Is there a way to remove the filter that turns the letters C D, when put together, into "celiac disease" every time????? Thanks! . . . Lynne

I don't think so. Sorry....

VydorScope Proficient

There is, but Scott has to do it and I already asked, and he already ingored the request :) Same goes for G,F

If I am talking about a C D and not celiac disease, I just seperate the two letters. I do the same for D H so that they don't think I am taling about my husband.

you can always just put periods between the letters.

c.d.

Sorry but members' posts can only be helpful if a search here, or at some search engine can find the key words associated with the information that has been posted. People here use C D and G F all constantly, which makes finding their info by others in a search impossible. For this info to help others it must contain important key words (like celiac disease and gluten free).

Take care,

Scott

I noticed when I posted last that "G F" (without the space) got changed to "gluten-free." Why is this happening now? Is there a reason that acronyms need to be changed? Is there a list somewhere that outlines which words/phrases will be changed?

Michelle

who's not thrilled about having words "censored." :P

I had a similar thing happen this morning too.

I posted a recipe and one of my ingredients (a tade-name grain) was changed to "Lame Advertisment".

I had typed the word s-a-l-b-a (without the dashes).

:o This is strange, I know if you put a swear word in, it will change, even if it's also a word that could be used normally. I've had that done :lol: We just thought it was funny.

I don't know all the words, but definitely G F will change as will C D...it changes to celiac disease.

I think Lame Advertisement is another...it changes to Lame Advertisement

Lame Advertisement gluten-free cf

This is kind of fun

Guest melannen

poop, Lame Advertisement, gluten-free

hahahaha

you're right, it is fun :D

I wonder if they will correct all the acronyms? ds dh dd DH "D" "C" BIL SIL ....

will they correct typos too? :P

Mamato2boys Contributor

Lame Advertisement, poop, gluten-free, celiac disease

:lol:

:lol:

LOL!

I just found it curious, since I don't think this was happening when I first joined. There is one forum I'm a member of that simply links acronyms to a dictionary so if someone doesn't understand it, they can look it up. Hmmm...let's try a couple others to see if they change:

AFAIK

YMMV

ROTFLMAO

Michelle :D

Hmmm...guess it's not a very thorough censor! :P

Michelle

Jestgar Rising Star

maybe we should run the list of "forbidden" words and see what gets changed

Guest nini

I think it's crazy when you are reading about someone's girlfriend and they keep referring to their gluten free... or when someone is talking about the music on the compact disc in their car player and it comes out, I have the new Madonna celiac disease !!!!!!!!!!! :P

Guest Viola

Let me try something :lol:

My jerk took a poop on the golf course and I had to clean it up...don't want our golf balls to end up in it. :D

Oh, this is too funny :lol: 'jerk' is exchanged for the normal term for a female dog, and of course we all know what 'poop' replaced. :lol::lol:

Is it the same issue with referring to your DH (dear/darned/damned husband) and DH (dermatitis herpetiformis)?

I guess both could be a pain in the @$$! LOL!

note: I had to censor "ass" myself, since the program apparently doesn't find it offensive!!!

I wonder what would happen if you put "hole" at the end of it!

I used the a word and it changed to jerk

Scott Adams Grand Master

For bad words it is obvious why the filter is there. Some companies' names are changed to "Lame Advertisement" because they have broken our rules and used this forum to advertise their products.

For the rest like G.F. or C.D. Open Original Shared Link.

Take care,

Scott

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Lysine is helpful for "cold sores" (oral herpes).

      @Wheatwacked, Are you aware of the interaction of potassium iodide and losartan ?   https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/iodine-potassium-iodide-with-losartan-1368-0-1489-0.html#:~:text=Talk to your doctor before,to safely use both medications.

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
