    I got banned for saying don't pat the big pussy dad

    it was referring to a man who got his finger bitten off by a lion so please explain what cretin would ban this and why is there so many banned words that don't allow for what the term used for

    it is far better to ban all words in that case why select a few that an administrator is prejudice about

    stupid people

    you want people to pay but your site has huge holes in it

    First, you surely didn't get banned for a single entrapment by the auto-mod's problem language filter. You got a warning, I would guess. Don't be so sensitive. The language filter is there to try to keep this a family friendly site ... now that you know about it, and know at least one word that'll get snagged by it: simply be cool and prudent.

    Better a few warnings be given then the whole site degrade into a cesspool. (And yes, some words can be used differently in different contexts ... be aware of it and avoid the pitfalls ---- you'll do fine.)

    "Thanks for replies fact was i wasnt able to connect for 3 or 5 hrs after the warning cant remember exactly the situation now too long ago"

    I believe this is incorrect

    on reflection I think the ban was for comments only not playing from memory

     


    Dont get me wrong I like your site i think its great

    And I do acknowledge It is a difficult problem  i dont have a workable alternative to what you are trying to do that would improve that

    The  comment by Schachgeek on translation I feel is an irrelevant point since if we translate all words from English to all other languages no one will be able to make a sensible comment for fear of insulting the west bohemians in down town somewhere

    Different languages are also programmed in. But that gets complicated I'm sure. Everyone knows Cola is a drink in English. However, in Spanish it means something else. Rhymes with mass.


    You can say ass, so I imagine you can say it in any other language.

    That's what I was thinking, so in Spanish it must be some other word that rhymes with mass.

    I've got it!  It's a fish.  In Spanish, cola must mean bass. Cool

    Maybe the word that rhymes with mass is also Spanish.

    I had some Spanish rice with dinner tonight - sauteed crab cakes on a bed of spinach and carmelized onions, topped with a special dressing and a garnish of scallions, basil leaves, and chopped rosemary, accompanied by steamed asparagus, cowboy-style pinto beans, and of course the rice.

    Very tasty - the spinach was just slightly wilting at service.

    Do you guys really think it's that hard to avoid double entendres? Just use different wording to avoid this.

    I am an expert. He claimed that I was beginner. I mashed the two words together tp show the silliness of calling an expert a beginner, despite the grammatical error, which was a further illustration of silliness to drive the point home. Don't tell someone who score 36 readings acts when his grammar/syntax/usage/punctuation is off as he surely knows this, intends it, and expects it to confuse foolish simpletons such as yourself....


    He was addressing the OP's line of thought, genius, not you. Comprehension fail.

    And what the hell is an expert doing living at 1600?

    Answer: He isn't!

    lol

    Double entendres refer to euphemisms for sexual acts (i.e., the thread topic), not for mashing nouns together.

     

    I do, however, rather enjoy mashing certain nouns together....

    I had a friend go to Spain on vacation and he asked a waitress at one of the pubs for some cola. Didn't end well...

    I made coq au vin last weekend. Mushrooms, onions, garlic and thyme sauteed in bacon fat, reduced with wine and chicken stock and allowed to simmer for an hour. This sauce is then poured over browned chicken breasts seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic powder and baked for an hour and a half. I also made a salad with field greens and sauteed anjou pears dressed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I served wedges of blue cheese with it.

    This is not Spanish, and I don't know how say ass in French, but it was really delicious. Also, I think I would enjoy mashing nouns with Lisa V.

     My peak uscf rating is 2038, current is 1879, a sudden decline from an otherwise uphill momentum you lousy dog... And I will be a GM one day. It is all I want to be...


    Sure it is lol.

    What's your name and we'll look you up. Cheap boasts mean nothing.

    GM someday...sleep and dream hard little one.
