Sorry if this post in wrong spot but i had to ask this question... WHAT THE WHAT!?! why was i banned in chat today only talked to 2 people and there is nothing offensive and no bad words. i never use cuss words, offensive slurs and always polite to everyone.. so what gives here are the screen pics of chat tell me what did i do that caused a ban?

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.

rofl... honestly look at the pictures in my very first post i got banned for saying "sup bro... hu been?" wtw there isn't any offensive words in that even by part.. cant even make a bad word or slur with those letters. no a dev needs to tell me why some over zealous filter decided to push the mute button

It's when you say something like "flush it" or "bit it". No big deal, happens to all of us.

You probably have said a combo of words which made up to a bad word.Now the problem is,when you get muted after few censored words,the last word for which you get muted does not show off,instead that message is shown.So you actually wrote something like "got it" and then that message came.But you think you didnt said anything wrong.

Dude it's just a 5 minute mute. I kinda enjoyed getting muted, gave me a reason to ignore people.
