What I thought was interesting was trees' use of the word 'c*nt'; obviously a need to shock or make an impact was the object there, because typing it without the asterisk would've produced the rather more innocuous 'flapperjack'.

flapperjack flapperjack

Wanna bet?

It won't recognise that because you struck it through, same as putting any kind of punctuation immediately before or after it; it's the same rule that allows the word Scunthorpe.

the strike through was the edit though DK, it beat the swear filter, that's for sure!

looks like Sub has deactivated the swear filter...

[donsking]

Then it's busted again, bit of a flapperjack this swear filter!

Edit: and Schumi just reactivated it again!

Nothing to do with me.

[donsking]

Actually, I wouldn't bother with it anyway, the word's not even banned by the BBC.

I use this forum as well as the BSF not instead of, although I increasingly find on the BSF that I'll type out a post and then delete it rather than send it. I don't feel that people are interested in my opinion any more or just ignore it.

That's not true LW, well not for me at any rate. I read all your posts. Can't get enough of 'em to be honest. ;D

What you have to remember with that forum is in my experience if no one can disagree with your posting they just ignore it. So, just like me - LW you are 100% right all the time... ;D

Followed by Poole fans and those who go on and on and on about how crap the EL is. You PL fans need ambition!!!

The EL is crap!!! ;D

Back in the old, old days of the forum when I was just a girl the saying was EL was steak and chips, PL was egg and chips and the CL spam and chips.

Much prefer a nice runny egg to an overdone, overworked lump of beef thanks. ;D

Thats fine SS not a problem at all as you genuinely prefer the PL, its just these tossers that continuously slag off the EL that piss me off. I can picture some of them, already composing their posts for the BSF poised to press the send button the moment tomorrow nights Sky meeting finishes. One person even used the Garry Stead thread on the BSF to have a pop!

Jim...Thanks.

You do realise that the filter could be used to implement the Weird Lexicon as standard - so "Coventry" is always rendered as "B.O.D.", "SN" as "The Beggar" and so forth

You can still have the occasional good discussion on the BSF, but it's become a victim of its own success, whilst the mods have become drunk on their own sense of power. They seemingly do little to clamp down on personal attacks and thinly-veiled racist remarks posted by about three people with multiple personalities, yet as soon as anyone posts a thing about Peterborough (or Greg Hancock), the thread is closed or deleted on the grounds as being off-topc.

Of course, the BPL good, BEL bad (or BEL good, BPL bad) stuff, and 'they're watering down the BEL' discussions also get bit tiresome, but only be expected I suppose.

Of course. Try typing chuff*ng and see what it comes out as.

On the Wolfcry forum we've 'edited' the filters to say 'Overated Spoon' everytime anyone types Penhall and 'Spoonland' everytime they type Cradley. It gets really funny when the Cradley fans get all irate over the filtering!

The EL/PL thing has been going on for as long as I can remember - in my day it was British League V National League! It's a prime example of reverse snobbery! In reality both leagues have their positives and negatives, you can see a great meeting in the EL and a crap PL one - and vice versa. Only one lelement pisses me off though - when some wag comes up with the old 'How can they call it the ELITE League?' It's just a name folks! How can they call the 'second' division the PREMIER League?

Gets my goat EVERY time!

But that's because Wolves are a dull club. Hell, even you struggle to think of worthwhile, interesting things to say about them. Time to face facts: CVS and Peter Adams, fine speedway administrators though they may be, just aren't interesting.

WOLVES aren't a dull club per se but the people who run it have NO ambition anymore and seem content to build a team that 'might' get into the playoffs each year. They stick with riders who are obviously not up to the task and won't change the team unless injuries dictate. We have a good track, well prepared which often produces fantastic racing. We have some very exciting riders - Freddie, PK on his day, even Billy if he's fit and on decent bikes - but we also have some totel dross that needs pruing......not with OUR management team though. Add in the 'tactics' of the legendary master tactician that is Peter Adams.....which seems to consist of reading your programme and smoking whilst your team get whalloped by the oppostion.......and I can understand where the 'dull' thing comes from!

Surely you must realise that I am well aware of the 'facts' about our 'management' - To be honest if Horton wasn't around I can't think of anyone more worthy of the Lord flapperjack title than CVS!

Classic post lupie ;D one question thou is adams allowed to smoke in the pits ;D

[Deleted]

Keeping my fingers crossed that they'll BAN him - not from smoking but from the pits!

Not true. It just looks like our swear filter is weird.
