Wes are you doing this? Is this another one of your bizzare editing things? What is wrong with the word for Dark Elf? And just to ckeck whether it apllies to me: drow

Alright it does. Wes?

3. Using spaces, numbers, other letters, or symbols (such as @, $ or !) in place of letters to...circumvent the filter is forbidden.

From Services Rules, Forum Section
Consider this your warning.

The filter in question, however, has been removed.
 
Can we get some form of list possibly of all the words we can't use, as new people in particular might hazard across them, and then use the every other letter as a symbol just to inquire about it? Perhaps not any obscene ones, just the ones that people might not think of.
 
There aren't very many. Some are to correct misspellings, others to make links. Then there's a few animated series that I don't like to hear about. ^_^;

Don't use the words just to see what the filters are.

For the same reason "vampire" used to be filtered. There's too much over-popularized, bastardized fantasy crap floating around out there that I didn't want on the site.

I've removed "h-e-h" and "pfft" and "cartoons," since they were mainly there just to give people a laugh upon discovery (same with Drow turning into exfoliating moisturizing cream).
 
There is still nothing wrong with the Lords of the Night when they're played properly! Geez Wes, you run afoul a few dozen bad players and end up with the conclusion that we all suck at it. *shrug*
