The word "Dell" gets censored

I wrote a message last night (here), and the message had the word "Dell" in it. When I posted the message, Dell had been changed to **bleep**. I put a couple links in the message, the links didn't work because they had Dell as part of the link, and Dell was changed to **beep**. Is Dell a bad word?

I was trying to put my age in my profile. The number sixty-nine except that I used numerals, and got censored.

I mean my wife makes jokes about it but everyone else is supposed to pretend to not notice!

There were a lot of swearing at "Dell" and so the AI assumed this was also a bad word.   What the F word was also muted as was DTF which was reasoned by the AI as a variation on the theme.

Hi Mikey777,

This is a brand new forum, so there are some glitches that are being worked on. This has been fixed.
