Just because something says "own" in the middle of a word (e.g. "town" or "download") doesn't mean that you can time them out indiscriminately!

Great Add-On! It keeps the most obnoxious people out of sight and protects therefore against abusive reporting as well. The only thing i would have wished for is a more clear description of the filter term behaviour (implicit asterix?) so i don't have to try & error my way to the final success, wich is a great benefit, no question about it!
