animal crossing on ds censored town board messages client side so if you edited the word list in the rom to be blank you could use a flash cart, join someone else's town, put whatever profanity you wanted, and they would see it in their town but wouldnt be able to swear in their own game or anyone else's.
Two best examples were:
-
Total War censoring the username Nasser to N***er
-
Gamefreak banning their own Pokemon (Cofagrigus) from online play unless you renamed it first.
-
I'm just glad I don't live in Scunthorpe.
Same with penistone
I just made this account cuase My school account wouldnt work so I now have my own account, thus us vy far the best thing ive seen in a while
The Hay's code is coming back in the 21st century.
Real Og's time their kisses
Have they censored the word "butter" yet?
I said "finish it" in Genshin chat and it censored it as "Fini** **"
Recent changes in GTA Online moderation now censor words like "meth" and "cocaine" in chat...
...in a game where large portions of the gameplay are focused around selling meth and cocaine.
So Mike Tyson can't say that stuff is messed up... Shame
Is that game even any fun anymore? I stopped playing after the first year or so.
I stopped playing too, it would be more fun if it wasn't as grindy.
From what I've seen the real fun is on the private FiveM servers
If you're a fan of shenanigans, have some friends to play with, and know how to avoid the script kiddies, it can be quite fun.
Genshin has China-level censoring, with some really bizarre words like 'tank' being filtered.
I wonder why
Hong Kong was also censored, haven't checked recently tho as it could have been changed. Taiwan also censored
Fuck China
I remember ye-olden days...
"Nice s
hoes!""Let's play again on Sa
turday!""I can play as loud as I want in the ba
sement!"The funny part is that they set up the detection for "hoe" wrong. "Ho" is the insult; "hoe" is a garden tool. Even jeopardy knows it.
RuneScape originally replaced censored words with "cabbage" so a rude message may read "cabbage off newb!" And honestly I feel like that's the best way to implement a child friendly censor
The thrive community forums did it with the word belgium, inspired by the work of Douglas Adams
The scunthorpe problem always made me giggle
Chat censoring should be mostly on the user side with user controlled blacklists and whitelists, with moderator involvement mostly for circumventing the filters.
Don't want to see "penis"? Put it on your own blacklist.
But then you have to see penis while writing penis on the blacklist!
But I do wholeheartedly agree. Censorship should be opt-in, and no one should be bowing to government censorship.
True, could be a default list that you remove them from. What a s*** storm. *long click and select unsensor once, unsensor all, or review blacklist.
That way if people want to be sheltered they can never have to see it, and I can unblacklis> t them all at once, and the people afraid of the term moist can make sure they protect themselves via their list
I want to see penis
Ive been downvoted to hell and back for saying that on FFXIVs reddit back in the day
They provide a literal toggle for you to bleep swear words out, yet you can get in trouble for using "fuck" in a way someone can perceive as insulting (which in some cases means using it at all)
It should be fucking illegal to penalize someone by restricting access to paid content like a video game because someone else refused to use features built into that game
Harassment and bypass? Fair game to get someone in trouble, though
This game is ESRB teens
“Online interactions not rated by the ESRB”
Damn, someone should go back and tell my teen self that bad words aren't allowed.
I am a fucking disgrace.
My favorite is when characters in the game use profanity but trying to use the same profanity in chat gets censored
I remember when playing roblox a couple years ago, they would censor almost every single romanian word and every single number
Its not even that romanian roblox players are rare, every time i managed to write something in romanian, someone would respond in romanian
Black K***ht, of Dark Souls
Dark Souls' implementation is something special. Censors your name based on the language settings you have in place at the time, voice-over dialogue remains in English. So change your system language to either another language you know, or play it a few times so you know what things are, and then put the most offensive shit in as your character name you like.
"It's the D--k van D--e show! Starring D--k van D--e!"
I was playing The Finals and apparently LMAO gets censored, it made me look like an asshole!
Did the Finals finally get text chat? I remember getting annoyed that I couldn't yell at my teammates when they played like morons.
YouTube censoring a video that talks about a controversial video, but not the original video itself.
Either that's genshin impact or honkai star rail or some other mihoyo game
Genshin
I fucking hate censorship -_-
Was the word retarded? It was retarded, wasn't it? I'm a full on retard myself so I have a pass.
Probably "stupid." Hence the weird spelling
Can you not?
Can you not?
