Re: New

Thank you kaw! Really, REALLY thank you since some players type such words in cc and wc...

But can the filter also stop those words with spaces? Other players did that so they wouldn't be silenced at all...

When you post a prohibited word on the forums prohibited word it will simply be removed from your post.

Additionally we remind players that even if content doesn't bypass the filter its context is still taken to account.

So if I'm correct, the word will be removed from the forum, however the context will still be taken into account. If that happens, you give forumers a false sense of security because they believe they are still able to cuss in the forums. Also by taking out that one word, you could change the entire context of the phrase.

As an example (as in don't silence be bro), let's use this phrase: "Well, that's ****ed up atleast." You can easily tell that what was meant to come out is not: "Well, that's up atleast.". This would become confusing for people that didn't know the filtered out word and be annoying to every time and ask what they meant to say.

Here's another: "Lol, stop whining and complaing like a ." Now, let's also take into context that what you said, although it was accepted by the filter and has no bypasses, still has an understood 'bad word', you would not only be silenced in-game, but would also receive a forum ban all because you had a false sense of security.

There are many players that write with the words that first come into mind, and most of the time the words that would come out are 'bad words' instead of ones that are 'ATA acceptable'.

These players would be banned and silenced just because they thought that they were able to stay in the filter, not knowing that they were breaking anything because they were given the 'thumbs up' by the filter? That simply doesn't seem correct, and I hope that you would rethink your decision of deleting the word, and instead replace 'x' bad word with 'y' acceptable word. Although there are bound to be a few mishaps, it would still may mess up a few times, most of the sentences will not take a different meaning than the one that was originally intended.

Another reasonable thing to do would be when the person first opens the forums, you make them accept a warning that says something like: "Possibly Inappropriate Language and Words" and recommend that the player ask someone of the age of x check the forums before allowing them to use it, and if they don't agree, disable that person's use of the forums with a button. Later, if the parent or guardian changes their mind, or the person becomes of age, they could message feedback or support to reenable (wow, that looks weird) their access to the forums, since we all know that always works.

I don't really swear so I'm not affected. But, I have still seen bypasses since the update.

Hmm. I wonder if "Circumstantial" is still filtered.

Circumstances for the win...

Maybe they should fix this in PM. Really make you guys cry for a few days.

So why are you guys upset? Because you can't use filtered words that leave asterisk in world chat? Surely you just bypass clan chat anyway right? My pm's and CC seem to be just fine.

Idk? Seems like a minor issue to me. Not worth talking about targeted age groups and money. Empty threats. It's a game with 9 plus rating still at the apple App Store. You guys knew this when you downloaded it. Yet you all still pervert up your CC's and Pms daily. Then get a little upset because of public forums and public world chat get changed a little.

This isn't a civil rights issue. It a kids game. Even if adults are playing.

Now take your KaWcaine with a dose of humility. Tap tap.

Re: New

Really though. It like me playing in youth basketball league or rather helpin, then getting mad when I'm ask not to use profanity.

Or coaching in little league and getting upset when the parents ask me to watch my language.

I just do get on the grounds we all knew it was a game rated for children. I can't wrap my head around it. Especially since your private conversations and clan chats really aren't regulated.

Uneccessary words aren't for children right? That's what kaw is trying to filter off but some people still don't care if they say those words or not. If children play this then unprohibited things should be kept away from them for them not to see it and learn something uneccessary from it. But, whatever precautions kaw do, they still say it and they sometimes don't even care of the rules.... I wish this filter will however lessen the unwanted things some people say...
