    Default Seriousley... Mute for this word?

    Ok this is crazy players can cuss a storm using creative lettering yet the word turd can not be used.. Is this a cuss wod in another language? I was aksed what i said i even broke it up t.....u.....r....d got a second mute, i have to say that unless this houses some other meaning this by far is not offensive in comparison to the many many other ways peeps gross players out often without provication.

    Are there other simple words i need to be aware of

    This is NOT a place i want to see peeps post cuss words but are there other general non explisit words not to use?

    auto mute system is not the best, or even good

    Did they ever remove "poop"?
    I forgot that they think we are all 5- year olds.

    Hey Ladyhassa,

    Thanks for the feedback. I'll take a look at the mute filter list and make some changes.

    i think even two words when looked at together form a "bad word" (oooh) is blocked out? (well in sl at least)
    for example: Ptsh it's not even true. turns into Pt** **'s not even true. :|

    the way to change the world is by doing one act of kindness at a time, care to buy some cookies?

    Best thing to do is mail the devs about it. They're pretty flexible in this. I was muted several times for a word I won't repeat here. It was a normal, non offending word in my language (Dutch). Over here (Belgium), it was a word that is used very often in conversations. When I told them about that, they promptly removed that word from the auto mute filter.

    Now, I'm not saying they will do that in this perticular case, but it could be worth a shot. To me, it sounds pretty innocent. But, then again, English isn't my native tongue, so it could have another meaning I don't know about.

    Edit: lol, Sam already responded... See? They're flexible


    And for all doubters of my rockstar status:

    Creative cursing should be bannable too, IMO.

    I've seen players manipulate a muted word through different or omission of letters, but clearly mean that word. I've also had players use words that are otherwise not always malicious, but in context they are. These should be punishable as they are way worse than an occasional "poop" slip of the tongue, again, in my opinion.

    I remember one specific unnamed player calling people a certain feline name and replacing the 'u' with a 'v'. When confronted about getting reported, simply said that he's said it on countless occasions and hasn't gotten punished. He should be. Single case, but point is there.

    I have reported people for using misspelled cuss words, some very offensive. I would hope they are not allowed to do that.

    At one time gay was used for happy or joyfilled.. But today this word reflects a negative verbage for sexual orientation so i can understand the non ability to use this word. The fikter is somthing to try to capture foul, racial, and sexual comments. To better protect the players.

    Indeed.... I didnt know what a turd meant.
    It forced me to check the meaning since I didnt know why I was muted for saying saturday lol.
    Now I know...

    For the fun, in case you all didnt know, the new futur electric Audi car is called E-Tron.
    Etron in french means turd...
    All french speaking people are naturally making fun of this cars name.

    Sam, not to be vulgar or anything but this is serious. Can you add a word to the filter? It's a 3 letter word that starts with C and ends in M. As natural of a thing it is, it's pretty offensive to some ppl. Last night it got a little crazy in Forest Haven.

    Thanks.
