ALL POSTSRemoving the Bad Word Filter on Chat
<p>So as many of you know there is a filter on chat that will relay a message if you have said one of many bad words. Well, this feature is rather inconsistent as it only has a few words that it filters and its also pretty annoying sometimes because it will pop up without you even knowing why. Many users have complained about it before so I think we may as well just have a vote on ridding chat of this feature.
</p><p>NOTE: This filter is NOT to be confused with the blocked words feature. Blocked words will still be a thing if this is removed. If you would like to know what this feature being discussed is, simply type "omfg" into chat and a prompt will come up. That is the feature I am talking about and voting on.

<p>A. I think if someone wants to say a bad word that's against the rules they will anyways. Yeah it could help in the event you accidentally make a typo or something, but in that case you should just correct it and have a good laugh about it.

<p>A, it's a hassle for mobile users to figure out what word was said.
