Another idea. i know, i knowFollow

#1 Feb 10 2005 at 1:21 AM Rating: Decent
Here's an idea that has been tossed around, maybe you missed it, maybe you are working on it, I don't know.

Ever think about setting up a simple word filter for searching, such as, "gil" and "Omgwtfbbq?!?!?!?!" Much like what google has on their search engines now a days. My brother said he could set on up in a matter of minutes with the right tools. I wouldn't know how to do that if even if you spelled it out for me, so don't take offence if I sound arrogant.

Sorry if this has been mentioned 1000 times.

the only problem with that simple word filter is that it would need to parse somewhere on the order of 50,000,000 words. THat gets complicated real quick.

Is there any way you could order a filter? Or would you have to do all the handy work yourself?

Why don't we just eliminate the searching ability for ALL words and phrases used by the FFXI retards. Yay or nay?

Proof, your eloquence never ceases to amaze me.

Evidently, I am too old to be up on the latest hip acronyms. Just what the hell does 'ftfy' mean anyway? Is it anything at all like 'gfy'?

I do hope it's something more clever than that.

    Really? wow, that is more clever than I was expecting.

    Coming from proofsock all the time, I actually expected it probably meant something like "f*ck them, f*ck you".

    I'm relieved to know that I was wrong.

    It used to be extremely popular in the asylum. An old man named Nobby is quite good with it.
