    Chat filtering hilarity.

    So you can talk about one testicle, but if you talk about both of your ?????????, well, SE doesn't think that's okay.

    Filtering is silly in the first place, but filtering a medical term is just ridiculous.

    If you only have one, it might be a medical condition wherein you only have one, and therefore, the singular notation is acceptable.

    Having two of them isn't an accomplishment.

    What about if you were born with just one but got surgery to add a second, isnt that an accomplishment?

    When the game launched there was one particular word that wasn't bad but was filtered anyway and I wish I could remember what it was because it made me laugh and cry. I was confused as to why they couldn't tell what I was talking about. I wanna say it had something to do with doors but hell if I can remember.

    The filter is pretty useless... even if you type innocent words it can filter part of them.

    An example is basement... it will come up as ba?????t because (/shock horror) it contains the word semen. Yeah.

    I think everyone has this toggled off anyway, otherwise you probably wouldn't be able to read 90% of LS/Party chat lol.

    Its a simple "Badword Filter". You also can see that in a lot of Chats, Forums, Games. But there you go.. they added a Toggle for it, so i dont understand the Problem the OP got?!

    No its not. Filter are everywhere in the WorldWideWeb, Games etc. Its for childsafety in first place. If i open a Site and Boobs jump out of a PopUp Window, its nothing my kids should see. So im glad they added Filter, where i can Block shit like that.

    Its the same with Chatfilter.

    If it's really important to you, you could talk about one testicle first, and then about the other ...

    the above should not be taken seriously under any circumstances.
