I really have no idea what to call this, but basically the Moderation on the VC thing is HORRIBLE. As an example: there are animals in the game, like monkeys. So I went into a Public Lobby just hanging out and doing my own thing, until I came across a quite literal Monkey, cuz he was wearing that Animal. He also had the color black. So when I did not know what to call him at first, I just said "Hey, black monkey". And quite literally 5 seconds later I got muted for 24 hours. The reason was "Racism". Like bruh. But this was like not even the first time I got muted for hours. The System actually just sucks and please just fix it or at least do not mute people hours when they said 1 wrong thing. Like adding warnings would be pretty decent, instead of instantly muting someone, so the game is not fun. Like its just so boring when you can not talk to others. No hate tho, this is actually a pretty cool thing to stop people from saying slurs, but sometimes it is either just not working or it just gives you a whole 24 hours mute. So my feedback, add warnings to the VC Detection System or just remove it completely maybe.

I play Animal Company almost every day, and yeah, I do curse sometimes — but never in a toxic way, just for fun. I might get mad, but I’m never actually mean to people. The only time I ever got muted was for 5 minutes when someone nearby said the N-word and it accidentally got picked up by my mic. It gave me a warning the first time too, but since then, I’ve had zero issues.
Honestly, I think most of the problems with the report/mute system come from the players, not the system itself. People don’t always realize when they’re being rude, or they troll their friends thinking it’s harmless — but the system still picks it up. It’s not perfect, but I’ve been reported a bunch of times (usually by kids who think swearing = ban), and I’ve never been muted or banned for that. So I really think the system is more fair than people say.
Yeah, it might bug out sometimes, but that’s rare. If you’re just careful with what you say, especially avoiding anything that might sound like slurs or insults — even as a joke — you’re fine. And honestly, being mean to your own friends is still being mean. The system can’t read your intentions — only your words. So if you get punished, it’s probably something you said, not just a random bug.
