Hello,
I've found out that the profanity filter is filtering out polak. (I've used a minor BBCode trick to make the word get through in this post).
That is not an offensive word, but a term in Polish language used to refer to a Pole (or Poles, if the "ów" suffix is added).
Understandably, I find this situation mildly offensive and would like to ask that the word is removed from the filter.

There is an offensive term used in some other countries derived from this word, but it is spelled with a C between the A and K.

PS. A previous thread on a similar subject contained instructions to contact Kyle Polulak using private messaging. This is NOT possible, however, as an attempt to send him a PM results in an error message stating that "The member Kyle Polulak can not use the messaging system".

How can the profanity filter be turned off?

Correct Droid on Roids... ridiculous words being intercepted & censored.. need the ability to turn this off

Agreed .. we're not ALL 12 years old.. need the independence of our own judgement to apply here. Extreme profanity should be able to reported.
