The "Kitten" Thread
XD
I’m going to need to bookmark the page.
I don’t think ANet is using inhouse software for the forum, so they are at the mercy of whomever they bought it from.
Someone else’s example:
Uncensored: Things are a smidge chaotic.
Censored: Things are a kittenaotic.
The reason for the above filter is the word azzhat (replace ‘z’ with ‘s’) formed from neighboring words.
The second one might have been smidge (filter workaround) too chaotic, which would filter out the word a certain part of the population may find offensive.
There is always a method to its madness…lol.

I know why it got censored (even pointed it out to the guy who originally typed it). I just thought it was funny
I just came across another.
Player I: For bag space, I use four mithril boxes and an orichalcum box.
Player II: For bag space, I use four orichalcum boxes ankittenhril box.

And another…
Player I: Wow what is that hat on your head and where did you get it?
Player II: That is my Wizard’kitten. A special headpiece given to players during Wintersday 2012.
I’m not sure what the point of this is. The forum filters out swear words, whether they have spaces in-between the letters, or not, or have letters before and/or after.
Maybe the point is it needs better AI, to distinguish context. Lol. Maybe the Team can put in a special whatever for the Witch’s head apparel, since that is an item in GW2. I don’t know. But, the others have too many combinations, I would think.

I would think they can add exceptions to the filters. If not….. this thread is indeed pointless.
