Text Filter limitation by Varish on 05-23-2004 at 07:54 AM

Sorry to disapoint ya Patch..but here goes...

I'm sure you guys use this feature to do different things....
Like filterin Slang languages...(Ex: Ass to a**)

But i got a problem....

I can't filter, for example u to you (and r to are), because of a limitation (i think), ie. i can't filter one word, right?

Is there any work around this?

I thought i can use this feature like i use Microsoft Word's AutoCorrect Option. (i have set this feature in a way so that when i write, say >> u r here cuz of me, it automatically changes to >> You are here becasue of me.

I wanna use word filterin like that.

Next problem, i can't filter im to I'm
I can set to filter this but when i type im only I' appares.....
and my contant see it as im (while i see it as I').

Some how, its ok now. (Y)

On some features you have to close the conversation window for the feature to take effect

The minimum length is 3 characters, thats to prevent other bad things to happen. As for auto-correct, thats another way to do it, mine has its advantages too

I can get way more then 3 Patch,whatever size the first word is, the changed word can only be the size of the first word.....this only happens on msg's you receive. like if I wanted asswipe changed to buttwipe, it would only come out as buttwip

i really wanted to change 'gtg' to got to go and 'brb' to be right back. i'm sure you get my drift so far its not to what i expected it to be.

You can change it,

The maximum number of letters in the replacement can only be as much as the original word

(In messeges you receive only)

RE: Text Filter limitation by Varish on 05-23-2004 at 08:16 AM

ahhhh..........for messeges you receive, got it.

RE: Text Filter limitation by Varish on 05-27-2004 at 02:51 PM

I still can't understand why i can't filter one word i send (u >> you). Can some body explain to me?
