    Hello everybody! Mac here coming back to you with another post.

    I think all of use of noticed how much swearing occurs on the servers. This is really annoying and it can mislead the children that play on the servers.

    Example:
    Lets say a kid views a curse word (doesn't know what it means), and asks their parent what it means. The parent will get angry, and most likely never let him or her go on the servers.

    A lot of people would say players could get around a swearing filter, but if you can make the option of listing of words that are not allowed that can help. Also some players write periods in the middle of the curse word to bypass the filter. When making the list you can add all the words, people would use to bypass the system.

    And also when some one does curse they should get a private message stating some thing like this:

    So what do you think of this idea? Can it be helpful, or is it useless? Leave your thoughts down below.

    - Mac

    Blanking out words doesn't do much, because even though people don't see the actual words, the intent is still there. I think that it shouldn't send out the message at all if it has a swear word in it. Mild swear words are fine, in my opinion, but there are several which should not be used on our servers.

    Like when writing the f word, they place a period or anything in between the letters.

    I've seen a few servers that have a plugin that will change certain words to say something else.
    For example: someone says "lag", it becomes "eggplant".
