    Possible use of a word filter
    I've only been here a short time but I've seen this a bunch of times...

    Someone is discussing using PAM (Provent-A-Mite) and a newbie comes in thinking they mean the cooking spray. This could be VERY detrimental to a new snake if the owner decides to coat them in cooking spray. :O

    Is it possible to setup the word filter so that when someone types "PAM" it auto converts it to Provent-A-Mite?

    Look at this thread and posts # 6, 7 and 9

    I REALLY think this is a good idea before someone does some major damage to their snake by coating them in cooking spray

    Hasn't there been talk of this?

    I know Redtailboa.net uses a system like this.

    But what it does is it makes commonly abbreviated things highlighted, and then at the end of they're post, it tells you what it means.

    You have a point there.

    I remember reading "PAM" and thought it was the cooking spray until someone said Provent-A-Mite.
