Maybe GC could let us have a list of the BANNED words. ( But I think we probably know most of the rude ones so they needn't list them) Jim, Gosport, HAM |

James, I think it means there is software in place to selectively remove these words. That's what I assume. I doubt it's illegal. If everyone were allowed to post their email addresses, GenesConnected would never make a profit. |

Does this mean that our messages are being filtered or censored? I thought that was illegal. Public response please GC Jim |

I tried to type the "Y" word too but it wouldn't appear. Maybe words like that can be typed in the original message but not in replies? |

But " Yahoo " came up on this Board, why not the Tips Board? I typed that Y word where the quotation marks are. Jim |

My guess is anything that could appear in an email address gets removed when you write messages. For obvious reasons, I'm sure the major domain names are blocked. |

I tried sending someone a suggestion that they use a search engine like Yahoo or Google, but Yahoo didn't come up. I changed it to Jeeves or Google and that came up OK. Has anyone else found that certain words go missing? Jim Gosport, HAM |
