    Well if anything we'll all be pulling out a thesaurus and finding new ways to express anger through vulgar tirades.
     
  2. Re: New

    We have not made any changes to moderation, and Clan Chat and PM's remain unmoderated.
     
  3. No matter how good you think this does to the game, the fact that this is an english filter and not everyone on this game speaks english to each other keeps making the filter and the supposed "bypasses" ridiculous.
    It blocks common words in other languages making communication between players very difficult. Not to even mention silences and erasin clan info pages for merely not understanding the language it's written on.
     
  4. yeah. no. you have a bot blocking people from saying what they want to say in clan chat. that's a change.

    The world out there is crueler place, and you're putting up a filter that literally restrict us to write mean words that are already filtered? Do you think using mean words is the only way to offend somebody? Are you going nuts? This is basically restricting our freedom of speech in a certain way man, this is wrong. People might actually leave because of this thing, you know.
     
  6. True, before they were asterisks (*). Now you can't say whatever you want. It's not the same effect, and puts a different mood in cc.

    Jesus. You guys whining gotta be kidding me.

    Think about what youre complaining about. Nothing substantial was changed. All they did was remove asterisks in filtered words.

    In fact, its ADDED words that were previously incorrectly filtered, like "circumstance."

    Its no wonder that politicians and religious leaders can so easily manipulate the public

    Sheeple.

    I played a game that replaces bad words with the word "Cutesy". I vote for this. Still removes toxicity and makes it funny :p
     
  9. Re: New

    that pop up in clan chat is annoying. truly annoying.
     
  10. Re: New

    Why not just make KAW 17 or 18 I mean last I checked PIMD is 17
     
  11. Re: New

    And I guess the plus sign is censored now too -_-
     
  12. Re: New

    The plus sign has never appeared when typing it in the forum from a device.
     
  13. so posting stars can get you silenced? .....
     
  14. Re: New

    I can understand that, but what i see most people whining about is the filter that was already in place before this change
     
  15. For once I think it would be inthe best intrests of ata to speak with players before they change………….. Things. I know a good couple of games that make rather large amounts of money by doing that. Including one thats been around 16 years. But no ata judt loves to promote themselves as a 9+ game when roughly 1% of the kawmunity is below 12. Gg kaw
     
  16. Re: New

    oh that. people fear change. they start acting all crazy.
     
  17. This is really annoying, I can't even write saurkraut! Or cockroach! And both are an everyday part of my life.... also, Mao Ze-Dong killed more people than Hitler, but you sensor Hitler not Mao Ze-Dong? And what about Stalin?

    This new censorship should be limited to WC and not CC, it should be up to us what content is used in CC. If admin in CC don't like language we can deal with it internally, why are you curbing our healthy discussions?
     
  18. Re: New

    I hope you relise kaw community it's that 90% of this game is adults... I think we can handle a few swears ...
     
  19. Re: New

    "Improved" . Yeah right
     
  20. As a lifelong potty mouth (almost 40 years now) I cannot support this move....I ******* hate being ******* censored
