Has Anyone Tried To Type This Word In Game?

"Japanese", no way u can see the whole word with censor set to "on".

I think 99% of people in AL will find the censoring mechanism very amusing.

Maybe the filter finds it racist?

Even typing "Jap" would not work. It should seem to suggest a form of an insult..

Chill. The devs arent racist or anything probs a filter mistake - and Im 99% sure the devs DONT write each filter word (ridiculously long) so may be a mistake. Pm a dev to fix it or write to support.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jap

Jap is an English abbreviation of the word "Japanese." Today it is generally regarded as an ethnic slur among Japanese minority populations in other countries, although English-speaking countries differ in the degree to which they consider the term offensive. In the United States, Japanese Americans have come to find the term controversial or offensive, even when used as an abbreviation.[1] In the past, Jap was not considered primarily offensive; however, during and after the events of World War II, the term became derogatory.[2]

"Jap" is bad, therefore "Japanese" is filtered. makes sense.
I don't really see why people would be insulted by just a shorter version of their name/culture name.
It's called a nickname; easier to type or say.
