Thread: Spam and Cursing

    If you don't want your children around this game for the cursing, add the site to your block list.

    If you want to ask why there's cursing, think about how this is a global game and not all cultures define words as curses.

    IMHO, it's better to teach your children the proper usage of something, than to censor them of it all together -- forcing them to learn from who knows where. /sigh

    Also, for some reason only the Dev's know, the word "girl" is filtered out.
    "http" is filtered out too. Wierd lol.

    Yeah. I tried posting a link to the FAQ for all the beginners.

    People keep talking about filters, but in the server I play in (6), it doesn't seem to filter ANY words. People aren't replacing letters with symbols and all the stuff people normally do to get around them. If you don't want to see the cursing, switch it to Alliance or something, or tell them to stop cursing. I've whispered someone about it, and they stop cursing.
