Any of our great and mighty admins or other brave souls care to explain what causes this filter? :lol:

Edit: I'm not really complaining about it mind you, just wondering what the logic behind it is...it's clearly not a direct word-replacement, because the word that got filtered has been used in other cases with no problem, so.

page2get is what sets it off. I believe the admins were tired of seeing silly people posting that everytime a thread went to a 2nd page, so they put in a filter word to make it look even sillier.

Almost right, the filter is applied to anything that contains Page and Get, with no spaces. Not just page 2 get, even page 3 get, hell, even page ZOMGWTFPWNT get, with no spaces, would get filtered.

It would appear that anything between the words page and get with no spaces included to seperate (sans filter break) causes it.

I'd love to think that we got rid of it by rating it down, but in reality, we all know they just got bored of it.

Don't it.

honestly, a hover craft full of eels sounds a lot cooler than a claimed page in your name!

Except if it were baby photos, it would be like looking at before and afters of Michael Jackson. Only instead of turning into a white guy, he changes into a chick!
