Okay, I've just noticed that the words "y o u" and "n o" are transformed by the forum to "nay" and "ye". Is this a possible joke I missed or is there something wrong?

Edit: now "a r e" is changed into "be" and "m y" into me automatically :blink: Is this my computer freaking out?

I think this has something to do with the fact today is the International Talk Like A Pirate Day. It seems strange that all the words that could be Piratey, have turned Piratey... perhaps the Mods thought we should acknowledge the Pirate in all of us. :p

It took me about five minutes to figure it out when I typed "He.llo y.ou a.re s.tupid" and previewed it and it came up as "Ahoy, ye be stupid." That made me crack up. :laugh:

I just realized my signature says ""There be nay stupid questions, just stupid bilge rats." LOL! :lol:

Yes, that little word censor control we have is quite useful sometimes...
Who would have thought it could be put to such... piratical uses? :bones:

Glad you people are enjoying it! :pirate:
