Believe me, coming up with the banned words list for that filter was not an easy process and involved many late night debates.

LOL-- funny, that . Wish I could've been involved in that process; it probably was very interesting considering the multitude of cultural backgrounds on Daniweb. Take for example the U.K. and the United States: there are many similarities, obviously, considering our historical connections, language, Western culture, etc-- but then, at the same time, there are so many differences between the two that no representative of either country, respectively, would be totally aware of all of the differences. I assume it would be the goal to find the mean set of average language expressions that would be shared globally (at least in English). Good work.
