Stupid filter tricks

As I discussed yesterday, I signed up for a Morph Application Platform developer account, but ran into a snag subscribing to the DevCenter service. The snag was simple: my name is Heller. The second reply to my trouble ticket explained and fixed the problem:

Hi Martin,

After looking at your reported support ticket, we found out that the subscription name you entered contains the word "hell". Our system explicitly filters all words that contain "hell". Sorry for the inconvenience.

We have have made the necessary changes for you to register the "mheller_dev" subscription name.

Thank you.

If you have any problem please contact us again.

As the army training films used to say, "Men, don't let this happen to you."
