I'm trying to post a live music event with this as the discription:
FRIENDLY FIRE is a glamtastic power punk pop rock band that’s taking SL by storm! Guitarist Case Munro and bassist MacKenzie Rasmuson are shaking the grid with high energy original rock and roll guaranteed to knock your virtual socks off!"  I tried changing "SL" to "the world" but I still get this: Please correct the entries highlighted in yellow. Invalid Event description, please try again. I don't see and nawty words.  /me wonders if it's ok to say those 2 names in the forum  |

As bad as the word filtering is, you should try misspelling bassist as basist.

I always post this in the Event description box: LIVE MUSIC FRIENDLY FIRE FIRST For the Sunday event @ Echo Echo  The body of the event can have many more words, but the Event "title = Description" must be brief._____________________

It's the new "Tastelessness" filter which is in beta.

It is the apostrophe, SL events rejects some punctuation.

Argus,
I always us this: "singers name" in the Park @ Home Expo and they always take that so I think I'm ok with the title it's something in the event description that kicks back. I'll remove the punctuation marks like Wrenfair suggests and try again. If that does'nt work I'll tyr live chat. |

I have no idea what it might be, though; live chat's probably a good way to go from here.  _____________________

Well, I have to say "glamtastic power punk pop rock band" hurts my brain, so maybe they have an actual AI working on the filtering now.

 It is the apostrophe, SL events rejects some punctuation. I guess that "apostrophe" does look a bit nawty and maybe erect.  |

Did you cut and paste from Word? I've sometimes had the same error message after a cut and paste from another program. But if you typed the text directly into Events, then I'm afraid I have no suggestions.
