reference to BMW's of the '90s and early '00s that had readout panels famous for losing pixels as they age.

Can we change the word filter to make it when someone types in "Miata" it corrects it to "ghey" and if they type "gay" it changes to "Miata" ?

Edit: Whoa what triggers "Gay Slur?" Not "bundle of sticks"...

Yes, it autocorrects. It will also inadvertently change some nonoffensive words, like p u s s y c a t becomes Bob Costascat

I came into this thread with a "Who's got their panties bunched up now?" attitude, and was amused to find out that it was not an irritated user.
(Oh, and welcome aboard)

Slow down there, some things are best learned slowly as to not overload the system.
