Is cool with a "k" (such as my name) been cencored out? The reason I'm asking is because I typed my name out in a posts, and it reverted to the word "cool".

Yes, a number of common "IM chat" spellings have been set to be auto-corrected, including kool --> cool..

All of the changes should be listed throughout this thread. Look for posts by Tempest or myself):

We've tried to veer away from "correcting" IM spellings that infringe on other "proper" spellings, but here's a situation where you fall underneath the word censor because of your user-id..

Hm.
