What's with K-I-N-G being censored?

[tplyons]

From what I can tell, every instance of the word k-i-n-g (as in queen's husband) (or as part of a suffix) has been censored. Why? Bug?

I've never heard this used in a derrogatory manner.

**** **** ****?

obviously a bug in censoring certain swears.

 

[Chris Fitzgerald]

Sorry about that. There's obviously a bug with the profanity filters, as some members are using the particular word in question phonetically in a phrase as a workaround against the existing filters. I'm thin**** that this bug is ma**** things look pretty funny around here at the moment.

**** Arthur!

 

[tplyons]

Yep, I'm thin**** this is pretty rediculous. Certainly is loo**** rediculous. I don't think the **** of talkbass would approve of something loo**** so odd. And how about the guys at **** doublebass? That's gotta suck for them.

The **** is gone, but he's not forgotten.

Amazing. I was posting on setup and repair (bass guitar) and used the words hi**** boots. It was censored. Now, it's pretty obvious as to what the filter thinks it's seeing. The question is why?

Amusing.
