We understand and share in your frustration!
Site Author has banned words that are limited to those capable of being scr_ipt in commands to inject hacks to the now archaic system used by Chockstone.
There aren’t many and they can be worked around (as exampled above!), but he’s reluctant to publish them as the hackers sometimes do read what’s here looking for ways into his system.

We differentiate between legitimate registrations and users.
Most people who frequent this site are registrations.
The spammers who use this site we call out as such.

It isn’t ideal as a platform due to the loss of functionality but it’s better than having it overrun with spam, which was the way it was headed before the restrictive measures were introduced.
