Seriously, why is "Buto" or "Puto" (Derp, my poor memory) need to be filtered....Srsly, this is BS, players can get banned for this...

A quick google search found me the answer.

Apparently the second word you stated is a derogatory term in Spanish, and is also used as a filler swear word, much like how English speakers will drop the f-bomb as a filler. Seeing as Three Rings has a large Spanish-speaking playerbase, this is not an oversight.

Meanwhile "Buto" is a dance of utter darkness.

gods ain't gonna help you, son.

I don't know if this thread is by the rules, we are avoiding the chat filter after all.
still, I don't understand why "verga" is censored. it's an italian author.

I LOVE the caps filter but I wish it would be slightly more lenient. Maybe allow 15 characters? (I think it's like 8 now)The thing is I use it more FOR EMPHASIS than just pure out spamming.

Verga is a spanish slang swear word for a male anatomy body part.
I'll give you a hint, its another name for a chicken/rooster.

The caps thing works on a ratio thiong I think, if you put AaAaAaAa AAA aaaaa it will let you as the ratio of capitals (A) to non-capitals (a and spaces) is slightly less than 50:50

Puto is delicious. Buto is well... Not all words mean the same in other languages.

On a slightly unrelated note

I was having a conversation about queer/LGBT+ stuff, where I found that 'gay' is blocked, which is stupid, since it isn't even a slur. 'Homo' is also blocked, and I can kinda see why, yet slurs like 'tranny' and 'shemale' aren't blocked.

Also, last time I checked (a.k.a. a week ago) s*x isn't blocked, for some odd reason.
