O W A S S O

I frequently visit the forum for the Indian Nations Football Conference, (Well, actually I am addicted! I may have to start a INFC Annonymous support group) The forum has an automatic filter for bad words or phrases. It changes the words to silly words and phrases such as "I'm a dork".... It is even hard to type in Owasso, because of the 3rd, 4th and 5th letter.... sometimes when you type Owasso, it comes out Owhippoo ..... it replaces the "offending" letters with hippo. So the word passer becomes phippoer.
The filter is a good thing, I suppose, because kids read the forum as well and I am glad that it is family friendly, but I think that they need to "turn down" the filter a bit.... right now, people are haveing to type O W A S S O most of the time so that it stays what it is suppose to be! Hope they fix it soon!
