Over here There's talk of a site deteriorating. It's used extensively by people sussing guitars...user reviews etc. (Harmony Central...I've visited quite a bit...even left a review once). One of the better ones.
Is it possible, as one poster suggests, that a site could be compromised by 'baddies' out there? Or is he/she being tongue-in-cheek?

Oh, apropos of nothing, over at a guitar forum, I just posted the word 'damn'...in the context of 'sounds damn good'. It got auto-edited to '****'.    :laugh:   If you installed that editor here Joe, some peoples' posts would be largely a series of asterisks.    :laugh:    :laugh:

Sites can be taken over rather easily. It appears though that site just did some upgrades. Probably new and improved software along with security updates etc...

Generally speaking, some users are fickle and don't like change. Even if it means making improvements it's still a shock to their delicate ecosystem.

I tried the word filter here once. People didn't much care for it. :laugh:

Can someone please translate everything Frailer just said? Thanks. I sure do miss Australia sometimes - hope I can return someday.

How come I can apparently be understood in Illinois, but not in New Mexico?    :huh:     Oh, BTW, did you understand the question? Or should I re-phrase it?    :undecided:

Maybe you're just concentrating too much on the grammer.
