why is that word censored out?

i tried to post that term or name earlier and it was censored out with a "*********" and everytime i tried to put the term back in, it wouldnt accept it.


why?
lol it's like that leaky faucet. Probably legal action.
I have no idea. I know Providers use the term green dot in ads and threads. I will check. Wait, it showed up for me. I can understand why since you typed it like a Backpage Ad title.

the reason I put it as g_reen_d0t was to avoid the censoring. but when I typed it normally like ********, it got edited out of my post here: http://www.eccie.net/showpost.php?p=...57&postcount=5

so I had to get creative and name it different.

green dot green dot green dot!

EDIT: you see it just did that shit!

if you dont' put a space between the words "green" and "dot", it gives you a *****

lmfao, this is so fucking silly.
********

Looks like a new mystery for Scooby and the gang.

Rick is on the right track.
Von, run a search in the staff threads, this has been in effect for quite a while right, directly from StC. I believe you will find a further call to action there as well.

Savek, when the owner goes to the trouble to intentionally put in a filter site-wide for that term, wouldn't you think there is very likely a good reason for it?
Many, many illegal activities tied to this business. Three letter governmental organizations track its usage and folks who encourage the usage of such. Money l a u n d e r i n g and much worse.

All we are allowed to say is that the site owners have determined that phrase and what it represents is a forbidden topic.

So, we are done here.
