Language Filters

Yeah I really hate it when ****** and ************* and ********** and **** are censored ;)

I would assume it's to protect the children (above age 13) who play this game.

The funny thing is that when a guild member is typing out something completely innocent and a word gets censored, the first thing I do is go down a mental list of the most vulgar words I can think of to try to figure out what they're saying.

I found it odd that I couldn't say in the chat that a certain character stat (I believe it was Anakin's crit chance back when he was good) was modded to a number higher than 68, but lower than 70. I checked recently, and it still stars that out. I'm speechless how ridiculous the filter is. It's just a number. Some kid will have no clue what that means, but will go do an internet search to figure out why it's blocked.

On the other hand the filter has stopped chopping up the word assist. So we can actually discuss all the characters that have those type attacks in the chat. So that's an improvement.

As a little aside, if you're trying to say something perfectly legit, and the silly, useless, overly protective, tyrannical, freedom-hating chat filter chops it up, then just put spaces between the letters. It can still be worked around.

No skill name should ever be censored.

Also if you censor chat surely you should censor player names. Someone in the top 20 of my shard when I started went by the name fucking bastard.

I know that will censor out but I just want to give the player name.

Is it just me or is that insane.

Don't forget Slave 1. The ship is in game, come on!

Best part is they give us bobas ship and name it but we can’t type it in chat.

“Basement” is also censored. I would never have even bothered to disassemble that word if it didn’t become a bunch of asterisks.

Lol can't say basement

Moved to proper feedback channel. I understand the sentiment. Not sure they'll lift any of it, but good to know there's more folks noticing strange words that made the star (***) list.
