What about having a new FAQ for this? It keeps getting asked all the time and no-one bothers to search for it....

The Answer (just in case someone doesn't already know): "remove the pipe | from the end of the list and click OK."

Thoughts?

Or should it be reported as bug and fixed that way in the next version?

the next version will be storing the badwords differently in the database so this problem won't happen anymore.

Maybe we could design a mod that prevented you from posting unless you have performed a search

HuwR what a brilliant suggestion!! LOL..

I appreciate that people come here as newbies and do not know the answers , after all I was like that too but at least I did know how to search.

It is easier for them to ask questions but it takes up our time (as has been said before) to answer trivial questions when a simple search by the person asking could save us so much time.

Fair enough, if you have searched and still cannot find the answer, by all means ask - but tell us you tried to search first. If you haven't searched and tell us you have, we can tell because we use the search too and also know the easy questions can be found quickly....

hmm... I see a MOD forming.

Everytime you search for something it add the search parameters to a new table. Then when you post, it will search that table, if you have not searched for that particular word/phrase you get an error.

I can see it, now...

That might be a little too restrictive.

What I am saying is we don't mind helping but it does get annoying when people won't try and find stuff for themselves first.

I don't think you could stop it with the sort of mod you are talking about really.

As Richard said, this particular problem will be sorted with the new version for those who choose to use it. Those who don't or can't will have to learn that this is a problem and how to sort it.

If you get stuck, do a search. If you are still stuck, post a question. Simple as that.
