[mg (Dawid Grzesiak)]

This regexp is removing 's' characters from the string

irb(main):091:0> "fdsa-f fdas5_-423432".gsub /[_\W]/i, ''
=> "fdaffda5423432"

While this is not:

irb(main):092:0> "fdsa-f fdas5_-423432".gsub /[\W]/, ''
=> "fdsaffdas5423432"
irb(main):093:0> "fdsa-f fdas5-423432".gsub /[^0-9a-z]/i, ''
=> "fdsaffdas5423432"
