Maybe they think SUF is the French form for FU.

It is probably some anal retentive lawyer who has put out a paper in legalsleeze telling some newly arrived programmer from New Deli what is acceptable.
If I was in that position I would set up the computer to wipe out every combination of FU possible cause whatever the lawyer wrote would not make sense to anyone but another lawyer.
Or someone complained that you had just leaked some insider information.

I have been wiped for no reason by the same goof at SH as well.

I have not a clue why, but I have a guess. The format looks like the spam posts that frequent sites like RB, SH and SI...you know, the ones that include a URL, just like yours did.

If so, it could be a poorly-written bot that snuffed it out.

In fact, your entire post reads like many of those spam posts, and would be classed as such, except it was an entirely on-topic post. Guess they didn;t consider that possibility?

In any case, your only mistake was posting on SH. [grin]

Ooohh, look at that. $4.
