What is the point of the profanity filter?

I checked, it’s was valid and the punishment was issued 15 hours after the message was sent. If you want details feel free to DM me :)

I may have been a bit to absolute in my statement, i’ll edit to make it more accurate. :P

Have you considered banning more cheaters instead of crying about what people say in chat?

We can ignore chat, we can’t ignore that basically every single naval battle has an aimbotter.

I’m not sure what happened to the corpo world for them to get so utterly obsessed with speech policing that they care about it more than they care about their own product.

Two different teams, Game Masters do not handle cheating reports nor cheating bans. Us doing our moderating doesn’t hinder the team that handles cheating from doing their moderating.

Yes, but you shouldn’t be doing this. It’s just $current_year political morality enforcement.

Why would a company waste money on that? Why are they not paying you to ban cheaters instead?

Certain sections of the game are rendered practically unplayable by cheating, zero percent of the game is affected in any way by losers in chat.

It’s all budget allocation…

For example, look at the lon guy at the start of the chat, he’s morbidly obsessed with “slurs”, but admits he doesn’t care about any other bad language. It’s political. For some reason these weirdos have managed to force the entire corporate world to fall for their game.

Basically everyone I know is daily annoyed by cheating in WT, but not a single person cares about anything in chat. If anything, I target people who talk shit in chat. XD

No, all politics are prohibited no matter which stance. It has nothing to do with the game and shouldn’t be discussed in it.

We’re volunteers, we don’t get paid (we do get some in game stuffs though, but nothing crazy).

No :)

Vigilantism is not encuraged and if you break the rules while doing so you will be punished the same as anyone else breaking the rules regardless of your intentions.

As for cheating; they are regularly banned, you can check the monthly Fair Play posts if you want more info, here is the most recent one from 5 days ago: ( Fair Play: September 2026 ) .

Break what rules?

The whole purpose of the game is to kill the enemy.

Don’t tell me Gaijin is paying you GE or premium account or something for doing a straight up job…

No idea why the boss didn’t adopt the chinaman ways of running their company where one person do five person’s work bro multiple jobs for single salary aka one man show. That way they can change new car every year to show off how successful they are, like when you have expensive car then you can start changing beautiful girlfriends like we change our underwear. Damn dream life bro

That is consistency bro. In a monkey’s paw way. Consistent at being inconsistent.

Having actual humans moderate in game chat while there’s a profanity filter is wild.

moderating a forum is not a job and getting in game items is definitely enough compensation for it.

A profanity filter can only handle known swear words. But how should it handle an offensive phrase that contains no profanities, but is offensive? Like “I hope you and your loved ones die in a terrible accident”?

Also, it’s easy to just change a letter or two of a profane word, and the filter will let it slip through, even if the meaning is very apparent and offensive to humans immediately.

AI is no where near up to the task… AI would create a million problems that would require a million staff members to fix…

Gaijin understands the need for Humans to be in control, since AI would just cause far too many problems… And we are from all over the world, so we know what to look out for and we understand the technicalities of how we communicate online and in different languages / words, and or things that just maybe lost in translation so to speak…

And we see no need for this discussion to continue, since Staff have answered many things already…
