"BAD WORD ALGORITHM" gone haywire

[Litehiker]

Len,
In a recent post I wrote the word "ETHICALLY" and it was overwritten by "Rule #1 Violation". And it happened AGAIN in a "protest post".

What gives??

Can you link me to the actual posts?
or tell me how to recreate the issue?

It's in the thread "What if the 5.6 PRC had preceded the 6.5 Creedmoor?"

AND it's in THIS thread!!
The word is ethics with "ally" as the suffix.

(E - T - H - I - C - S) i he "Bad Word" This is the ONLy way I can spell it W/O the frikkin' nanny algorithm kicking in.
BTW, if the algorithm doesn't like this word maybe it's pro-Trump.

OK, NOW it is not blanked out. I dunno what happened. If you looked at the thread I named above you can go and see my posts and see what happened. As a retired English teacher I think I know how to spell "ethically" W/O screwing it up.
