OMG! You're right. I just tested it for myself by typing the 4 letter word that rhymes with dove and means affection. When I previewed my post it came out "!!!!"
I'm pleased this has been brought up, because even before this I thought that MSE go way over the top with banning words. But to ban the 'L' word is beyond a joke!
I guess it won't be long before my user name is banned too.
Blu :eek:I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apology
THIS IS ME!

Although the basic problem of words such as love, sale and magic being banned, has been corrected, where a link got changed to show !!!!!, it has not been automatically corrected. So the original link still shows !!!!! and will not work unless the OP goes back and puts it right again.0 -

Not sure that's the same for all links. I clicked one tonight with the word love as !!!! And it corrected itself and went to the site.Luck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams
