Recent changes in GTA Online moderation now censor words like “meth” and “cocaine” in chat…
…in a game where large portions of the gameplay are focused around selling meth and cocaine.
Is that game even any fun anymore? I stopped playing after the first year or so.
If you’re a fan of shenanigans, have some friends to play with, and know how to avoid the script kiddies, it can be quite fun.
I stopped playing too, it would be more fun if it wasn’t as grindy.
So Mike Tyson can’t say that stuff is messed up… Shame
I remember ye-olden days…
“Nice s
hoes!”“Let’s play again on Sa
turday!”“I can play as loud as I want in the ba
sement!”The scunthorpe problem always made me giggle
Dark Souls (2?) blocked “Knight”
The funny part is that they set up the detection for “hoe” wrong. “Ho” is the insult; “hoe” is a garden tool. Even jeopardy knows it.
I said “finish it” in Genshin chat and it censored it as “Fini** **”
Haha you play Genshin
Haha yeah

I really don’t think that this was necessary.
I guess Lemmites also struggle with deciphering sarcasm without their trusty tone indicators 🤔

Game I play sensors damn, so I have to remember to say dam. Forget constantly so I am getting into he habit of just typing shit fire instead. “Ah, shitfire” Doesn’t care to block that I guess
Genshin has China-level censoring, with some really bizarre words like ‘tank’ being filtered.
Hong Kong was also censored, haven’t checked recently tho as it could have been changed. Taiwan also censored
Fuck China
Chat censoring should be mostly on the user side with user controlled blacklists and whitelists, with moderator involvement mostly for circumventing the filters.
Don’t want to see “penis”? Put it on your own blacklist.

I want to see penis
Great cropping job
but thats a part of the joke
I guess I just don’t get it
It’s the screenshot equivalent of a TV show cutting to the next scene the moment a punchline lands — usually a stronger and more “taboo” punchline that followed up in the dramatic pause after a previous more light-hearted punchline.
It’s what they do on the other social medias, probably because they scan images for words nowadays?
Honestly what made me laugh.
Two best examples were:
-
Total War censoring the username Nasser to N***er
-
Gamefreak banning their own Pokemon (Cofagrigus) from online play unless you renamed it first.
My favorite is GTAO having a language filter thats impossible to turn off. The NPC’s will literally yell fuck you when you drive by them but YOU cant say fuck.
Dark souls censoring knight with k***ht
Elden Ring censors the word finger
Eden ring censored “Knight” to “K***ht” iirc
-
“It’s the D–k van D–e show! Starring D–k van D–e!”
animal crossing on ds censored town board messages client side so if you edited the word list in the rom to be blank you could use a flash cart, join someone else’s town, put whatever profanity you wanted, and they would see it in their town but wouldnt be able to swear in their own game or anyone else’s.
I was playing The Finals and apparently LMAO gets censored, it made me look like an asshole!
YouTube censoring a video that talks about a controversial video, but not the original video itself.
I fucking hate censorship -_-
I just made this account cuase My school account wouldnt work so I now have my own account, thus us vy far the best thing ive seen in a while
Either that’s genshin impact or honkai star rail or some other mihoyo game
The Hay’s code is coming back in the 21st century.
