I know that there are languages/words that are censored in the lobby. Excuse my word, like the a**hole, becomes "###hole" instead of censoring them, why not having a note?

For example, you typed a foul word (not yet entered) then "Server" will appear.
Sorta like this:
Server: Inappropriate word entered. You wouldn't be able to use the chat for the next 5 minutes.

Because most of us in the game recognize the censored word itself, making some of us hurt our feelings. (I'm included) So as I stated above, that would be perfect.

Now for spam.
Are you sick and tired of the old spammers in lobby? Why not put a 3 message typed over and over again. if you had more than 3 continuous spams this will appear:
Server:3 continuous spams entered. You will not be able to use the lobby for the next 10 minutes.

Asking if the player typed a message even if he is banned for 10/5 minutes? There will be a warning from the server:
Server:You will be banned from the server in the next 1 hour.

I know some threads like these have been posted before. This is just some sort of reminder. :)

I don't know about this Bluz... I tend to use 'swears' a lot when I'm talking, but I don't use them in an offensive manner. It's all about context at the end of the day. If I was to go up to you and type "You're a silly person!", I imagine that you would get offended by that. But If I typed "Account traders are stupid!", you wouldn't because the insult wouldn't be directed at you.

If I was having a proper conversation with you in the chat, I would get really pissed off that I was being muted just for uttering the word "removed" in a non-offensive manner such as "The chat is extremely broken!".

I know you mean well and want to demonstrate a point but the forum is meant to be PG 13 so if language like this could not be used we would truly appreciate it. Thanks ~ ads126

I like on how you forgot to censor the word 'pissed'. ~ ス Xzyckon

they did something like this in supremacy1914

now the chat mods are called modonazis and it's not even worth using the chats because of constant banning and having to censor yourself

since they ban for mre than just curse words. but I can see where this is going.

I suppose I shouldn't care since I don't play supermechs but I thought I'd just share my experience of over-moderation.

So it's just an auto-moderator? Sounds good, and shouldn't be too hard for them to implement.

Yes.
