Is it possible to to get the non-word, "corp" added to the list, to change to "corps"...its just really begining to get annoying, perhaps that when all of the people that dont know about the "s" see that its always spelled that way, theyll pick up on it.
I realize that Corp is abbreviation for a corporation, but think about howmany times people discuss drum corps relative to corporation(s).

since there's a topic on the swear filter, I have a question. The rules say you may not add spaces to get around the censor blocking words... does that mean you can't say "a lot" since it's the word snugglebunny with a space in it?

Most of the filters are to prevent you from using profanity. Subsequently, using a space to type an obscenity breaks the rules. "A lot" (with the space) is an entirely different situtation. That filter is designed so that you MAKE the space. "A lot" (without the space) is not a word. Sorry.

Um... "a lot" is the proper way of saying "a l o t" without the spaces, which is not a word. Therefore, you would not be circumventing the filter, but rather using correct language!
