    We should put the banned b word as an output on the filter so people who are trying to say it get censored but 1 in 10 times they succeed. Also people who were trying to swear might get censored with it, which is also a plus.

      @thelastgherkin I support this. It'd also be mildly annoying at times to people who have developed an aversion to it.

      @thelastgherkin I'm actually curious exactly how the filter works now. Like, if there's a filtered word on the filter, and a word gets filtered into that word, would it get filtered again?

        @razzleberry If I correctly recall, the filter only filters once. Input > checked by filter > censored by filter > output. No reason for it to be checked more than once.

          @thelastgherkin Aw. I was hoping there would be a slight chance that the filter catches itself in a loop of constant filtering and the site just implodes.

          @thelastgherkin @razzleberry It can however filter again if the output causes a new filtered word to be formedwith what's left of the post. Happened at least once to cerulean or red.

            @nerthos Unless I'm mixing it up, but I think that was the case
