My concern could still use a response

It is true the post got off topic. I appreciate that lock in that regard, but please answer the question or respond to the situation the a three-letter word starting in F, usually used in the United States as a slur against homosexual males, is not censored by the mature language filter in-game. It appears to work on the forums.

While other slurs and derogatory terms are censored, why is one commonly used IN GAME as an attack against one's masculinity not included in the censorship?

We do appreciate being made aware of the error and rest assured: we're looking into it.

While we agree it is something that should be blocked, we're not sure why it isn't, and are in the initial stages of investigation.

As I mentioned previously: we take harassment very seriously, so if you are experiencing in-game issues with another player using harassing or derogatory language towards you, please report them to a Game Master.

As this issue doesn't feel like it warrants further discussion, I'm going to go ahead and lock the thread.

If you have any further questions please email: [email protected]
