i apologize in advance for posting an image of plain text, but the text display problem occurs here as well.
here is the url mentioned in the text, for your hyperlinking convenience:

It's happening because 'goat' has been added to the board's word censor.
There is a nasty image out on the web called 'G0atse' (actually an o, not a 0. Word sensor again).
This image is popular with people who come on the forum to spam and generally create trouble. The word censor stops the picture being displayed.

Since when has 'goat' been added to the censor list? :?

Some time ago now.
Another URL to g0atse sprang up, just taking the 'se' off the end.

I guess that's why no more of that stuff is poping up. All for the better I suppose. :)

thank you all for clarifying the whole deal about goats. :roll:
I though that the word censor didn't work on URLs ... did they find a way to change that?

Ok...? Why does it matter. The URL matters, and it has the word 'goat' in it. :?

'goat'

Ghoat isn't censored, and mostly however, the F Word with teh ph- spelling still is uncencsored. From henceforth. Ghoat will be the supplement vocabulary.
