Before everyone gets their pitchforks out, why don't we look at the URL and see that it has the "sample-" in it? Meaning that this is an example of words that can be filtered. It IS NOT a list of words Disqus automatically filters.

There is a filter tab in the Disqus admin area, one of those tabs is "filter," here is the text around below the restricted words input box:

"Separate words with commas. You may use .* (dot asterisk) as wildcard, but be careful not to be too aggressive. For example, s.*ck will match suck, but also sock and stack. Words must be at least 3 characters in length.

Here is a sample list of restricted words[1]."
