"We did a little more testing. Nigeria comes across as ***ia as reported. It makes it tough to have a conversation about one of the most populous countries in Africa. Of course, the country name Niger gets censored as does the Niger River and the first name of Niger Innis, CORE spokesman and MSNBC commentator. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niger_Innis
The innocuous words "niggardly" and "niggling" also run afoul of the censor. Not that those words come up that often, but still.
i remember when JTV went overboard on censoring. We were talking about American Bandstand on my cast and Dick Clark came out as *** Clark in chat.
I'm just asking that Mark reconsider this type of censoring. It doesn't work all that well. People will find a way to say what they want to, regardless. And there are unintended consequences as noted above. "
We'll see what happens. I'm not making a Federal case out of it. I'm submitting the one report and leaving it at that. We can work around this type of auto-moderation so long as it doesn't get too out-of-hand, although I'd rather not have to.
