The last three times this happened to me, I was replying to another user whose name contains a banned word.

Of course, this makes it difficult to have a conversation with this person.

I've had to edit the line which says "Originally posted by" to alter the person's name. Others have had this same problem.

Yep, happened to me yesterday.

Edit: Just checked and the poster I replied to does have a 'rude' word embedded in his username. (Not deliberately).

Strangely, automod permits the forbidden name in the user's profile.

I could swear it used to have two i's. Maybe she sent feedback and got it changed.

I think the dog got the wrong end of the stick.

Never question a Dogg on stick gathering! We're awesome at it.

[I suppose it might be a gay guy.]

Yep, that's what I meant by the wrong end of the stick. 🙂

He has identified himself as being male.

This has been an interesting issue - as clearly there was a problem, but auto-mod has not been tinkered with in years.

Approx. 2 weeks ago, user Ashi-taka's name was corrected to the (offending) preferred spelling, by me, with no auto-mod active.

So, the mystery is solved!

edit:I have reversed the name change.
