[2021] Pointless whinging thread about swearing filters

Hey there,

The word filter comes by default with the forum software we’re using, with a couple extra words thrown in there to deter some ne’erdowells. We prefer to keep it on because the forums, we’d like to believe, are a more civilized place than the Exiled Lands. It may be frustrating when it catches some silly words here and there. But as any communications place used by many players, there’s an expectation of some basic level of politeness, y’know.

Swear words are great, and I love to use them when casually talking with friends and, dare I say, even to marketing. But trust me, expletives should not be needed to convey a point.
