Profanity filter insanity
QKO:
Errrn I tested, Moby Dick cannot be used as airship name. The Intercourse is perfectly valid however.
Clara Skyborn:
Oh, interesting. I see how that happened. Should be fixed now.

Hey, let's not completely obliterate language.
Profanity is profanity, but anyone who is the least bit creative WILL find a way to get around it.
I like that the filter catches the shock terms, but there has to be a better solution than adding every possibly dirty word...
I feel like Intercourse is closer to the "should be censored" edge of the spectrum, but I worry.

In spite of my ineptitude with language (or whatever DMax says) I like words. I dislike seeing words obliterated.
DMaximus:
Hey, what if I want to name my ships in honor of Pennsylvania's finest towns! The Intercourse, Blue Ball, Fertility, and Virginville shall be the finest ships in the sky!
(note: these are not actually Pennsylvania's finest towns)
Clara Skyborn:
I should have clarified: what was fixed was that "Moby Dick" is once again allowed, not that "Intercourse" was disallowed.
DMax, I bet you can have all those ship names, actually. Although "Blue Ball" might raise flags -- the moderators are understandably a little ball-shy (you would be, too, if you read the stuff they read every day).
