Name Filter

[max2k106]

I know that this idea has been suggsted before (by me) but im just trying to introduce it again. Some clan members and I were discussing this swear filter and one of them was playing a grey called ilfagila or something. The name had F A G in a row so when the person typed in /stat ilfagila, they got kicked. I think this is unfair to all players of TAO and that the swear filter should also be applicable to the account names. People could take advantage of this and use it to raise their rating easily. Please consider this and try to correct it.

Yes, I agree. There are other players that have a name like BusExpert or CoolnessExpert. They have sEx in their name, and many people won't catch that. Its becoming an issue.

I hate to say it...but I agree with you max. :D

agreed, i've had to worry about that every time i stat someone now.

nasty trick.... will something be done about it?

[BoBo The Fool]

the admin's official response is: "be careful"

so no, nothing's gonna be done about it. Pretty lame if you ask me.

how about this? we ban anyone who posts in all caps?

devil the swear filter will no be reomved, end of discussion (believe me we've been through this)


i agree however that it needs to be applied to the names, maybe not immediatly, but if after the next update the filter were there on names i think we would all breath a little easier


and lastly this should be in suggestions max ;)
