Filter Warnings

[enderland]

Hello,

Another question, what exactly is defined as filter evasion? I know that recently a large number of wars were removed for it, which the declaration reason I will not repeat here since it was deemed warn worthy already, but it was definitely not what I would have considered filter evasion.

So I ask I guess - are these types of war declarations acceptable?

"wtf why not?"

"oh glorious tech!! << ghey "

"WAPA YA BASS" x5 or so

"wtf ined!"

"Poland is the shizz yo!"

"eeeh wtf not?"

"Lmfao"

"u just got staggerd mofo"

etc, are just some examples I happened to see browing through the war pages in TE/S.

Are all those wars eligible for removal, for violation of filters (since it is quite clear what they are trying to say in most cases)? I honestly was surprised to get the ingame warn in the first place for the declarations I made and would like to clarify what is considered filter violation.

Many thanks

Good God no. At least in my opinion. I say you should report these.

This is being looked into.

What you are referring to are popular internet memes where the abbreviation has become an accepted word in and of itself.

The difference with the TE warns is that a filtered 4 letter word was used, first letter substituted with the letter 'C' so it would still pronounce the same, and used in a context where only a filtered 4 letter word would be used. There's really not a better example of filter evasion, this fits the definition spot-on, and we've warned for it for years now. The decision is final, thanks.
