I don't think it is banned, although I haven't tried it. OP simply states that that it was 'deemed innapropriate and offensive', I guess by CC. Maybe they saw it in context, which we haven't. Lots of swear words are banned and derivations of those words probably are too. I've seen some inventive ways of getting your point across in chat box though, which I always have some respect for. If you can get away with incorrect spelling then that panders to the illiterate, abusive players and I shall have to adapt my chat box abuse accordingly! Posted by Enut
it gets the 4 star treatment (starred out) but you can say gump!!
There ive said it.... sorry if youre offended by me calling you that but i needed to say it... Anyone have the feintest clue why this word would be deemed innapropriate and offensive in sky pokers chat bar? Posted by vinny67
I have absolutely no idea, Vinny.
I do wonder about it from time to time, but it's just one of those anachronisms, something that faintly amuses me rather than annoys me.
I did ask the Office about it once, & they looked at me a bit gone out.
When I used to do the daily Updates from the WSOP (FCHD, God bless him, does most of them for us now) & C & P a list of overnight chip counts, it was a bit of a nightmare, as the profanity filter gets really tetchy, & blocks out loads of seemingly innocent names, it can take ages to get sort that out.
I wonder how the filter deals with 'A nice pair', Anything to do with a jack, 'Another limper', doing a 'nice job with that hand' and 'C' betting ? Posted by Benchmark
Having just had a very nice pair in my hand i didnt dare to mention it in chat...just in case....
According to urban dictionary. The f word with 1 r is used to describe someone with a large amount of pubic hair. While with 2 rs it is a well endowed man ie he has a lot of wood I guess that is why it is on the naughty words list? Posted by Phantom66

I'm actually surprised the word 'pubic' is allowed.

So that's why someone compared me to a tree stump the other day.
