Good question Poly. You could probably spell it differently. let's see: paedophilia

THere were problems with google sensors on an earlier version of the board if I remember correctly. All posts talking about it got flagged And he had to go back and manually change them. Then the boards went down.. my memory might not Be 100%

If specific keywords appear too often on a page or a site, they can attract the wrong kind of attention. Word filtering (not word censoring) is a basic way of preventing this from happening.
