...but the question remains: What are YOU planning to do in the future? Will you 'temper' your thread titles or post them in all their startling glory?

The question may remain for some people - not for me, and probably not for a lot of others. I think it is important to have the proper titles of songs there for the purpose of searching for and harvesting songs, and as far as I am concerned, John Mehlberg has gone out of his way to be helpful, and doesn't need to do any more.

Those whose sensibilities are offended by seeing rude words can use the new URL. For the sake of newcomers, I would suggest maybe putting a link to this URL on the Mudcat front page for all to see, and maybe on the forum page too for those who accidentally stumbled straight in and aren't familiar with the way the filter works, so that they will know next time. Maybe it can be in the FAQ too.

As for profanity filters, if they only pick up profanity on the forum page, the filtered forum link should take care of that, but if they search for profanity all through the site, I can only repeat what I said before on May 1 at 9.21pm: "To try to make ourselves so clean that there is no profanity at all on the site would be taking censorship to ridiculous extremes, not to mention impossible."

Nutty, in regards to your other question about the back door, I believe this works - it was simply a matter of putting the numbers in the URL instead of www.mudcat.org
