so are we leaving rp with the old theme?
-
@minti I don't know if they'd react well to their theme suddenly changing like that. You should try diplomacy.
-
@minti Of course not. RP gets the h4ck3r theme.
-
@slenderscribus It's impossible to beat "You guys added a filter to words we're not allowed to use anyway, I'm going to complain until you remove it"
Scribus likes this. -
@redenchilada That's about what I was getting at.
-
@redenchilada In fairness, I think a fair number of complaints were actually "filters can catch false positives", but the solution to that isn't to remove the filter, it's to make the filter tests better. (As I did yesterday, or maybe the day before, with a script that takes all the words in the dictionary and runs every regex against them, spitting out which ones match for me to prune out the actual swears and have just false-positives left.)
-
@bitshift Ooh, did you upload the list anywhere? I'm interested.
-
@redenchilada I already pushed fixed regexes for all but one case (the regex which still catches ****ycat), but I can generate the list again if you want it?
-
@bitshift Eh. Don't wanna make you run it again.
-
@bitshift That... was smart.
-
@redenchilada It takes barely any time to run (I already ran it in the time between my post and that reply), python's regexes are plenty fast as long as you compile them if you're going to be using them repeatedly.
-
@bitshift THANK YOU for being one of the people that know this. It's one of my OCDs. xD
-
@redenchilada http://node.psquid.net/badword_matches.txt (That's the full list of matches, swears included (so I should probably tag #nsfw), without the corrected regexes - most, if not all, of the false positives in there are correctly handled by the amended versions.)
-
@minti He mints. Big pony is playing Metal Gear.

-
@slenderscribus What were you thinking was going to happen!? D:<
-
@slenderscribus Oh man.
-
@slenderscribus Yeah, that whole set is one of the most amusing sets of false positives. Also one of the trickiest to fix without letting swears through in the process. D:
-
@bitshift Some of those, though, it's like, "Who even says that?" And then, of course, we'll discuss Shakespeare and it'll pop up and well. . . . XD
-
@bitshift Am I a bad person for saving a copy of this?
-
@eaglehooves Probably.
