What’s up with the auto censoring?

So, what’s up with this? “TR-ANNY” is a bad word now?

You know, the letters of the alphabet group that just keeps adding letters and symbols! It's getting outta hand. @BigPapa, Glad to see you're not truckless anymore. How's the new to you ride treating you? Hope it gives you good service as a buddy has well over 300K on a '04. He hasn't complained about anything major. Just things that bug him coming out of a Ford 250 that got totaled.

I’ve actually had the Avalanche for six or seven years. I bought it from my father for my son to drive when he was 17, just never really considered it a truck . Had to put a transmission in it last spring. It has @ 300K on it.

Please don't automatically assume the worst motives.

We couldn't care less if you use the word or not. But we do care when we spend hours of costly time dealing with ad services whose machine learning systems don't understand context. They have sent us a warning about "sexual content" at least three times in the last year or so for that word.

There's time involved submitting appeals which usually fail (because they again use machine learning), then appealing repeatedly until a human reviews the page. It makes no sense to spend hours on this again and again, when 5 minutes to set the Xenforo word replacement prevents the problem from happening again. And it solves the problem without changing the meaning of posts one bit.
