Phone number auto-censor issues (by YouCantFixStupid)

@Andres: is there any way to edit the programming that censors phone numbers so that it won't affect urls posted as links? I am enjoying the posted links and making it easier might encourage more to use them. Thanks :^)

Yes! That would be nice, because now I often have to upload an image to a website that will change the url to one with few numbers in it, in order to post a link to it here.

I've increased the number of digits required to trigger the auto-censor of phone numbers. Hopefully, that will help with the URL's. I can't imagine there being too many URL's that contain such large sequences of numbers.

What is the amount of numbers in a row you have increased it to Andres? for future reference.

From 7 to 9. I'll see how it goes. I just need to have it done automatically because I was wasting way too much time manually editing out phone numbers in posts.
