MyLot doesn't allow the three letter word for donkey on the site?

I was responding to a news post and used a very common three letter word that can means either a donkey or a portion of a person's anatomy and the site came back and said I couldn't do it because that word violated the site's quidelines.
After changing the three letter word to a FOUR letter word, myLot allowed me to post my response. Then, I went to the site's guidelines and reviewed them very carefully to see if something had changed. No change that would explain this reaction by the site to that word.
Have any of the rest of you had a similar experience? If so, is this a NEW policy? What did you do; when it happened to you?

I have recieved that notice a few times. I'm not sure how they choose which words are offensive though. When I got the notice I just changed the word and posted my comment.

Since you have almost 4 times the number of responses I do, I expect that over time, I will get the notice a few more times too. I wish they had a list somewhere; but, if the words aren't allowed on the site, they couldn't be on the list!
