Profanity Filter and OCE Data Center

[Nora_of_Mira]

First off, how come there's now harsh chat rules despite the fact the use of a profanity filter that's not only built in game, but enabled as default? In order for someone to have reported it, they would have had to willingly disable it, yaknow?

I think it should be a bit more lenient, maybe if you had disabled it you acknowledge that there's gonna be some foul language. Not to say that slurs used against people in an aggressive sense, but if someone uses language to describe something like "Oh man this is f*cked", yaknow?

I agree, the rules against profanity are a bit ridiculous. It doesn't even matter what the context of interaction. For example, if I'm in a farm party for something and I accidentally die to a mechanic because I was dozing off/losing focus and I type "...oh sh*t" as a joke, technically I can be reported. It's ridiculous. I understand the need to try and prevent harassment and slurs thrown at people, but sometimes it comes off as some weird puritanical attack when someone gets upset at a tame, self-deprecating joke I made about myself.

Same, only time I cuss is when I mess up big time and basically cuss at myself, like "Oh ffs I'm a dumb*ss" or something like that, to let my party know I'm ware that I messed up and probably more annoyed about it than they are lol

thankfully nowadays, the only people that hear me curse are my discord friends when the stupid birds in E2S give me their stupid damage down thanks to a server tick or stupid hitbox.
