Language Filter Is Crap

[Wobble]

I know it probably set for some kind of PG-13 crap or something but even still I don't want to see:
A**
Bit**
Sh**
Dam*
God Dam*
Either as I'm sure most that set the filter also do not want to see them.

Just a pet peeve...

OkThanksBai.

Personally I don't use the filter because... I don't care
but
Someone suggested a custom filter, where you put in your own words. That would be nice to have, I think. (and it'd be better, like full censorship of whatever's in your "filter list")

If the words you see are religiously or sexually offensive to you, report the player. Its against the TOS.
Otherwise you need to grow up a bit and understand that people say bad things out in the big scary world. Learn to ignore it, becausr you'll be hearing bad words for the rest of your life.

I happen to be 46 and have heard them all my life and said a few (no longer do) but my point has nothing to do with that, it has to do with filtering all the words I expect the filter to filter, thanks!

This one I like.

If you don't want to see even that stuff, you should probably just go back home and crawl under your bed, because that's about the only place you won't find it.

Those terms are all even said (more or less) by numerous NPC dialogue.

Still not the point...

Can't help but chuckle a bit at the fact you used 'crap' in the title but *'d out some words many would find less offensive.

So you would find sh** less offensive than crap? I think you might want to set priorities.

I think they were more likely referring to the word 'damn'. I've seen Saturday morning cartoons that use it infrequently.

There's only one thing that annoys me about the filter, and that's when it asterisks out words that are clearly not intended to be curses. For example, writing "isn't it" becomes "isn'* **". A smarter filter would probably help, but it's also probably more trouble than it's worth to make one.

For my part, I keep the filter on simply because I have young children and I don't want them picking up bad habits. It doesn't offend me personally. The biggest problem with making the censorship more heavy-handed is that we'll end up getting more unintentional censors than before, and that would eventually make chat unreadable with it on.

I said 'some' of the words, not 'all'
