An interesting tibdbit about the PC censor list.
Posted February 8th, 2012 at 05:32 AM by sammi-san
You know pretty much all the swear words that PC will kindly censor for you, but you know what else is on it? pkmncommunity.com. If you type it, it'll change it to the correct domain name. CLEARLY IT IS A DIRTY WORD.
Way back in the day, there was some strange things going on with the pokecommunity.com domain name, so it was switched over to pkmncommunity for a few months. Then we got the main domain back... Sometime after that the forum started auto-correcting it, so all the links would point the right way.
Note: I am assuming that this is done under the censor list anyway, as that's the option that replaces swear words with asterisks, which is the same kind of operation.
Also don't ban me for evading the censor ;___;
In other news, who else here was around when we had different domain names?

That's rather interesting, but I wouldn't have been here (Somehow I typed beer when I was writing this lmao) when that change had occured.
It was probably for fixing anyone that typed the old URL in instead of the new one though.Posted February 8th, 2012 at 06:16 AM by Team Fail

How long ago was the domain name change? Because I totally found this site off of Google using the pkmncommunity domain back in '07, haha.

It was for a few brief months in '07, iirc. Had a hard time finding the site when the switch to pkmncommunity.com happened, and then had a hard time again when the url switched back.Posted February 8th, 2012 at 09:26 AM by donavannj

I remember that url. XDD Though it's been gone for so long now, that they probably didn't want people typing it, and then causing confoosion. -w-Posted February 8th, 2012 at 09:38 AM by EntwinedSilence

I remember that url, I used it when I wanted to check PC without losing my cookies (since I'm in auto log-in). Nowadays I have to go on Private Mode on Firefox when I want to do that.Posted February 8th, 2012 at 03:39 PM by Went
