STS Staff can u please explain why i've been muted after saying this:
Portuguese from Portugal
"Dei o Alejandro a um puto da Guild, disse-me obrigado umas 20 vezes, lol =P"
Translation:
"I gave Alejandro to a kid from our Guild, said thank you 20 times, lol =P"
Why? Because of the "Puto"? This word in brazilian Portuguese has a diferente meaning from the Portugal Portuguese, In Portugal "Puto" is a kid.
I would like to know what trigered the "mute", anyone?
Thanks in advance.

I've been muted once in a while when I speak Japanese in-game :/ and I never intend to swear or anything lol.
Like "****e"
"Sou ****e ne?"
"can you do that way?"
^_^ lolz
Or "****tarane" I can't help it! Lol

I just don't know how this works
It said " Your chat chat has been muted, Further mutes may result in being banned". lolol
I don't want to be banned because i said "kid" in my own language lol

Probably a localization issue 'cause I'm pretty sure puto isn't too nice a word in espanol. I wouldn't worry about the mute but I would be surprised if sts could filter for variable meanings in different languages.

But StS isn't really trying to ban people on purpose, I see plenty of people in game speak English and add one word in another language just to call people names, so that's probably what it was. But I do see where you're coming from.

I tried to PM my friend "Pluto" but it came out "Puto"
I often get mutes too cuz of the same word u got muted for.
FOr example.
On croatian : '' 5 puta ''
on english: ''5 times ''
And just cuz of that I got banned more than 20 times in my game time
For me thats ridicules. 30 days back I didnt even know what puta means and I had to google it to find out. And its nit even and english word its on spanish. If you ask me : thats some dirty mind by sts lol. Same as they see word tit in every 2nd word of ours
This game profanity detector is really bad. Even the word 'japan' is redacted wtf?

Guess I'm not alone in this issue;)
It would be usefull to know what languages is the mute based on.
Dev please make the list of redacted word and banned word. It will be fun to read.
And wth 'Jap' means? Is that even a word?

It's an insult against Japanese people, comparable with the "N-Word".

WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?
The filter is the worst ingame. If it remotely contains a few letters from that word its ******.

What ''Chuck''?
Yeah it's an insult against who say it, not Chuck Norris.
Chuck Norris can one shot water directly from a tap.

You guys can uncheck the filter in the options in case some of you didnt know.

Hello,
My opinion on this is that it simply is not going to happen. Why? The concept: For the Greater Good.
Simply put, most people who will use that word will use it for its offensive purposes. Therefore, to avoid that issue, they ban the word. Also, remember, even STS has legalities/ToS's of their own to follow. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe an adequate chat filter is a part of that.
Hope this helps,
