Can i disable the 'potentially offensive message' nonsense?

Do I need to pull out Coreiel’s quote on the subject again, about how the profanity filter isn’t permission to swear?

Oh give me a break. This is Blizzard’s house, and they determined what the level of decorum is going to be.

Just like when you go into an office building there’s usually a level of politeness expected.

There’s no grandois plan of censorship, you can be as rude and uncouth as you want in your own spaces.

Find the private message settings and change them. A feature was added in DF to block messages that might be from people you don’t know with profanity.

Ya, that was before bigots weaponized tolerance and people have realized we dont need to put up with people breaking the social contract (the RL one)

I’m sorry a small warning is triggering you so much you had to run to the forums about it.

your just making them madder and madder.

woah there buddy. calm down. youre not thinking straight.
dunno why your getting upset over something you can just turn off.

Na it’s not permission to swear. I don’t swear in game. It’s you choosing to see words then getting mad you saw them and reporting them when you could of just left the filter on. But ya we all know you are the type who runs outta flags everyday.

i have it set to censor no one. if someone wants to cuss at me that is their right far as i am concerned.

i am still having ‘potentially offensive messages’ blocked. which, hilariously ironically, offends me.

Free speech doesnt apply to a private platform.

If you dont like the rules in this private, paid, club you can leave.

Hello gamers of various natures. I’m here to provide you with a solution. Open the Game Menu, click on Options, click on Social (under Gameplay), and then set the Censor Messages option to “No one”.

And then, it will probably still censor messages when it feels like because I’m pretty sure I already had this option set to “No one” but still get messages censored somehow.

Apparently my nonsensical butt is the filter limit, so go full Cheshire Cat.

If thought processes were meant to be straight…mine would be a Mobius pretzel…

Might be a bug. I’d exit the game, delete your cache folder and try again. Maybe try a full UI reset real quick too.

If it persists and your settings are correct, then try the CS forum to see if they have any suggestions.

welp, apparently my account has been flagged and if i am ‘deemed offensive’ i will be ‘silenced’ on the forums. so this might be my last post. sigh. i miss the internet, and blizzard for that matter, of 15 years ago. before stupid was allowed to take over every public space.

i’d rather be right than liked. if more people thought that way this species might have had a chance.

No. One post in here was hidden. Mods will look at it and probably just delete it without sanctioning you. But be mindful of the CoC.

that was the text of the message i got.

I am rated R for reality warping…
