    Unless I'm mistaken swearwords being used to share your feelings on skyblock is increasing. Its also being used a lot to bully/intimidate others.
    I think if you swear you should get kicked and receive a warning? If you swear a certain amount of times you get temp banned. - Young children are playing and a lot of parents aren't even keen on them talking in the chat, so swearwords shouldn't be there. The chat should be a nice friendly environment for all players.
    Also I think the plugin that automatically filters swearwords needs to filter the word

    Tell me what you think bellow :p

    P.S I know I swear sometimes but I have decided to stop. From now on you will never see me swearing in chat.

    Swearing is filtered, and if you evade the filter, then you get a kick and if you keep doing it, then I think (not too sure, mod correct me if I'm wrong) you get a temp ban.
    This is basically already on skyblock so I don't see much point in this thread sry xD

    We do kick for swearing, that is a rule. You are allowed to swear in a PM with a player if you're both okay with it

    And a player can report you if they aren't ok with it, and the reported player will receive a warning.

    Support. I think this will reduce people swearing and spamming in chat. Believe it or not, there were circumstances where people would swear and flood the chat with that swear. Its so annoying asf (opps lol).

    BUT....

    what about swearing in private chat? Will that change?

    everything you've mentioned is already enforced as far as i know, but putting in more rules just means people will be breaking more rules :^) Jess

    Support, it would at least stop me from swearing as much. I think what people have outlined above is correct. Stricter Rules

    What my mum used to say about this. Sometimes you cannot avoid your children hearing and seeing swearing. When it happens you just gotta tell them that is not an appropriate word.

    Majority of the swearing is censored. Some words will slip by. Players are punished for using such words but we cannot stop them from using them in the first place. The filter isn't perfect unfortunately.

    Completely agree with Krissy, I will try from now on the stop swearing and to let people know it is not an ok thing to do. If we all do this. I believe this issue can be resolved internally.

    Whilst I do support, swear words are already filtered and players avoiding the filter are kicked, or can be reported if a moderator is online. Maybe stricter rules would help reduce the use of swear words in chat.

    Agree. Please don't ban me but a couple of times I had bypassed the chat filter, but for saying gay. My parents told me never to use that particular word and I never used it (until middle school came around)

    Support. While skyblock already has a system to take care of cuss and swear words, it should be improved a bit more. I absolutely cannot stand when people cuss in chat, it's honestly pathetic

    My honest opinion here, so we're supposed to be a G rated server here so I tend to always kick for language or bypasses, as I do not feel it's the correct atmosphere for children. Some people do get annoyed for kicks because they're "expressing" their feelings, but really they should do that somewhere else as we have set rules here.
    Support.
