The forum Word censoring option in Account Settings dosent work.

About 2 days after the forums were updated to phpBB3 the disable button worked fine, but now it dosent.

I have "Enable Forum Word Censoring" set to "No" and i still see crap like :o and :~ in everyones posts because its still on.

Please fix this broken option.

simple actually, we do not allow members to disable word censoring. I always assumed that the option for that would not show in the UCP when it wass disabled. I assumed wrong.

How come? like, im 22.... and GTA san andreas has lots of swearing in it anyway..... so it dosent make much sence to completly disable the option to turn censoring off.

Well if you're going to have it, it could at least be a better replacement other than ":O", something like [Censored] would be better and wouldn't interfere as much...

I actually like it, when it replaces a swear word it looks to me like that smiley is trying to shout something, I'm not sure what but I guess it's something bad because he seems a little angry..

I don't sound like a complete wacko do I? :drinking:
