ae mish bugged?

Now, when I first started playing a few months ago, one ae mish I enjoyed was called "Not What You Expected":

& I have played it many a time w/o a problem, NOW for some reason, I do NOT know what it is, when I click upon that mish in the ae, I get this error message when I try to enter it:

does anybody know why? I don't get it! If that is the case, then why doesn't the person fix it, or get it fixed? If it can't be fixed, then why leave it in the ae mish list and not delete it? It's like a tease, you know? Can somebody please answer?

Snide answer: Well, that wasn't what you expected, so I think the arc still lives up to the promise made by the title.

Real answer: It's related to this issue which has been plaguing MA authors for quite a while now. Essentially, they changed the profanity/copyrighted content filter for naming without telling anyone, and whatever they did SERIOUSLY broke it. It's kind of like they just fed in a dictionary of every character or franchise ever created (even those that are just normal words used as names).

The upshot is that when you have a copyright/profanity error, it renders your arc invalid to publish. But since this was applied to arcs that had ALREADY been published, most of them have been flagged as having errors, but with no outward indication to people browsing the arc list that this is the case.

Depending on what's setting off the filter, it may or may not be fixable by the author. I recently got one of my arcs fixed and it really is set off by the stupidest things. Example: I couldn't use an ally named "Reprogrammed Doomsday Droid", because it set off the filter for "D Doom". Most MA authors don't want to have to perform serious re-writes on their arcs because of something that's not their fault, but Paragon studios is taking a really long time getting this issue fixed.

Thank you.
