yeah things can be covered by the policy, but that never stops it from happening.
Yeah the filter is too strict. Its okay to voice your opinion about that. But you seem to be making a much bigger deal about it than needed. Theyve been aware of this and acknowledged this issue before
Many filters Iāve seen in action over the years have issues. LEās filter seems to be the worst I have encountered so far, with many false positives.
Some filters use words from a variety of languages and check if the sequence is part of a word. Maybe Asmongold triggers āmongoā, a not so nice word to describe people with down-syndrome in Germany.
Who knows, maybe itās a bad AI checking all messages, and sometimes it decides that a message is inappropriate, other times it isnāt
the censorship is weird, once i typed āon the internet, no one know youāre a duck sized horse riding a horse sized duckā (it was a joke related to people pretending to be AI in the offline chat when someone asked if we were real players) , and for some reason it was censored
i think the censored part was āduck sizedā
To be fair, his name does contain two different versions of a term that has historically been used as an offensive, sometimes racist pejorative.
Letās not turn that into a debate about the validity/merits of blocking those terms. Iām just making an observation on how it could make sense for his name to get filtered.
DaActualFuq? I mean, given the, wet paper mache skin people have these days, this doesnāt surprise me. But what racist pejorative(s) exist, that I have missed out on using? I must add them to my Offend the Easily Offended toolboxā¦
Yeah thatās exactly the problem, it is now so tightly set that having a conversation sometimes becomes difficult. I fully understand we canāt have players screeching the N word in chat, but right now it just defeats itās purpose.
Itās also just frustrating, want to say something non offensive, get blocked
Reword it hoping to say what you wanted to say, still gets blocked.
Well fuck it then Iāll keep my mouth shut.
Itās funny you can swear in the fucking forum all fucking day long untill you are fucking tired of the shit you see herer in this clusterfuck of threads but the ingame chat is instantly censoring people who even think about writing a word.
Itās kind of funny. I understand some people dilike swearing in general but I donāt give a fuck.
(Just making an overexaggerated example here⦠satire you know?)
You have tried to bring up dunning kruger effect on the topic why PoE attracts elitism, my boi can you see the irony in your behaviour or will you go full murican way and become a master of contradictions?xD
Yeah, i think if the profanity filter is toggled off, maybe the bot detection should be off as well. or tone it way down. I have seen the message various time over simple statements and i was like, why?
