Congratulations on finding a solution to the problem of people talking about assassins on MMO forums, I guess?

Ya the filter is looking at words within words instead of looking at whole words.

I emailed the developer again and provided examples.

I've got the same issue over in the Omnibus Direct Distribution Deals thread we have going in =22. I posted a message about Assassin's Creed Humble Bundle deal and it got nuked. I can only assume because this ridiculous filter doesn't like the word "assassin".

Likewise for this post which is fairly short but is about circumcision, with said word repeated multiple times.. Which contains c-u-m in the word and I guess is what tripped it off.

That's not really new, more of a reversion. When the google adsense filter first got put in it would asterisk pretty much any word that would offend someone from the 1400s, whether it was by itself or part of another word. It got worked on a little bit after a while and we got a few words back, but I guess the Puritans complained.

As far as I am aware, there hasn't been any complaints like that, at least reported to us admins and I'm pretty much on the site all day so if there had been reports of not liking bad words then it wasn't reported through us. The only complaints we get are double posting or so and so is back and spamming his hate (you know the guy that keeps creating accounts).

The problem we are having with the filter now doesn't have anything to do with how the filter was set up in the past. It was something recently put in because we found a huge amount of spam on some item pages. Anyone who tried to view the items would cause the site to go unresponsive because the server was trying to process all of it. An engineer would have to log in and kill the process for that sql query as it would just stay in a loop.

I've been forwarding posts to the developer that are being marked as abusive to provide examples.

I'm glad I came here and saw this topic. I posted some Winter Veil stories that have been clinging to the General Discussion page for about 14 months and those are the only ones that say "Message has high abuse count and will not be displayed". Thanks for the info everyone.

Looks like the developer has fixed this issue. I have checked all the posts reported in this thread and it seems all of them are fine now. Post here if you're seeing anymore of these abusive error messages on legit posts.
