| 4cura. Replace the 4 with an A. It's the luxury car division of Honda. Why is this censored? Does it have another meaning? And would it be more appropriate to submit a ticket to Mr.B about this? |

| Because there is some controversy about in-game shop titles with "A[c]ura" in their name that can hack your account when you buy their items. I guess along with famous hacker E[c]ko, they don't want us talking about that kind of stuff on this website. |

| It wasn't like a month ago I think. Maybe it just blew up because of repeated mentions of Jessie Slaughter and her incident with 'the chan.' |

| And why is 5wf censored (replace 5 with s)? There's a great youtube video that had the horrible fate of having 5wf in the URL (youtube URL are randomly created). |

| Maybe because Mr.B likes Lexus? ]= Edit: That thing at the top that talks about the people hacking you sounds like a plausible answer. However, I wouldn't know. I haven't Maple'd in a long time. |

| there were shops in FM that were labled "4cura cheap" or other variations of that and the items were beyond cheap. but if you bought it, your account would get hacked and you lose all your items. |

[/quote] It's filtered because a quite popular gif of a "dancing chicken man" with colorful music was spammed across basil for a good week or so. |

| The censor for basil evolves based on the community. If stupid words are censored, blame the stupid people misusing them |
