A thread, asking devs to TIGHTEN the mute filter even more O.o

I had to check if this wasn't the 'be sarcastic to the person above you' thread... And I don't mean that in a bad way :)

but it kinda winds me up that people cant play the game without being offensive to others

No need to be sorry buddy. You're allowed to voice your opinion on the forum in a constructive way, which you did :)

Report them, you can't filter out every single "possible" curse word because people who really want to curse or use vulgarity will find ways to manipulate the word. The human brain is smart enough to put together words even if they aren't exactly what they seem, case in point :

True or not, you get the point :)

IMO, reporting these types of players should be enough to give them a ban. They clearly want to curse.

There's a gear description that says kick-a$$ flame job or something like that. ( for fiery leathers, or something like that...) Just like the bastard sword, get what I'm saying? (Hope they don't delete this comment) O.o

The other word for "butt" isn't only a bad word, it's a type of donkey :p

A bastard isn't a bad word either, but its use can be depicted as one.

IMO, filtering these words would start a "slippery slope", when do they stop? There are countless words that could be interpreted as inappropriate or malicious, it's the context that matters :)

In my opinion :)

And that's a better choice, ignore + report = better PL life.

Did I just say "something like that" twice? Shame on me; I need more of a vocabulary! >_<

thanks for the advice and im probably going to go for the reporting idea, because like u said some words are not meant to be swear words but the context in which they are used is offensive
