I believe Gree has been a bit over ambitious when it comes to censoring the chats.

In current LTQ PVE, we had to kill a number of Witch Hags. I wrote in the guild chat that I had one Witch Hag left to kill, but Gree thought that Hag would be too offensive so they replaced it with ****. Obviously the word isn't worse than that they can use it themselves, but we are probably far too sensitive to be allowed it's use?:confused:

Another interesting word is the drink cocktail. If you tell someone that you're having a cocktail at the beach, you will get so incredibly starred.
"I'm having a cocktail at the beach" -> "I'm having a *****."
The word and the rest of the entire sentence will be starred off. Would Gree rather having us drink beer, wine or just GTs? :rolleyes:

Please share your censor stories.

I tried to discuss the next COK (conquest of kings) but instead I talked about getting ready for ****

It's l33t speak for a racial slur. I'll let you figure out which one.

Oh, man. I am so glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read this post.

I've googled and all, but I haven't got the slightest idea what that 600k would mean. I don't know if it's local to USA?

Sounds rather like the IT technician at my brother's school that blocked the word "anal", but that just resulted in that no one could search for "analysis" or similar words. Not too bright.

you cant not say dice either.... we were commenting about beating rivals and said "its a roll of the dice"
which came out "its a roll of the ****"

GREAT topic!

I want to see the list of forbidden words. I always love when I censor myself and still get starred out. For example, normally would replace a word that rhymes with "spit" with a word that rhymes with "wrap." But nope! This lead to a series of post trying to determine what would be censored. My guild mates were thrilled. :rolleyes:

I just found what 600k translates to. Never heard that racial slur before. Translator here (http://www.ypass.net/misc/haxor/toenglish.php)

Everything gets starred out when i speak... why oh why....

On topic: you wonder why the filter on guild chat where guild leaders have the power to boot ppl if they use offending language. On walls it can be another story.

Thanks for the translator on 600k. So obvious now, but had me scratching my head.

Also; poop will get ****, but poo is legit. 

Interesting how you can call someone a spick or a beaner and get away with it. Please note that Im not calling anyone anything.

also fun to see sensoring on enlish words only while it's a worldwide game.

But we have to be positive... there is sensoring and it might be implemented very bad... it's one thing that gree did implement which didn't give them extra revenue... applaus...

Cocker part of cocker spaniel is censored. As such, we now use "spaniel" in my guild as a catch all derogatory term for annoying players, guild freeloaders, etc.

My real name is censored: Gay. I find THAT offensive, especially when avatar names can be whatever someone wants them to be.

We started swearing in Finnish.

LMAO, love it. I found a new one. I was talking about a GREE-litch in the game and they censored the L-I-T-C-H part.

I find it crazy how much stuff gets censored in kingdom age and the world chat in war of nations is so filthy.
