The first name is the first name of one of my EE profs. Great guy, really knowledeable and very helpful whenever I asked him for help outside of class.
Censoring one of the most common names in the world is dumb at best, illegally racist at worst. Its like censoring Tim... --- Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. - Emerson |

The 2nd is censored due to German law iirc. First one probably due to recent events.
Personally I think the filter should just go, and CRC can just lay the smack down more often.

i speak english so maybe there is the other languages in this world where **** is a bad word. of has meaning about your mother or something but if not what the hell is wrong with the word ****?
just curious CCP plz don't ban me
Why 'damn' was ever been a bad word and the ship Damnation was censored too on these forums before was beyond me anyway. Now it got fixed at least. Sorry, in my country I can use that word as often as I like and probably 99% of our citizens won't ever be shocked !
I think it's only extremely shocking for some religious hard-liners in certain countries, probably the same type of people, who believe in intelligent-design and such. But if they have some problem in their head, why should it be mine, too ?

Edited by: Thaneal Swiftbird on 09/01/2007 06:31:53 This is hilarious and by the way utterly nonsense. There is no law in Germany or Austria forbidding the name H-i-t-l-e-r. Its a not so uncommon last name in Austria. Would be like banning "Blair" or "Bush". We have laws regarding the use of fascist symbols, but neither the party¦s name, nor the names of any of its leading criminals have ever been forbidden.
Besides that, last time I tried I was not allowed to write Sauer***** (S-a-u-e-r-k-r-a-u-t) which is just very very common food around here. I know that "*****¦s" is sometimes used as a racist term for germans. But heck, if I start to call the yankees burgers, are you going to censor that as well?
Please do me a favour and work on that filter. I produce my own Sauer***** and I demand the right to speak about it!  
With best regards
Thaneal Swiftbird
Edit, funny I am allowed to say yankee as much as I like. Thats no more or less offending then k-r-a-u-t, which essentially just means "cabbage".

And as for the "who says" part - its ccp. The boards are teen rated and they are also a private board. They decide what is suitable. But they have listened to people in the past regarding this. CCP are far from unreasonable. :)
Bloody hell!
..sorry devs/moderators but if your filter passes it...
The problem is that swearing is a very cultural phenomena. I can misspell twit by changing the vowel and in the UK it's treated as pretty much the same thing. Probably heard in classrooms everywhere and ignored by teachers. Say the same word in an Amercan classroom and you'll get a very different response.
I've known worse filters though. The one for E&B ignored spaces so it actually encouraged people to work out what the rude word was and it ended up educating people.
Type the phrase "That's it watch out" and it appeared as "That's i*****ch out". Very educational :)

I wonder how hard it would be to make the filter something that you could turn off on your control panel? It would defult to on, but when you loged in you could change a setting to make all the words come up.
Some people (me) dont use the words like s*** and f*** as profanity but as a way to increase the emphasis of a statement. It is not uncommon for me to say something like "f***ing god damit pice of s***" when I get really mad at something. -------------------------------------------------- EvE is a sand box.
