Specifically, Jack's computer cannot load a thread with the word "g a m e" (without spaces) in it. So, I'm going to put in a temporary word filter, one that will change the word to, literally, g a m e. I'm sorry for any inconvenience, but it's necessary for her mod duties.

Edit: Oh, and if anyone can figure out the problem (I honestly have no idea), please help.

Yes... whenever I try to upload a thread or section of the forum with the word "game" in it's title, I get this:

I was also on the chatbox ages and ages ago, and someone there mentioned a similar problem. Has this been happening to anyone else?

...The reason for why it's happening is pretty pathetic actually. It is a filter, one placed on all the computers in the house by my parental units, to curb the playing of online games by my sibling. With some irony, I was the only one effected (for over six months). Rolling Eyes

I would like to know how a filter on the word "game" would help at all. If the sibling is already playing games it's not going to do much, if any good.

It seems very logical if your a parent who doesn't use the computer alot.

Well, if there was g a m e in the url, it would have worked. But most games, it isn't. *shrugs*

I don't mind the filter, really. It's their network, so they can do what they like. If he'd objected strongly, I just would have asked for Maully to take of the filter and just dealt with not seeing those parts of the forum.

Pheonix: This is true. It seems logical to me too. :P

Could the fact that you're still using IE for some reason be related to this level of fail?

*Uses IE*

I think it's sad when people make negative judgements on others about their browsers. What's wrong with using something you're comfortable with?

FAIL!

Firefox is just, infinitely better.

No script + Foxytunes = rampaging ownage.
