    Default I dont get why.

    Ig, you're allowed to say some profane words without any bans or mutes.

    When you say A** (-_- anyone can say that ig) on forums, you would get warnings etc.

    I just don't get it. Some Profanity is allowed ig but not on forums Eg. A**

    ...?

    Same rules, different implementations.

    In game chat filters are notoriously difficult to tweak (just try typing "not it" in game, it gets filtered to "no* **").

    Here it is easier to directly see what is or is not a cuss word.

    We try to keep it clean everywhere for our younger or more sensitive players. Appreciate it if you try to as well.

    Can you please take the mute off? Sometimes in the heat of the moment you say things. Could it just filter it to stars instead? I think it's a bit harsh.

    The mute is there to keep chat clean. For example if I typed SOB out with the actual words in game and only the B part of the phrase people still would get the meaning and if there was a little kid playing Pl, Sl ect on his parents iPod, iPhone, IPad, Android, Chrome ect. And if he/she can read he might start going around saying "Son of a" which just looks bad on the parents part and so on. But there are things that should be muted but are not an there are words that shouldn't. But you can't be perfect.

    if we get muted, can it at least come up in the chat area so people dont think we're ignoring them or something like that. this may already be the case in arcane, im just going by my experience in star legends.

    As long as they don't see the words I don't see the problem. Just star it out.

    I still don't get the age requirement of 13 for members if we still can't use any of those words. Or is that purely a legal matter?

    Exactly. I think a 13 year old hears worse things in school. If they are starred out this shouldn't make a SLIGHT bit of difference. I don't WANT the words to show. I just hate being muted when I make a mistake.

    That's what the Wave Emote is for, or Cry now

    But seriously, still think we should have a Dunce Cap appear on our heads for being muted.
