Why is (s t a b) a forbidden word?

[bunnyfubbles]

I got a message telling me to edit my post... apparently it thought the word "s t a b" (no spaces) was forbidden... the post wouldn't even let me use the word "stable"

because of the large number of people who posted stuff like "st@b her!" and "st@b it!" for every topic

Too many people abused it thinking they were being funny...

There was a fad on AT about... two months ago or so, where the common reply to any situation was "stick a point object at/in/near it". The mods decided that it was better for overall bandwidth and the sanity of the more intelligent posters to ban the phrase.

No it is not. It was the first few times, but now it is just another waste of bandwidth.

You could also make "s tab" appear normally, its not difficult, but OTOH, I'm not going to tell you how, either. And no, it doesnt involve quotes
