Erm...My name is Dr Linzy willyinson, and my login has always been linzywillyinson. As I have logged in this evening to use the Equine Services strand my name has been automatically converted to Willyinson and my login is appearing on posts as linzywillyinson. It took me a while to work it out, but really it's rather offensive. Please explain and sort it out.

I'll try again. My surname is Son of willyens. If that fails and comes up as Willyens, then work it out: my surname is Son of the author of Christmas Carol. What on earth is going on and why can't I use my name properly? Strangely, however, as I'm now logged on as a guest it appears correctly in the adjacent name box.

It's the swear filter on the board. It picks out the word 'd i c k' and converts it to something a little more PC. Unfortunately it's not something we have any control over, this being a proboards site and the swear filter is something controlled by them, not us. It's a little odd though that this has not happened before, I can only assume that proboards have updated the swear filter and it's suddenly picking up on this where it wasn't before.
The only thing I can suggest is use a number one instead of the letter I. So you'll get D1ckinson instead of willyinson.
