"message rejected for vulgarity"

Postby masonbcool » Fri Jun 19, 2020 4:00 pm

The "C Word" (which I can't type out as It corrects to "Fine Person of the Female Variety") gets rejected whenever you try to type it, but why?

The chat filter exists for a reason, and when I turn it off I shouldn't have another pointless filter there.
and this word makes no sense as one of the few things to be censored, considering words like "dick" and "pussy" and are allowed, the definition for the word is "a women's genitals."

I don't really see a reason as to why this word is more vulgar than others.
If the admins think it's only used against women, it's obviously not, it happens to be one of my favorite words to call every variety of fine folks.
that single word is not even the worse insult I can think of, I'm sure anybody could think of something that could be considered more vulgar than that singular word

so when you can call people things considered slurs such as retard, I really don't see the point in this.

There are two filters in the game, one softfilter which replaces words with others and one that contains words to not be used (=blacklisted), the "Fine Person of the Female Variety" one would belong to the filter for not allowed words, same as for example racial slurs.

What you mentioned is not considered a slur as far as I know.
Disclaimer: I try to abide by the game's softfilter and use the appropriate replacements, when I am using the forums. Those will be set in brackets. Example: [tarnation]

Indeed. As Americans, and with our highest number of users coming from America, we definitely view some words differently than people from other countries.
