Is that you gricerboy?Originally posted by nealus View PostAlas posting a question and not replying with a nanosecond upsets the regulars. Thought I would ask a nice easy question, retire with some tea and crumpets, and return with a satisfied and full belly and witness the usual board-based gripes/moaning. Mission accomplished!
Thanks to earlier pertinent replies though..
As previously stated tulip is the word the swear filter uses instead of shit:. Now, should you wish to use shit:. you need to place colons around the offending word :thus:.
Do be aware that if you quote someone (or preview posts) who has used the word shit: the colons will be removed so you'll have to put them back (and retype shit: ) Have a go.
