For users 17+ I feel like it would be fair to alleviate a majority of the public chat restrictions. I can’t say poop :(
#17+ chat restrictions

For users 17+ I feel like it would be fair to alleviate a majority of the public...
Although I am in favor of the chat filter being audited to unban some of the stuff in what I'll call the red list, I do think that some terms like that shouldn't be allowed considering how easily that will be used inappropriately. Especially as it's basically a less blunt version of a swear word, people would just use that as a bypass
stable zodiac
I think light swears are fine
plain birch
I don't think they want any swears
Although extremely mild stuff I could understand being fine

H E double hockey sticks?
Considering how personal that is for some people, I don't see it being likely

Poop
plain birch
Yeah, I don't see that being used in any non inappropriate contexts

lol u underestimate gamers

I've been one for quite some time. I'm sure it's possible, but it's far more likely that people would just be inappropriate referring to that kind of thing

the game is rated E for everyone, so not much they ca do honestly. But discord exists

Why would we need to say poop in-game anyway?
Kids can make their account older than they really are and use these words negatively
Also, people can still use them wrongly even if they did lift the restrictions

I think the filter lsit should be audited but with minimal changes I think tis fine as it right now removing recitrctions would lead to to much abuse from players.
real atlas
we should be able to say poop
No we shouldnt to easily abusable
shadow girder
In what context would you actually use that word?
shadow girder
Wouldn't it be better to simply say you need a quick break or something?
Or be back in a few minutes
real atlas
and you cant jsut say you need to go use the washroom / restroom / bathroom?
civic magnet
why cant i say poop? it is literally harmless and beyond age-appropriate
you can say poop in roblox, and even abc mouse.. it seems ridiculous but im not actualy fighting to say the word poop lol im making the point that the chat filter is so ridiculous and out dated that adults cant say the word poop.
shadow girder
The thing is it's a very awkward word to say even without an age limit
Do you actually hear people IRL saying words like that

do i hear people irl say the word poop?
shadow girder
It's a word I would only use if I have a problem and I'm speaking with a doctor
civic magnet
well thats your use case, i do regularly use the word poop lol do you not think its crazy that you can get muted or banned or warned for trying to say POOP? along with other age apropriate words?
whilst in the same game people in the commons can pretend to be sl aves without any penalty? but i cant say i want to poop?

Agreed, some things shouldn’t be banned lol

there's an enemy called Hound of Heck.

There's an Azteca dungeon called Seven Stabs of the Knife Temple

I still feel that player names should have been long fixed, like there's no reason why Kai and Bo should be on the open chat only list
real atlas
I disagree weneed to keep the canned filters in place and names otherwise poeple would abuse it happens on preety much any other game that doesnt have it.

I'm a go read this 17+ chat restriction suggestion comments while I go 💩
Tbh, they right. You don't need to announce to people you need a poop in game (just in wizcord). Toilet is an allowable word I think.
Some words that are RED and banned are silly and should be revised though.
To name 1 as an example, as someone else mentioned "Groundhog"
shadow girder
Okay Groundhog shouldn't even be blacklisted in the first place
Even for Restricted Chat
plain birch
Phantasmania, Wobbegong, Croakula, Zand and Bunyip/Bunyip's are still open chat only, even though all of those are used in the names of areas and Wallaru spells
I know this has been brought up before, but I'd really appreciate a formal thread where we can make legitimate suggestions for changes for the filter, similar to how there was a bad names list for 2023's summer update where we mentioned inappropriate name combinations
Similarly, Malus, Rama-Krok and Didgeri-Dragon are also restricted to open chat only, even though they are actual names used in the game as enemies

You forget Earlicker, one of my favorite names from Avalon. It makes Museum farming just a little bit more exciting, though, wondering if somebody will accidentally get muted for saying it.

I've mentioned that example many times in other threads, but true

And yet, Selenopolis isn't in the white list either

@plain birch I think this may have been accidentally overlooked. As for all other mentions of in-game names, I'm sending in a request to Customer Support to ensure that they can get these names approved globally. (Hang tight Text Chatters!)
@shadow girder: I've taken note of this and will pass it along.
