A S*****ist versus a Communist

Users who are viewing this thread

My question is if socialist is censored as so****ist, then “cial” is the phrase in question. Is cial a swear word in any language?
If not, "cial" part might have been misspelled as something that is on TW blacklist. "cial" seems to work fine in XDaron´s example unless Dejan has been a fast horse :smile:
 
Inappropriate behavior / flame baiting
The profanity filter is based on a list of words we deem unsuitable for a civil discussion - these words get replaced with stars (****) even when part of longer words - for example, "assist" used to be "***ist". We do, however, have a whitelist of words that we continuously improve by adding words that shouldn't be filtered. If you see any words filtered that shouldn't be filtered (f.e. "assist"), we would appreciate it if you sent them to me and we'll add them to the whitelist.
Here's an Idea.

-snipped-

Instead of dealing with hurt fee fees and people saying the word "ass" (*le GASP* such PROFANITY) perhaps you could... oh, I don't know... fix server crashing and stop pretending that your siege/TD games are not plagued by semi-frequent hackers.

Wassup is a censored word if you can change that it would be nice
 
This to me seems like an implementation problem. One should first separate the sentence in words, and then apply the filter to the individual words. Not look for a series of characters to block blindly and then apply a whitelist. Anyone has a good explanation for why it's done this way? It just seems like bad coding to me but maybe I am missing something.
 
No one's going to faint over the use of "ass" or "****" in the 2020s. Of course I see why this would have to be the case if by some odd chance the studio was targeting a particular insanely lucrative and insanely east asian audience that was by some odder chance VOLUNTARILY protected from western linguistic degeneracy by a PEOPLE'S government.
Edit: I hadn't read the comments on here before writing this but glad to see a close majority seeing through the utter nonsensicality of the situation. At least we haven't all lost our sense.
