4chan Wordfilters
The 4chan team put them in place a while back, apparently, just for the hell of it. When submitting a post to /b/, any specific word or phrase (typically meme-related ones that are heavily overused) may be changed to something else. The mods make wordfilters out of annoyance at overused memes, for the lulz, or both. Examples: "Rei" is changed to "DONATE TO 4CHAN", "emo" is changed to "bosnian", "Mordor" into "A GAPING VAGINA THE SIZE OF A HALLWAY", and anything related to "furry" into "drama". Eventually, a few wordfilters were also instituted outside of /b/, specifically to /v/ and /k/, but were later deactivated. Wordfilters have also themselves developed into memes both on /b/ and elsewhere, some posters have taken to referring to furry as drama, loli as duck, etc. Thus, a good (or at least memorable) wordfilter can survive long after being deactivated.
In March 2007 all wordfilters had been made inactive due to moot's faggotry, even the PENIS filter, which was quite possibly the most beloved wordfilter of /b/'s history. Some of the wordfilters were brought back again later.
All known wordfilters were last tested on 2010-01-17 and the list updated.
