List of words changed by the Word Filter?
« on: February 27, 2009, 09:43:48 PM »
I had some trouble deciding where to put this topic. Although it it more of a "serious" question, I ultimately decided that the Funhouse was probably the best place for this because of what it could potentially turn into.

Is there a list out there of every word that is blocked by the Word Filter, as well as what it will become?

The reason I ask is that I have the Word Filter disabled, but I have noticed that more than just the usual "offensive" words are filtered out. For example, if you put an "M" and a "$" together, it will become "I am a terrible poaster". Since I won't know what my post will look like to those who use the Word Filter, I'd like to know what all of the blocked words are so I could avoid using them if I so choose.

I got rid of all the silliness when I took "gay" out of the filter.

Sorry if I'm a party pooper.

The swear filter in Xbox 360 games is absolutely hilarious. I learned many new insults by taking a look at some ini files from MK vs DC (trying to find the setting for the violence filter).
I think it says on the box, 'No Hispanics' " - Jeff Green of EA

That's good to know, now I don't have to worry about it.

I'd still like a list of all of the blocked words though. If that isn't possible, then I'll just assume every word that's banned on GameFAQs isn't acceptable here.

Because users have the ability to turn the filter on and off, you are free to speak how you see fit.

That said, racial slurs and anything that can be considered insulting another individual is off limits.


Also, if a word is said by someone else that makes you uncomfortable, and it is not filtered out when you have the filter turned on, send me a PM and I can add it.

I just wanted to know which words were blocked because I won't be able to see which words will have been starred out/changed in my posts. However, if all of the "non-offensive" words have been removed then I doubt I'll be using anything that's blocked by the word filter.

If a word is said by someone else that makes you uncomfortable, and it is not filtered out when you have the filter turned on, send me a PM and I can add it.
The word "maxi" makes me uncomfortable, but I suppose it's too late to block that... :-\

Can we filter all of the above words to be replaced with mildly orgasmic?

It used to be that really obnoxious phrases used by bad posters were ghetto-filtered by treating them like emotes (this was my doing :>). Cool posters in the know could bypass it just by turning smilies off. It really less censorship than a funny prank on shitty posters, and when they hurfed up some whiny post about how we were internet nazis, it only became funnier and I wholly endorse keeping this system if at all possible.
