Replace certain text or URLs with specified text

This is kinda like the censorship feature, but a bit different. They use this on T..A..Z when you try to link to a competing forum (like this one).

If you enter www.vbulletinsetup.com it changes to www.anotherboard.com
Some other admin forums will be replaced with things like "www.Idontthinkso.com"

Anybody know how I can do this?

Nevermind; the answer is replacement variables.

LMAO I was going to tell you how too. Though, I dont agree with people doing that, I mean that seems shady. If you have a competitor you should try to beat them, not hide them.

I agree that it is shady. You must be so insecure if you have to go that far to begin with.

But If a competitor does it to me, I'm going to do it back.
