forename is on band spam word list

Post by Astroquattro »

Hi,

I just finished my first post in this forum and I relized that my forename is on the banned spam word list. I understand that keeping a forum free of religous loaded words, but banning C_hristian is discriminatory against people who are named like this.

So is it really necessary to do this?

cheers,
C hristian

I apologize for that. Our spam filters automatically pick out words that occur frequently in spam posts.

I suspect the issue with your name has more to do with a famous brand of footwear that is popular with counterfeiters and heavily advertised via spam. I'll see if we can get it removed from the list.

Don't bother! That explains a lot.
