What's with all the asterisks?

[Qbah]

I get "at""hash""at""hash" now instead of C O M

Test com - this is C O M
Test @#@# - this is how it looks like

EDIT: Fixed again I guess? Looks OK now.

So when does regex of .com become fixed ?
Hum. Maybe it is fixed. Lets see; abc.com $5.29 ok i guess it is !!

URLs still aren't fixed. Example:

http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2282963&highlight=

I edited the URL in the body of the OP since it was said that the issue has been fixed, and while the URL text is OK, the URL that it is supposed to direct you to is still mangled.

- edit - heh, works for anandtech forum URLs, or possibly URLs that aren't at the top of the post?

- edit 2 - Ah, I think I've found the problem - when I erased the URL text before, I then copied and pasted the proper URL back on to the same line. This forum likes to try and keep formatting, so it kept the URL text seemingly. I deleted the line and put the OK URL onto a different line and it worked.

I saw this happen on another VBB site im on also. I dont remember what caused it but they got it taken care of straight away

It was exactly as you guys speculated: someone mucked up the URL censor and accidentally banned periods.

My wife says she wants to know how to ban periods.

It's a very complex process. As you can tell, we haven't quite mastered it.
