Have the mods thought how they will rename the words back - they've obviously ran a SQL script to replace the work 'C anon' with 'S ony', but what about changing it all back? Someone may have a S ony Alpha 100, and have a C anon Alpha 100??

Shhhhhh Don't tell 'em

 

[robbys82]

im sure it will be a doddle, it could be just replacing words as they come out of the database.

I've just been inspired to place a broken sign on the coffee machine in my caffine dependant office, might as well get something in before 12
