Had a real karen in my arena, took a word wrong then bailed and was wrong.

During the match I said stop pussyfooting around.  The person was like don't say p***y.  Even merriam webster dictionary states: *·​foot | \ ˈpu̇-sē-ˌfu̇t  \ pussyfooted; pussyfooting; pussyfoot...

@Ev3rM0r3 Fyi naming and shaming isnt allowed on the forums. Also, you could still get in trouble for what you said.

    I removed the naming of the person, but no what I said has never and will never be a derogatory word.  It's not more then said lazy.

      @Ev3rM0r3 Hayhor is right, you could still get in trouble because it contains the word ‘puss.’. It’s just like Emily Dic...ens or words containing a word used derogatory or as profanity.

      If we word “noob” or “newb” can get you banned cause it’s being detected by a bot, you don’t think pussyfooting will get you banned? xD

        @Koochi-Q I have to be really careful when people ask me where I'm from (Scunthorpe).

      @Ev3rM0r3 It contains a certain word that the auto detection could use and result in a ban. Keep using it and see what happens.

    @hayhor Why?  There is *nothing* wrong with what he said.  Not a thing.\

    If people are getting banned for this the problem lies with how the bans are applied and *THAT'S* the problem.

    As a Computer Science University Academic type who literally studies the technologies used behind these types of things, there is no excuse.  None.

      @RockDokRock You can call it whatever you want. I wouldn't mess with it myself.

        If you all played COD back in the day, you know exactly what I'm talking about, and we all turned out just fine.

        This cancel culture fad is getting a little ridiculous, you can't even curse without catching a ban anymore.

      @RockDokRock The bans are carried out by bots/AI. This has been stated and verified. This is why ppl get randomly banned (on stream and off) for absolutely nothing.

      In case of japanese ppl, nigero means run, but what does the AI/bot see? The word without an ‘o’. Many japanese got banned for this and went to reddit. You can ask @Cheese9Man about it as well.

      Same thing here. If a certain word is contained within a bigger word and someone wants to grief you, he can send it as ‘evidence’ of profanity or hate speech. A non-human will likely evaluate it and if it’s not a good one so to speak, bam, ban, bye and then we all know how difficult it is to get your account back, even with evidence xD.

      Hayhor knows that what he said isn’t bad, he was alluding to the fact that you can still get banned for it tho

        @Koochi-Q Wait, are you saying if you type a certain African country's name in game you'll get banned? Bruh, that is some degree of next level wackiness, if that's true.
