Suggestion Disabling the language filter in PMs

CaptFirePanda

Is there any way to disable the language filter for private messages? I realize that posting certain words to the general public should not be allowed, but in private messages this would seem to be something of personal preference.

No clue if vBulletin actually supports this or not, but I thought I'd ask.


Thanks

Thanks for asking! Unfortunately it is indeed a global setting.

There is a language filter?

CaptFirePanda

Yes, it takes out all of the u's people might insert into words like "color", "armor", etc...

megin

"Color and armor aren't words, silly.

So you're saying if they are not spelled "colour" or "armour", they are not words? Well, that's true for British English. I take it that you think American English is not legitimate. We say "estrogen" you and say "oestrogen".

megin

That's exactly what I'm saying.

Ryan_m_b

Clearly he was making a joke SW.

Glad someone can pick up on humoUr.

You say "about", I say "aboot".
