Hey Guys
Ive got an idea to run by you all the message board on Something Fishy (a pro-recovery site) has a filter in place that removes all digits because they can be major triggers. Any digits are replaced with '*****', which means people need to go back through and edit if they accidentally add digits into their posts. Now, we have a similar rule for this forum in that we dont allow most numbers and when theyre written, staff try to edit them out as soon as possible. The problem though is that often we dont get to them before at least one person sees them and is triggered .
For this reason, a member suggested we take a look at Something Fishy and the filter they use, and I personally think it's a wonderful idea. Ive checked with my team and they are all happy for it to go ahead, but figured its your forum, so you should all get a say as well . It wouldnt automatically mean that there won't be anymore triggers in ED, but it would certainly help.
So, what do you all think? Is this something to get for our forum?
