I feel that this forum has become too negative.  Therefore, starting today, all (well, most) negative words shall be replaced with something more uplifting in order to help cheer this sad place up.  Namely, smileys.  :)

I also feel that this community's lingo and jargon is too confusing for new players.  Therefore, I am also implementing some changes that will force us all to speak more plainly.  You will no longer be able to use some popular RA2 slang, but I hope that our posts will be more understandable in general and this will be a more welcoming place for new players.

Thank you for your understanding and I hope you'll all cooperate with the new rules!  :mrgreen:

All right guys, I removed the filters and everything is back to normal.

Um.  It wasn't blocking swear words.  I filtered random words like "no", "not", and "awful", as well as RA2 words like "arena", "LW", "MW", and "popup".

Also you need to stop bumping old threads.  Unless you have something really important to add, generally you shouldn't post somewhere where the last post was made more than a month ago.  (the date of posts is in the upper left corner.)
