While responding to a thread I noticed in the preivew plane the words "I'm an idiot" placed randomly throughout what I wrote. This seems the work of those lacking a life and involvement in the real world, what can be done?

I've read elsewhere from others experiencing the same problem.

Doc, I couldn't even post Saturday. It kept freezing up on me. Too bad the bored worms having nothing else to do with their lives. Sad.

Thanks to Tidytourniquet I now know I must have typed a word that the filter didn't like and it replaced it with "I'm an idiot." While a bit harsh I see why such a protection exists.

For example, if I typed that I like to <deleted> with my wife, I do indeed sound like an idiot.

I've been experiencing connection difficulties today, but haven't gotten the 'I'm an idiot' thing yet...

Tantraman--Skynet.

That's funny...or could it be true?

Hahaha, you sure would sound like an idiot. It's like who over came up with that gets the last laugh on us for trying to say something that they think is inappropriate.

Hey Dr.Strange, Yep you're correct in that you read other posts somewhere here that someone else was experiencing the same problem as you're having, and that would be me. I don't know what is causing it, but I just let people know that it's not me that has put that into my sentences, don't know what else to do other then that, its frustrating thats for sure
