    Chat mutes like that do happen, with the weirdest things.
    Don't worry about being muted. Ha ha

    Don't worry buddy, your auto correct must've acted up.

    You probably said something and auto correct turned it into a mute word.

    Its nothing bud, just turn off auto correct it helps a lot. This way your phone doesn't misinterpret what you tried to type. (:

    The bad word filter is really overzealous. If you happen to type a non-offensive word that happens to contain an offensive word such as: 'title,' the word filter will censor the first three letters: '...le.' I assume that if you get censored like such too often, then you get the 5 min ban. The censor really needs to be approved, because I doubt that any sane person would be offended by an obviously non-offensive word that may happen to contain the same letters that are used in an offensive word.

    Well buddy, you must've typed something bad by accident. The server wouldn't mute you for no reason.

    Next time you're about to send a message, read what you typed to avoid a possible mute. (:

    Actually, it doesn't work that way.

    The part that is supposed to be offensive gets censored, it gets the *'s. You don't get muted unless you say the word by itself.
