    I don't have an homepage :D

    Sorry, me having a blonde moment ;)

    There are other ways around things as well, though seemingly MSE dont want you to know that as they deleted my last mention of them, so before this vanishes...

    There are dozens of URL shortening sites for twitter etc, some of them work here :D;)

    Hi pulliptears,

    Google are changing the way they rank websites, to do with copyright infringement. We've been updating our spam filter today with the list google have. I'm paraphrasing here on behalf of the techies, but that is the crux. I'm sure we will find somewhere their policy is perhaps overarching and we need to review specifics where some of the URLs blanket cover too much.

    so http://twitter .com = http://!!!!!!!!!!!! after going through the censorship filter

    As McEnroe said "YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS"

    what next - "http" "www" and "co.uk" added to the filter?

    I imagine there is very little you can link to anymore. Madness.

    See I was a geek when I was a kid, and I loved The Smiths, I am like the perfect woman.

    ( I promise I am not a 50 year old geezer pretending to be a lass)
