Scunthorpe Problem	comment	We all know automatic profanity filters on message boards and elsewhere on the Internet can be ridiculously and unimaginatively strict. But the problem is much worse: Sometimes, it sees swearwords inside other words. Thus, you can get hilarious Malapropers that will surely make you "sblackperson" — like "hecko" instead of "hello", or "teasfecesn" instead of "teaspoon" — or else you get results like "cl*" instead of "class", ironically making those words more profane, not less (uming, of course, that the filter doesn't outright censor the whole message and automatically ban you from the board). This is known as the Scunthorpe Problem, after an incident in 1996 when AOL's rather simple-minded dirty-word filter prevented residents of several English towns and counties — among them Scunthorpe, Penistone, Lightwater and Middlesex — from creating accounts with AOL because it matched strings within the town names to "banned" words. Since it also checked the town names against the postal codes, users from these towns could not get around it by entering modified versions of the names — they were darned if they did, darned if they didn't. The ubiquity of the trope suggests that the profanity filter industry employs a lot of very lazy programmers. Read this to see what they likely have to wrestle with. And of course when anyone reads some bizarrely censored text, they are absolutely going to assume that you swore like a drunken sailor at them, with either terrible or hilarious results. If this gets too bad, it might lead to Bleep*-dammit! While most filters will remove offending words, a few have attempted to replace the words with less offensive alternatives, resulting in a rare variant of this trope known as the "clbuttic mistake". Examples include "buttembly", "consbreastution", "loveual harbuttment", and "buttbuttination". Compare Censored for Comedy. See also The Problem with Pen Island. If this is invoked for humor, the mods and admins may be having Fun with Autocensors. May overlap with Have a Gay Old Time. See also Heh Heh, You Said "X". For any actual problems with Scunthorpe, see Place Worse Than Death.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_10c71f4	comment	Wizard101 has three levels of chat. Menu chat which allows play to only say things from a list of phrases. Open chat allows all words except ones on a small list of obvious curse words. But the fun comes in on text chat. Text chat players cannot say or see any word not from a very large list of words, this list does not include any numbers except "one" but it does include order numbers so players often refer to needing to beat "fifth more enemies." For a while players took advantage of this by swearing using capital letters (ex. Go to HELLo) until Kingsisle finally stopped allowing capitalizing letters. At one point they had to rename an NPC from "Ahn Fu" to "Ahn Nao" because his last name needed to be filtered from chat.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_13998e73	comment	MapleStory has an enthusiastic filter that not only ignores spaces, but also other punctuation. It can even drag your username into it, meaning that if it ends in "t" and the first word in your message is "It", it thinks you're trying to say "tit". Despite this, it doesn't catch replacement letters, meaning you can say "t1t" just fine. Among its weirder blocks are "sperm" (meaning you can't say "whisper me" in reference to the "whisper" chat function), "ass" (when there's an assassin character class), "Christ" (which affected usernames like "Christopher" or "Christina"), and "blow" (which is included in the names of several skills). MapleSEA adds the string "cb" (an obscure and rude initialism in Singlish), meaning you can't talk about the "Angelic Buster" or "Angelic Blessing". Most infuriatingly, if you trigger the filter, it brings up a pop-up that admonishes you for swearing, and you can't control your character until you close it — which can be fatal in higher-level areas.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_1b56abaa	comment	Champions Online has a particularly bad filter. Not only does it block out words that aren't swears, but it doesn't recognize the space between words, so you end up with really bizarre cases of censorship such as: Not letting you use the fragment "hero in" or the word "heroine" in your biography because it spells "heroin". In a game that's about superheroes. The language filter censors "puta", because it is a rude Spanish word for prostitute. But when you play the game in English, this means you get such lines like "The city owes so-and-so a debt of gratitude after he %$&@ stop to the alien invasion!" "Isn't it" appears as "Isn'#$&@".

Scunthorpe Problem / int_1c1ceec7	comment	Monster Hunter: The older games had a basic filter, which compensated for workarounds... however, this made saying "he'll" a tad difficult. For a mostly online multiplayer game that emphasized teamwork but had no voice chat, compounded by the fact that you would often be predicting where the monster went, it got a bit frustrating. You couldn't say "He'll probably be in zone 6 next," and had to find a workaround. In Monster Hunter 3 (Tri), the word "after" is bafflingly censored. Apparently it's the medical term for anus in German, but that may not have anything to do with it. Among the other censored words are "sa" and "blitzkrieg", which makes talking about the in-game weapon "Blitzkrieg" difficult, especially since it's a switch axe, logicaly shortened to "sa". The "Hell hunter jacket" is also censored. Any word including the fragment "kak" is censored, which is bothersome in Finnish where it's not uncommon.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_27b0262b	comment	iTunes' automatic censorship can get pretty ridiculous. Here's an example from the MythBusters episode Sinking Titanic (a direct quote): "Find out if a sinking ship will sk passengers down as it goes under." (Yes, they starred out "suck"). That sks. An episode of a podcast talking about vampire movies was filtered out to "They Vant to S*k Your Blood." It gets really hilarious when applied to non-English titles; e.g., iTunes is under the impression that the 19th movement of Orff's Carmina Burana is called "Si puer cm puellula". (Given what the movement is about, this is actually oddly appropriate.) And it appears that iTunes doesn't know about actual Latin dirty words, because it doesn't censor the title "Ameana puella defututa" (from Orff's Catulli Carmina). iTunes also offers at least a dozen settings of Shakespeare's well-known lyric from The Tempest, "Where the Bee S*s". In the Law & Order: Special Victims Unit episode descriptions, "rapist" is censored but "rape" is not. And the Pogues album "Rum, Sy and the Lash". The word "Playboy" is also filtered to "P*y", making it look like the title is much more naughty than it actually is. "Jailbreak" is censored thanks to the iDevice modding community, affecting albums and songs entitled "Jailbreak". However, the Steven Universe episode by that name managed to get through by being called "Jail Break", with a space, instead.

Thankfully, it can be turned off. This one isn't the game developers' fault, however, as it's included in all games published by NCSoft. The filter was later expanded to censor an NPC henchman's battle quote: "Ever see a Tengu that could take a bite out of you?" and some Centaurs talking about two tribe leaders being on the verge of an agreement. Both are French words for "penis". This censorship carries on into its sequel, Guild Wars 2. Also included in the list is "reputation" (where puta is a Spanish word for "whore"). When Guild Wars introduced a game-supported forum, they turned every swear word into "kitten". Lots of users will talk about how something is "kittened up".

Scunthorpe Problem / int_36d154a	comment	DC Universe Online is bad with this. Among many frustrations with the filter, it's inconsistent. If a string of letters has a bad word in it, no matter if it has a space to denote that they aren't words, it will censor (i.e. "Wish it" would become "Wi#####" because of the filter.). However words with a bad word in it (Such as Scunthorpe) can get by. It's even possible to say the word "bitchass" even though both words would trip the filter on their own. "Ass" itself is a special word in that it is used in game content (Wonder Girl uses it in her cut scene). To compound the problem, at the time of writing there is no way to turn off the filter to avoid this problems, and the devs act shocked that the players are asking for one. An area in Gotham City was censored from Amusementpark for this reason.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_3c15e386	comment	The clan chats in Angry Birds 2 prevent use of milder English words such as "god" and "razor" and delete any and all messages containing such strings for profanity upon submitting them. With the clans allowing for many different countries besides the United States to be set to them (such as Germany, France, Croatia, Latvia, Spain, you name it) and the filter likely not being adjusted to suit a clan's spoken language, this opens up the opportunity for an entire message to be deleted over an innocuous foreign word that just so happens to contain a forbidden substring (for instance, the Croatian word "razoriti" will trigger the deletion due to containing the aforementioned "razor", even though "razoriti" actually means "to destroy" and is nowhere near being profane). Even worse is that in alternate-language clans, it may also allow actual profanity in the clan's language to pass through, spelling and all (depending on the language in question).

Scunthorpe Problem / int_3f633fb4	comment	Cracked: The Profanity Filter is hilariously over-the-top. This is made even more ludicrous because Cracked's primary demographic consists of 18-34 year old males, who would have no need for a filter. One can turn off the filter, as there is a button that says "show profanity". But it's always on by default, and one must switch off the filter for every individual article. The site censors the "jap" in "Japan". Considering that almost half of their articles are about how crazy Japan is (the other half being dick jokes), this is quite annoying. An article can say all seven dirty words with no censorship, yet they feel the need to censor the comments section. Not to mention the "cum" in "documentary" and the "cock" in "shuttlecock" or "cockerel", though as of this writing it does not censor anything containing "dick." They censor the term "homo". This means Homo sapiens, Homo erectus and Homo Superior are blocked thanks to the space, but what about Homophobe? They also censor the "spic" in "suspicious." Even worse, they do not post any comment on an article with a link. Doesn't seem so bad, they want to cut down on spam, sure. Except that it simply deletes the comment instantly, meaning it's lost forever with the commenter having no idea where his post has gone. Okay, that's a shame, but it shouldn't come up much... except for the fact that Cracked has an original web-series called Rom.com. Which means anyone posting the name of the series in the comments will have their message immediately deleted forever.

During one of the RAVE events in the English-language version, where part of the gameplay involves picking songs that fulfill "Trend" criteria (such as "songs by a particular unit" or "cover songs"), one of the daily Trends was "songs that have 'cat' in the title", likely with the intention of "songs that are about felines". Obviously, songs like "I Shall Be a Cat" and "CAT'S EYE" fulfilled this condition...and so did any song where "cat" was part of a longer word, like "The Catcher in the Rhyme" and "JUST COMMUNICATION". In a similar vein, another trend was "songs with spelled-out number in them", i.e. "one", "two", "three", etc.; songs like "Find Your One Way" and "SEVENTH HEAVEN" obviously count, and so do "Cutie Honey" and "HONEY".

In World of Warcraft, the moderators of the game banned the display of a number of website names that were notorious for violating the terms of service (mainly selling in-game gold and items for real-world money). One of the banned names was "ukow", and it has been banned in all forms, including with spaces in the middle. The result was a rash of humorous, faux(?) outrage that it was no longer possible to say that one's "talbuk owns" (a talbuk is a type of animal in the game) in the in-game chat. A forum moderator with a sense of humor responded to the "controversy" by suggesting an extensive list of alternatives to the word "owns" that could be used to describe an exceptional talbuk. Also on the forums, the word "rape" is censored. Why is this a problem? Linking an item with drape in it (i.e. the Daybreak Drape) gets censored on the forums (in this case, it would appear as Daybreak D$#@% instead).

Scunthorpe Problem / int_51507cf2	comment	A strangely inverted example happens sometimes in the Something Awful forums. When you try to read them while not logged into an account, all swearwords will get swapped by funnier replacement words,note Thankfully, this filter specifically only replaces whole words, so the trope is mostly averted; as a side effect, composite swears like "bullshit" go through just fine like "fuck" -> "gently caress", "shit" -> "poo poo", "shitty" -> "lovely", etc. This means that if a poster attempts to use the replacement words in their own post (most probably "lovely"), an accountless reader may not know whether the poster meant to say a swear or use the word itself. A long time ago there was a filter changing "sir" to "fag" after creator Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka got sick of posters constantly addressing each other by "good sir." It was eventually taken out, but for months everyone was eating fagloin steaks and hearing fagens. At some point, obvious typos would be changed to "[NOTE: I AM TOO STUPID TO SPELL THE WORD "(word)" CORRECTLY]". Which gave rather strange results whenever someone tried to use the word "ingenious", since the entire latter part of the word was interpreted by the parser as a misspelling of "genius".

Scunthorpe Problem / int_5bd9e7b7	comment	Dark Souls II and Dark Souls III have a whole list of words that are censored for use in character names during multiplayer, replacing all appearances of these words/letter sequences with asterisks. Some notable ones include "ead" (an acronym for "eat a dick", which most players probably didn't even know existed until they saw it censored here) and "nig", which means players can't call themselves an Undead or a Knight in a game about the Undead and knights, where most knight characters even have the title of "Knight" in front of their name! This led to "K***ht" becoming a meme in the community. There's also way too many that are just pointlessly redundant (such as censoring a word as well as its plural, when just censoring the singular would do the job just fine), and a few that are just hilariously weird (such as "ricockulous" and "fuckingshitmotherfucker"). And the most ricockulous— er, ridiculous part of it all is that the filter is case-sensitive. So if you name your character "MOTHERFUCKER" in all caps, the game will deem it perfectly acceptable. Many have questioned just what the programmers who made this filter were thinking. The PC version of Dark Souls II can be uncensored as the censored words lists for every language are easily accessible files in the game's directory so you can just replace the one for your language with a blank one, but this is sadly not the case for Dark Souls III.

It also replaces all potential swears with asterisks when anyone else views your ship, resulting such silly things as "Ambassador" becoming "Amb***ador".

Scunthorpe Problem / int_6fe3e8a7	comment	Neopets has been known to have this problem on its forums. Saying the word "firetruck" would get censored. Also, too bad if your RP character's wearing a bikini — it'd inevitably get switched to "cardigan". The fact that SpongeBob SquarePants was often said to live in Cardigan Bottom was rather less than optimal. And not only does Neopets do this with profanity and other such "inappropriate" content, they also ban discussion of "controversial topics", which means one can get in trouble for saying the word "politics". Making matters worse is that, in many (but not all) of the cases, the warning page would tell you what was detected, completely defeating the point of censoring the words in the first place. It got worse, where the filter for Neomail (private messages) played this trope painfully straight. Words such as "something", "document", "circumstances", "facepalm", "'hello", "skill", and so on would be blocked. Another such word is "birdy", which is unfortunate since not only is it a logical thing to call any pet or petpet based on a bird, one of the games on the site is Tyrannian Mini Golf, which does indeed use golf terms such as "birdy" and "bogey". They're also not very fond of "isn't it", "doesn't it", or anything of the sort. And you shouldn't talk about that time you explored the basement, or mention grapes or drapes. The "grape" problem is particularly egregious because it's available as a pet color for Chias. Neopets has a large number of unlockable avatars you can use on the Neoboards (read: forums). A well-known fansite called Jellyneo has a tool that generates a list of avatars you haven't unlocked yet, and this tool also generates HTML code that can be copied and pasted onto your pet's page to give you more convenient access to this list. However, if you don't have the "Let it Snow!" avatar yet, you'll need to edit the code slightly to remove the image for said avatar before you can put the list onto the page, because the filename for the avatar itself is "letitsnow.gif" and Neopets' filters can find inappropriate words inside of the names of files on their own site. For a while, anything Twilight-related was filtered and changed to various silly things, such as rendering Twilight itself as My Little Pony and the author Stephenie Meyer as Krusty the Clown. This caused problems for someone named Stephanie, as mentioned in this editorial One day, as the people who run the site were moving offices, there were no people moderating the Neoboards and most of the usual systems for dealing with inappropriate content were down, leaving nothing but very rudimentary filters for that section of the site; these filters contained very few words and were easily thwarted by creative spelling or spaces. This quickly opened the floodgates to the opposite problem, as users started swearing, having NSFW roleplays, posting porn, spamming, posting entire movie scripts just because they could, exchanging Nintendo 3DS friend codes, and discussing serious topics that were usually off-limits due to being likely to incite flame wars. On the pet pages, you're not allowed to mention "documents" or "snigger". While talking to petpets, if you say something that trips the filter, the petpet will say, "Oi! Don't swear! This site is family-friendly!" even if you hadn't sworn. Drug references are banned, so you'll get this if you talk about "seaweed" to an aquatic petpet. One user had trouble because of the forums censoring their pet's name, because it had "peni" in it. They disallow naming a pet after things related to computer hacking, so "Hacking", "Hacker", and "Datacorruption" aren't allowed, but strangely, "Corruption" and "Hack" are. The word "uncle" being blocked was thought to be because of this, with users trying to puzzle over what the system could possibly be seeing wrong with it for decades, but years later, a staff member revealed that blocking it was on purpose and for a good reason: some rather vile people were using it as a code word while talking to younger users.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_8e93a13d	comment	The online Phantasy Star MMORPGs are notorious for this. Words like 'hello', 'Saturday', and 'shoes' would all wind up censored in Phantasy Star Online. The filter in Phantasy Star Universe was an improvement, but phrases like "I'm going to put a trap here" or "isn't it" would wind up censored because the system ignores spaces. In PSO, one of the Mags (a device that gives you stat boosts and Limit Breaks) is named Marica. Unfortunately it's a swear word in Spanish, and thus blocked by the multilingual swear filter for in-game chat. PSO also censored "hell", despite it being a common weapon prefix. One way to work around this censor was to look up HELL in WORD SELECT (the game's built-in translator). Oddly, WORD SELECT also included some censored words that were not game terms, such as "suck". PSO also censored "cola,"note Spanish for "tail", but can also mean "ass" or "penis". which was an item in the original Phantasy Star. It's not just prefixes, even some weapon names are censored, the most hilarious example being the Frozen Shooter. Even better is that it's considered practically mandatory for any Ranger due to its extremely high chance of freezing enemies, so you'll be seeing it a lot. And yet, despite mangling a LOT of harmless phrases, PSU's swear filter often missed plural forms of offensive words. Talk about half-assed! (And yes, you can say "half-assed" without getting censored in PSU.) This was a result of their attempt to fix the Scunthorpe Problem with "ass", to prevent words such as "pass" and "assassin" from being censored. The method used for this fix? Only censoring " ass ", i.e. when the word is surrounded by spaces. This meant the censor could be dodged simply by ending a sentence with "ass." (period or other punctuation). Perhaps awareness of the problem with this fix is the reason this fix was not used with other censored words (resulting in words like "skyscraper"note or perhaps "skyscraper"? being censored). Let's not forget the classic Twin Handgun Photon Art, "Twin %!&@#$*@%!$" (Penetration). The language filter isn't quite as stringent in Phantasy Star Online 2, and permits the word "hell". Even still, there are a number of words that still get censored, such as "pork", "blow" (but not "blows" or "blower"), "screw", and "crack" (but not "cracked"), which is rather annoying as "Crack" is the name of a highly sought-after armor augmentation. This is also bizarre, considering that the game has largely remained a Japanese-exclusive game (the reviled SEA version by PlayAsia notwithstanding).

The in-game Global Trade Station is designed to reject any PokÃ©mon who have offensive nicknames. "Fag" is on the list of banned words, which means every Cofagrigus traded on the Generation V GTS is either non-English or nicknamed. And the way the banned words list is implemented means that when innocent children have learned why they can't put up their Cofagrigus on the GTS, they've also learned the offending word. At least Cofagrigus is an evolved PokÃ©mon, so you could trade for Yamask instead if you don't want a nickname.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_959dd815	comment	Tit is another three-letter string that often shows up. Oddly, a good chunk of them are also kind-of dirty, even if they're not etymologically related to the word "tit" (e.g. "tittillating", "prostitute"). Among the other words picked up are "Constitution" and "title", which can make it particularly difficult to talk about Professional Wrestling. If it can't distinguish spaces, that can cause problems saying things like, "isn't it" or "doesn't it". Birds of the "tit" family, including the Great Tit are common in many areas, so censoring the word on a birdwatching or nature forum would also lead to hilarity.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_9ab42577	comment	White Knight Chronicles has a censor filter that is a mix of a couple different languages, which makes the English language very hard to use, and some may argue is the worst censor in an online game ever. Any word containing things like "con",note which includes "Congrats!", which is one of the pre-made default messages one can use "street", "load", "after", "upgrade", "until", "future", "ing", "Xbox", and lots of other things, which makes the in-game forum be written with random accentuations to avoid getting censored. It doesn't help that the forum not only censors but doesn't allow posts with said censored words to be posted, and doesn't even tell you what is wrong with your post. Just made a Wall of Text, but there is one filtered word in it? Good luck finding out what's that word. The censor also applies to in-game chat, so if you don't have a mic, you'll have to get used to using random accentuation while typing in the middle of timed missions.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_9ed2e8b5	comment	Azur Lane: The English version's chat censor isn't exactly the best. Examples include: Censoring the "ass" in "class"... in a game about warships of various classes. Fixed by putting any form of punctuation at the end of it. Censoring the "pedo" in "torpedo"... again, in a game about warships that use both ship-launched and air-launched torpedoes. Also fixed by putting any form of punctuation at the end of it. Censoring the "Jap"note A racial slur used to address a Japanese person in "Japan"... in a game heavily influenced by Japanese culture with a boatload of Japanese ships and voiced only in Japanese. Who designed that?? In the inversion of the above, Essex will be censored due to the word "sex" if there's punctuation or other texts before or after her name. Strangely, the word "shit" isn't censored at all. Bleep-dammit! What seem to be obscure Malay or Indonesian profanities are censored, including the "peli" in "zeppelin", "kimak" in "dakimakura", and "ewe" in "newer". Considering only the offending substring is replaced with asterisks (*), calling someone "newer" is ill-advised. An update in early 2024 added sm, ntr, and ghb,note A drug in addition to usually innocuous numbers and full words such as 1984, 89, 64, square, and tank.note References to the 1989 Tiananmen Square incident, also known as the June 4 (64) incident

Scunthorpe Problem / int_9f89a5f0	comment	PokÃ©mon: A PokÃ©mon introduced in PokÃ©mon Black and White by the name of "Cofagrigus" has created this problem. The in-game Global Trade Station is designed to reject any PokÃ©mon who have offensive nicknames. "Fag" is on the list of banned words, which means every Cofagrigus traded on the Generation V GTS is either non-English or nicknamed. And the way the banned words list is implemented means that when innocent children have learned why they can't put up their Cofagrigus on the GTS, they've also learned the offending word. At least Cofagrigus is an evolved PokÃ©mon, so you could trade for Yamask instead if you don't want a nickname. This was later patched to make the PokÃ©mon's name an exception to the rule, but issues with other PokÃ©mon were not. Pineco, has the same problem and is not an evolved PokÃ©mon. (At least for Ho-Oh, you must have owned one to trade for it.) Weedle, Marshtomp, Sharpedo and Skuntank are also banned because of their names. Nosepass, Probopass and Froslass are still unable to be traded without a nickname, though Cofagrigus has at least been fixed. French people are suffering similar problems with their Seismitoad, or Crapustule as they call them. PokÃ©mon X and Y users who tried to name their PokÃ©mon after gym leaders would have trouble when they ran into Viola, one of the gym leaders from that very game. With the Kalos region being based on France, you'd think they would have taken "viol" being the French word for "rape" into account... There's also the Bulbasaur line, which is likely a bit confusing to anyone who doesn't speak German...'Sau' is German for 'Pig', and is used as an insult like it is in other places. Thus, you can't trade a non-nicknamed member of that family either. (The German names for those PokÃ©mon don't contain the offending syllable. In ascending order, they're "Bisasam", "Bisaknosp", and "Bisaflor" — no "Sau" in sight.) Germany also banned many Nazi-related words and phrases, including two-letter abbreviations such as SS (Schutzstaffel, Nazi Germany's State Sec), SA (Sturmabteilung, the Nazi Party's original paramilitary wing), and KZ (Konzentrationslager, meaning concentration camp). This also extends to names of player characters, such as "Killian" because "'Killian" implies something violent. PokÃ©mon GO gained a profanity filter when trading was added. It's smart enough to make exceptions for official mon names that happen to contain naughty words, but not for anything else with an obscure swear buried in it; and it won't tell you what the offending word is, only "this name contains inappropriate text." Anything nicknamed before this was added gets a free pass, though; the system only checks attempts to set new names, making illicit nicknames somewhat collectible. PokÃ©mon Sword and Shield have this problem as well; they don't even allow you to nickname your PokÃ©mon "Rock of Ages".

Scunthorpe Problem / int_a261ade1	comment	When the chat filter censor was first implemented in the US server of Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE, replacing the filtered words with question marks, there were some really ridiculous censors, such as 52note yes, you couldn't even say "I'm level 52" and powerlevel, while some swear words weren't filtered, one of which was widely known, and people said it just because they found it funny how it wasn't censored. This was changed after screenshots of someone saying "can someone powerlevel me?" in the shout chat of the most populated town started appearing in the official forum. While it's possible to turn the filter off, it's weird enough to censor the word "raccoon", replacing all but the first and last letters with asterisks. A couple months later, they completely remade the list of filtered words, and made it so players can turn the chat filter off in-game. Aeria Games' official forum had a filter that censored the names of certain skills, demons and items, such as Reshape Sex,note an item used to change the gender of an equipment Hellfire, Hell Biker, and Cockatrice. One person was known to be banned temporarily because he used a failure in the forums system to say some filtered names such as the ones mentioned above. Apparently, saying "H3ll" to avoid the censor was allowed, while using a fail in the censor to avoid it was a bannable offense. The Atlus Online forum has a less stupid, yet funnier, filter. During the time of migration, many old players would append an "EDIT: forum censor is funny" on the end of editted posts after realizing this.

For example, trying to say "Come check out my house!" would show up on the inputter's computer client-side due to containing the filtered word "house", but won't show the message towards other players. This led to the oft asked question of "Did that show?" by other players when attempting to perform a conversation. Club Penguin Rewritten's filter was a lot better, but there was still caveats. It was a lot worse on the offical Discord server for it. Not only were common words filtered out by being instantly deleted, it also filtered out people's names, more specifically names of notorious hackers in the Club Penguin Private Server community, or the names of those that were a hindrance to the staff members and later deemed Persona Non Grata on the server. This included "Jackson," meaning players couldn't talk about the King of Pop "Michael Jackson."

Scunthorpe Problem / int_b24467b3	comment	Onmyoji has an incredibly obnoxious chat filter that censors a truly bizarre range of words- the Chinese and Japanese builds don't allow the letters "death" æ» and "kill" æ®º, some fairly normal (albeit still stupid) examples like others on this list (you can't say "button", for example), some just plain mystifying (for some utterly inexplicable reason, you aren't allowed to say the words "cheat" or "system", despite them being in no way curse words). What makes it truly insufferable is that whenever you use one of the forbidden words, the game doesn't censor it out- it completely blocks your message and chastises you for it, without telling you which word is banned, which not only wastes your effort typing (whatever you typed is deleted from the chat field so you can't just change it and need to retype the entire thing again) but, considering the baffling array of banned words, can leave you with no idea what you even said wrong in the first place! Adding insult to injury, quite a few words managed to slip past the radar, perhaps most notably "damn".

Among other things, the name Teancum, from The Book of Mormon, is banned as a name, which makes some Mormons sad, because he was a pretty awesome Badass Normal. The Philippine servers of Ragnarok Online notoriously censored very common Filipino words which weren't profanities in either Filipino or English, such as "kuya" (big brother in Filipino). That's a result of multilingual censoring; "kuya" contains "kuy," a Thai swear word which was censored in several of the regional servers (Thai players used to be very common). The Brazilian servers censored the word "puta" (means "whore"), but it's also a substring of "computador", meaning players couldn't talk about their own computers without using "pc", which sounds weird. For a while you couldn't use the word "assist" or "assassin", which is particularly troublesome in the later example because was one of the character classes.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_d302abbf	comment	In Monster Hunter 3 (Tri), the word "after" is bafflingly censored. Apparently it's the medical term for anus in German, but that may not have anything to do with it. Among the other censored words are "sa" and "blitzkrieg", which makes talking about the in-game weapon "Blitzkrieg" difficult, especially since it's a switch axe, logicaly shortened to "sa". The "Hell hunter jacket" is also censored. Any word including the fragment "kak" is censored, which is bothersome in Finnish where it's not uncommon.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_d328cd69	comment	Dungeon Fighter Online has a dungeon called "Blazing Grakquarak". When typed, the censor changes it to "Blazi@#$%@aquarak", since "nggr" is censored for being an abbreviation of a certain word. It also censors "bastard", despite there being many Slayer weapons named Bastard Sword. "ass" is censored, and thus so is "class." Oops. One could speculate that the only reason "Hell" isn't censored is that it's a critical part of the word "Hello". This tends to be a common issue in Nexon games, to the point of becoming a bit of an in-joke within its playerbase.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_db30cf92	comment	The official forum of the Warrior Cats books, due to being aimed at preteen/teenage readers, had an overzealous filter. While many inappropriate words were correctly censored, the filter caused more problems than it solved. At first, the word "kill"/"killed" was blocked, which made it difficult to discuss a series about warrior cats where characters frequently die due to battle or murder. It was discovered that the number 666 was censored when links to the 666th pages of threads were broken, and sometimes the more tame censored words made a sentence look worse than it was: call someone a "fatty", and due to being replaced with asterisks it looked like you called them a different word instead. Meanwhile, various other (rather innocuous) words that happened to have vaguely adult references/meanings, such as "premature", "lotion", and "headlights", were censored as well, so rather than the filter protecting young readers from the dirty meanings, it resulted in many of them asking about or looking up the other uses of the words to figure out why on earth they were censored.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_ddc476b4	comment	Over at the GameFAQs forums, Japanese names like "Shizuru", "Shizuka", "Fukurou", etc. were once blocked on account of the first four letters. It got worse when the superhero movie Hancock was publicized, but at least the latter was corrected. The swear filter makes exceptions for certain words containing what would otherwise be banned words — such as "cockatrice", "lustful", "wristwatch", and of course "Scunthorpe" — as listed in this archived link (alongside the banned word list) It skips over line breaks, which can make it frustrating when trying to compose a list (at least until you learn that putting a space just before the line break fixes it without being visible.) The GameFAQs boards for the Disgaea series makes it really hard to discuss top-tier equipment, since the regular Infinity +1 Sword of the series is named 'Yoshitsune'. GameSpot has (or had) the word "class" censored out thanks to it containing "ass", which makes talking about character jobs/classes in games that have them, like Golden Sun, Team Fortress 2, Mass Effect, Fire Emblem, and more than a few Final Fantasy installments annoying. The Mons game Robopon 2 featured a line of monsters that were thieves. Atlus decided to name one of these monsters after a famous thief from another work of fiction (Robopon is filled with Shout Outs). Thus, they chose Fagin from Oliver Twist. Thanks to this trope, the (numerous) Robopon lists have it listed as Fgin. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City had a little scooter called the "Faggio", made "**gio" on the GameFAQs boards. Appropriate given it's the Italian word for "beech", but still.

Of course, you can put a space in any sensitive word and have it display properly, so while Button is censored, But Ton isn't. In the German version of the game, the censor is even more ridiculous, as it censors any abbreviation that could vaguely relate to the Third Reich, including "ns"note short for "National Socialism" or "as"note short for "Schutzstaffel", their paramilitary organisation. These letter combinations tend to be incredibly common in the German language though, so you cannot name your creatures as almost anything.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_f66f0639	comment	Fark.com has various filters which censor out key words (and even between words, not counting the spaces, so "wish it" would become "wishiat"). "Shit" is replaced with "shiat", "bitch" with "biatch", "fuck" with the site name, "nigger" with "attractive and successful African-American", and "nigga" with "Nubian" (thus, "niggardly" becomes "nubianrdly".) It would also render this trope's title as the "Scoonthorpe Problem". It's usually Played for Laughs: Fark doesn't have a problem with autofiltering; it enjoys every minute of it. note Ironically, "Scoonthorpe" is exactly how local people in Lincolnshire would pronounce the placename. Not only will it filter across spaces, it will filter backwards. When you combine the two, it can lead to great confusion and amusement. As an example, an article was once posted where someone was shot for egging a car. All occurrences of the phrase "For egging" were replaced with "Fonaibung."note Take the "Fo off "For" and the "g" off "egging", and read the rest backwards for the reason why it's filtered. While not profanity, the phrase "First Post" is filtered to "boobies."note And, if it actually is the first post, timestamped forward 12 hours, so that it usually becomes the last post in a thread. This eventually leads to the word "boobiesulated". Similarly, "first comment" becomes "Weeners", and "last post" becomes "minimum post" (even on the profile page). The most well-known example within the site is when a "this day in history" post of "Benjamin Franklin became the first Postmaster General of the United States" was translated to "the boobiesmaster General of the United States".

For example, "ass" is allowed, while its derivative, "asshole", is beeped (though strangely, "Goddamn" is left alone). As a further result of this filter, talking about Alfred Hitchcock is more or less impossible. The censorship policy also beeps certain Japanese words with worse English swear words within them, such as "dashitara" and "Odago,"note for the anti-Italian slur "dago" both of which are perfectly okay. This occasionally makes talking about characters in Japanese films a problem - Yoshitoki Kuninobu's name being rendered as beep Kuninobu, for example. They had to allow the word "Pussy", after a minor outcry by James Bond fans. Marx Brothers fans have difficulty referring to Harpo's trademark funny face, called the "Gookie," because the word contains the ethnic slur "gook" within it.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_f858847a	comment	The most infamous banned word is "Violet". Sorry, girls named Violet, maybe go with "Vi" or "Vio" for your Mii and/or in-game avatar. The reason is that Viol means "violate" or "rape" in French. "Viola" is also banned, which makes it funny in PokÃ©mon X and Y where there's a Gym Leader named Viola, in a region based off of France, and you can't give your character the same name! In Animal Crossing: New Leaf there's also a gorilla named Violet, and in Tomodachi Life one of the suggested female baby names is Violet, which you can keep, but you can't trade or share her. The PokÃ©mon example also became Hilarious in Hindsight when an OFFICIAL GAME known as PokÃ©mon Violet (as part of PokÃ©mon Scarlet and Violet) was revealed, but it's for the Switch, which does not have this issue.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_f8956ef3	comment	In YuYu Hakusho, Yu Kaito actually has this component as part of his powers. "Taboo" allows him to forbid certain things, which includes saying certain words. To demonstrate this, he says that he banned the word "Hot". While Hiei just shouted it out because he didn't think it would work, Kuwabara and Botan get tricked because they said "Each other". Kurama tricked Kaito into laughing after a game proceeded to ban every single letter from being spoken, and thus laughing technically is saying a forbidden letter.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_f8d79d51	comment	Gunbound has a few weird examples, a few of which affect discussion of the game itself — for example, "tai" (for whatever reason) is censored, meaning you couldn't say "mountain" (in an artillery game no less); "suck", preventing you from talking about one of the mobiles who has an attack that does just that to its enemies; and "spic", preventing you from talking about Spicule, one of the guild members.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_f91d0d38	comment	WWE Video Games has rigid but somewhat odd filtering in that one would expect someone who is an Un-person such as Hulk Hogan or Chris Benoit or political terms such as Iraq/Iraqi or Adolf Hitler to be verboten, but no these can be freely downloaded and uploaded. However as well as the typical examples being censored even common or safe words to the point of support is considered rude and will be blanked out.

Scunthorpe Problem / int_fa5e90fd	comment	The City of Heroes profanity filter is rather weird, sometimes censoring words almost at random. Luckily, the in-game filter can be turned off, and the official forums have a much saner filter. The filter is particularly sensitive to religious topics, leading to words such as "Jew" and "God" being filtered — so you can't discuss any God Tropes that may apply. It also censored "45S", which occasionally came up if you and your team were fighting enemies in that level range — apparently this is a holdover from an earlier NCSoft title whose players used the string as a substitute for "ass".

Scunthorpe Problem / int_fb0bef97	comment	The Unforgotten Forums had (or has if it comes back) only two censored words. "Fuck" is changed to "boink". And "Will" is changed to "Rob''. The site's creator put in that joke because of his fiancÃ©e's "views" on Will Smith, but it sometimes got annoying.

A surprising number of legitimate accounts get flagged, especially those with proper names containing an embedded obscenity or slur (Nazir, Takeshita, etc.).
