Content is great, good job developers, glad I spent money on platinum. Just got beer can hat from one of the levels
The winter content is fine. Will there be a thread reference the draconian new language filter? Especially when you get muted for the word "crap"? In a PM? That's a little overboard, guys. Really. Especially since you can still swear as long as its not in English. That is stupid. Whoops! Another word you can't use. Please. I understand wanting to cut down on the language "for the children!", but neither crap nor stupid are particularly profane. Merde might be to some, but it can still be used. I have numerous foreign language dictionaries. Don't make me drag them out and start using Nahuautl or Blackfoot. Thank you.

The maps will go away in a month or so, but all of the loot will remain.
I just found out that they are closing the winter festival. It's totally not cool to take away content that the user had to pay real money for. I thought it was an expansion not a pay and play and then we take it away before u finish content pack. I'm super disappointed that I payed for it and won't be able to finish it. Cmon devs this game is the best thing out for a mobile phone don't take away content I had to pay actual cash for. That's not good business.
Lol you CAN say "stupid," just not "dumb." ...which is dumb, er, stupid!
Btw, are the holiday packs and vanity items temporary like Halloween or permanent? It should be clear, if it's not permanent.
Edit: and I was wondering if the muting/flagging would work in private games/conversations. I guess it is. Way overboard. I understand wanting to keep the game clean for kids, but isn't that what the censor's for?

We'll be tweaking the filters a bit. This remains game that many children play. Draconian is a strong word, but please realize that we will strongly protect our little corner of the world.
Well, I appreciate you wanting to clean things up. Generally, I don't use much in the way of off-color language. However, draconian is the word to use when you get a warning for, "When you finish the toy factory, you get like 4 different quest choices." That's a direct quote and I have a screen shot. I've looked and I can't see any letters that run together to form any naughty words. I've even tried anagramming it and no luck. And Les, it was for "stupid" that I got one warning. For some reason, I never use the word "dumb". Probably just as well now. The more profane four-letter words are pretty apparent. Any chance of a list of the less-apparent words so I don't have to experiment and risk another time-out? Heck? Shucks? Dadgummit?
And Devs? If "crap" is a naughty word, you'd better see about changing the description of the bird flame armor--I would assume "kick-***" would be naughty, too.

LOL! I hoped reading the optionals would be worth it, thanks!
I too already got warned a couple of times this afternoon for things that could not have possibly had anything offensive in them. For instance one of them was something like, "there's a quest for a new weapon but u have to finish the other quest first". This was after the update that relaxed the filter. I guess now we are going to constantly have to worry about what a (very imperfect) computer thinks about every single thing we type. :-/ Meanwhile people are now sitting in town testing the limits of the filter, daring each other to say things like "voodoo spoon", or discussing why something is censored and something else isn't and why. If anything, it's made things worse rather than better.
I am very much in favor of keeping the game safe for everyone, but I just don't see what problem this filter manages to solve that wasn't addressed by other mechanisms. We already have a chat filter that people can turn on so they never see the offensive words in the first place. (True, it doesn't work very well because of all the false positives - but that's exactly the problem that the new filter has too!) And it's extremely easy to report anyone who offends us, and also to ignore them and thereby mute them by much longer than 4 minutes. What does this filter do that those other measures don't? - and at the cost of interrupting all of of conversations several times a day with threats about being muted or banned.

Personally, I liked the way Halloween was done -- the map was open to all, but those who wanted the full experience had to pay with plat.
As it is, I'm trying to cut down on my PL time, so not sure I want to pay for a map that's temporary, without being able to take full advantage of it. Would have been nice to at least see the map, though. And maybe decide to pay for the full experience once I see it. Ah well. Even if I don't buy, looks like plenty of other will. Enjoy!
All of the Holiday themed loot drops, all of the new items purchased for Platinum, and all of the items you get by chance in the Holiday item packs are *Permanent.*
Only the "Winter Village" and its associated dungeons are temporary.
