WSO: "Government" regulation

Hey has anyone else noticed an increasing amount of big brother activity on this site? Lately I've been trying to quote people and for some reason I end up triggering the spam filter.

Worse still, I try to call someone on their stupidity in a mildly insulting way, and my comment needs to be examined by a MODERATOR before it's posted.

A moderator. Really? I thought this was WSO, the most pro-capitalism forum on the WWW. Is the site, like America, turning towards gasp Socialism? Are the silver banana leaders colluding to stamp out competition in the monkey marketplace?

Is Patrick the new Obama?

 

It's just Patrick trying to fix the spam filter. If someone uses a flagged word, it currently requires moderator approval. I don't think this is the way Patrick intends it to work long term, it's just the current system while Patrick tries to get everything working properly.

And no -- the Silver Banana leaders are not colluding -- we're in deep competition and fighting amongst each other to maintain our ranks. Given the limited # of credits each user has, it's difficult to secure large quantities of SBs these days!

I just gave you an SB...happy now? Stop whining...The SB leaders are very competitive and probably spend more time on the site. Come back when you're off the rag.

Anyone knows what triggers that filter? I had a couple of pretty long (but IMO insightful) posts being queued and never appearing. It's pretty frustrating when the message is long and now gets lost somewhere in the system w/out a chance to make some edits to it or something.
