The software program is probably set on an automatic prohibited word filter- that is why the one word version escapes notice.

Very clever!

Thats how most forum word filters are set up. There is a whole list of words that are in the database that are filtered when posted.

Yup, City Data uses an automatic word censor program that blanks out certain common words that may also have inappropriate connotations.

It's great when it works, but it's kind of silly when proper word usage gets ******* out.
