Why is BMP as a debugger alternative a banned keyword?

Uwe Bonnes

Hello,

for explaining debugger alternatives, I wanted to give BMP as an example. However explaining it with full words triggers some filter and rejects the posting. BMP is a legal product https://1bitsquared.com/collections/supporting-hardware/ with surrounding free software.

Please reconsider!

Yes this is correct, "B1ack Magic" is a commonly used term as Clive states, and one could argue "B1ack Magic Probe" taken out of context would also be an undesirable group of words. It is an unfortunate choice of product name. As a workaround you could call it the BMP21 as they mention on their product page.

It would help to have a list of banned words or some other hint. Getting a whole posting rejected is not helpful.

Problem is if we publish a list of banned keywords then this is easy for a spammer to find/use to their advantage. This doesn't happen often, and as you did, you then reach out where we can discuss and respond.
