On Site Censorship

Does anyone else get caught out by writing names or common expressions and then find that they've been automaitically censored? I've had this happen a couple of times and I find it really annoying that I can't use a name or phrase without it being censored, it seems like there's no context to the censorship, just a blanket ban, are we not grown ups who can sort this stuff out for ourselves? I think this site is to nannying at times and yet seems to allow other things to slip through unnoticed.

  • I just got a blocked word on the wildlife thread, I was listing birds I have in my garden and mentioned a small blue one that has a similar name to mamary organs. This gone beyond ridiculous now and into the down right patronising and stupid, it's stopping our ability to discuss legitimate and harmless subjects such as garden birds, this is real censorship, not something that someone who goes round with a face like a cats backside, looking for things to be offended about could object too.
