The individuals from The Works of John *** (4 vols.) are now available.

You don't mind earning money on John D-i-c-k's work, but his name can't be mentioned on the forums without being censored as obscene. Isn't that rather disrespectful towards the poor guy?

Furthermore, the forum software isn't content with censoring just the visible words, it also censors the invisible url, which, of course, breaks the link...

    Censorship software is notoriously problematic. 

    Short of disabling it, I'm sure the forum guru could get in there and manipulate the word-list.

    Hmm Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you.

    I wonder what might happen if the censoring were turned off?

    Probably others with years of experience with Logos users would cringe at the thought. But more seriously, I suppose it's necessary?

    I will admit though, spraying 'popcorn' on the ceiling in the garage yesterday, a censor would have been extremely helpful.
