I have just been blocked from sending messages because I used the word "dr*gs". I had a warning yesterday for using the word "c*erc*ve". Neither time were the words being used in a shady way.

I dont know where Fab bought the algorithm from but they really need to ditch it. This unnecessary censorship of everyday English language is not making us safer, is not making our experience better, and will make the messaging and forum functionality of Fab unusable. An arbritary block does not fix anything, and we are left to guess which word trigegred the algorthimm. We're adults talking adult themes for goodness sake and I dont need protecting from everyday words!
