Seinlanguage Question

Is "schmoopie" a TOSable word? I had a post pulled from an AOL message board when responding to someone calling me a lunatic I replied something to the effect of "I love you too, schmoopie".......of course, in the absence of my sarcastic voice inflection, and the board monitor obviously NOT a Seinfeld fan.......sigh. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

How can a word, that in any language doesn't exist, be seen as a 'bad word'?

You never know in what language it does exist. A friend of mine was using the Latin expression 'cum laude' on a message board and got censored.

LOL-I am going to assume that there must be an automated system that does that. I don't think a rational person would be that ignorant. Angela

No, believe it or not, real people moderate the AOL boards. I was on a music board on AOL, it was the biggest board on AOL. A moderator came in there and started censoring posts. They had no idea about the music being discussed or anything. We "revolted" and switched the board to Egroups. We even received apologies from AOL and they asked several times if we would come back. We also heard that the person that was the moderator for that board, no longer does that for AOL. My point is, on AOL, anything can be offensive to them. They will TOS you for anything.

My response might have been, "Hey you dumbass f**king idiot, schmoopie is a f**king term of endearment god dammit, don't you ever watch Seinfeld, sh*t for brains??"

But then again, maybe not as I avoid fascist controlled AOL message boards. :-)
