In Skyblock, we have a 0% tolerance for inappropriate words. In a not so long ago event, I found out that some words can be spelt out properly by being spaced out. My suggestion is to block all inappropriate words registered in Skyblock (that will be blocked out with asterisks went put in chat) when spaced out.

For example: Let's say Boba was a bad word. The sentence typed would be: Boba smells. But when put in chat, it'd be **** smells (asterisks do not signify a bad word).

But in a thing I saw, it can be spelt like: B o b a smells. The bad word isn't covered. So the suggestion is to make it that all bad words spelt out should be covered in asterisks. Whatever words that Skyblock covers, should also be covered when spelt out like my example above.

Pros:

1. Will make these types of words invisible.
2. Would ensure a safe community.
3. Wouldn't expose younger people to such words.

I attached a following document for only staff to see, for specific reasons.

It may seem this isn't really necessary but it would be better for the community. Please leave feedback!

(Sorry if this doesn't make that much sense)

neutral, this would be a good addition but not especially required. some words that are perfectly fine might be turned to asterisks also. It would definitely be hard to implement.
Neutral leaning towards no support.

 

My suggestion would be words that are already registered in Skyblock to be covered should also be covered when spelt out. It is not really required but it'd ensure some more safety.

 

Maybe instead of covering them to just go ahead and censor it how it already is in general?

 

Sorry, that’s what I meant. By saying covering them, I was meaning to say censor. Thanks for the correction!

 

This would encourage people to abuse it. It's happened in the past on this server, and it will happen again, should this be implemented. The message should simply be deleted, and players told to not say such things. (as it already is)

I see no benefit. This would only harm, in my opinion.

 

I wasn’t aware that this was abused before. Also I’m not sure how it was and how it will be because if players currently don’t abuse swear words right now, not sure how they’ll abuse it if this is implemented. Thank you for the information and your feedback though!

 

I think the more that you try to deny something from someone, the more they will be inclined to do it.

Your intent is actually great, but I think it can be implemented in other ways than simply increasing the magnitude of censorship on the server

 

Based on what you said then, I don’t think this will be implemented so a staff can archive/lock this then. Bossgamer Athyrix (online when I tagged)
