I lurk around, reading news and keeping an eye on things, every once and a while I'll make pertinent comments or deal with minor issues should the need arise.
They only censor stuff with many swear words and very bad language and stuff.
I have observed the young and after years of observation I have finally found out that "fuck you" is slang for "Hello good master, welcome to the tavern of the rising sun!", while "hey motherfucker" means "I sense a soul in search of wisdom!".
At least that's what I gathered from the frequency those words are used, the context, and the reaction of the conversation partner.
I guess that this is the reason why fuck and such words aren't censored. You need to use REALLY bad words in order for the automatic censorship algorithm to kick in.
Hehe, fun fact is that at our project we just did the same change (from Strength/Agility/Vitality/Energy to Attack and co.) independently from Blizzard for simplicity purposes. I was against this change at first, but since it seemed to make everything much easier to understand, we went for it in the end.
And now this random guy comes and tells us he doesn't understand it now. GRRRRR.
Finally finding about some of the bots that are flooding the users online - bytespider apparently is a huge offender here - ignores robots.txt and comes in from a ton of different IPs
Ghan has said he has fixed this. Monovertex please confirm this fix. This was only a problem with people that had signatures in the upper levels like not the special members but the respected members.
