funkasarusrex Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I tried to make a slight change in my userlookup today and was told I couldn't update it because it contained profanity. I restored it to what was already approved and got the same warning. I've dug through my code just to be sure and I can't find any profanity in it (and I got very creative in my search). The best I could guess is the font class I specified in my AC counter. Is anybody else having problems with crazy profanity filters anywhere else on the site? Quote
lovedwallflower Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Could they be re-evaluating due to the JumpStart move? Seems unlikely, but it's an option. You could send them a ticket and ask about it, I suppose... Just fyi (and yes, I am a huge nerd :* ) this is the type of filtering they use on neopets. I couldn't understand the jargon myself, but the graphics are pretty interesting if you want to have a look :) >> http://www.google.com/patents/US7549119 Quote
funkasarusrex Posted April 28, 2014 Author Posted April 28, 2014 Oooh that is fascinating! The neocash patent (also found on google) is pretty interesting too. Lawdy me, I'm such a nerd. *foodles off to happily procrastinate reading patents* Quote
Xepha Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Okay people, first stop attributing everything to Jumpstart. Whenever I run into that kind of problem, I add the code line by line until I find the faulty code. It can be anything, even a hex code. Let us know what was the problem so others can be aware ^^ Quote
fullonparanoid Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 I blame Jumpstart for Xepha being a Francophile. (I kid! I kid!) :P This post has been edited by a member of staff (Ruto) because of a violation of the forum rules. Stay on-topic, please.

funkasarusrex Posted April 28, 2014 Author Posted April 28, 2014 As far as I can tell, it was my abbreviations for either slushie slinger (SLSL) or make some noise (MSN) ...ohhhhhhh HANG ON. I bet the profanity filter is reading MSN as an attempt to foster off-site contact. Still not sure why that would return as a profanity warning and not as a warning about not having off-site contact though. agrinwithoutacat 1 Quote
Xepha Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Definitely MSN is a trigger. Even if it doesn't exist anymore. Glad you found what the problem was. :) Quote
lovedwallflower Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 oh my goodness.. really?? well, anyway glad you found your problem and thanks for the line by line tip xepha :) Quote
