I'm still using the 1.6 version of my little forum and I'm very happy with it were it not for the huge increase in spammers haunting the forum. I've managed to fend most of them off through adding typical spam words (like medicines, different sex words, etc.) and URLS to the banlist.

However, recently a user of the forum wasn't able to submit a post to the forum including the word "socialists." This word is not on my ban list, and since the forum is mainly for a discussion on philosophy and politics it is no doubt a rather important (=common) word to use. I checked it out, and it seems every time a user - even admin - tries to submit a post that includes the word "socialist" (with or without ending "s") the post is stopped by my little forum - "Error: the posting contains at least one not accepted word".

I've tested this enough to know that it is indeed the word socialist. Anybody heard about this problem before? It seems like a very strange word to censor in the source code...

Check these thread for information on this issue:
- Labor Fundamentalism
- Forbidden Words in Posts

Are there any more words that aren't allowed? Anybody know where/why/how this error arises?
