Filter ... for what?
Filter doesn’t give you the right to say foul language. End of story.
When you created your account, you were given notice via the ToS/EULA that there were certain things ArenaNet expects of you in order to have an account with them. You accepted those agreements, and created your account. One of the items that you agreed to was not to use profanity or other potentially offensive words when communicating in the game or on the forums. It appears, based on your report above, that you did violate that and as a result have received a suspension from play.
Just because there is a filter does not give anyone automatic right to use profanity or other offensive language. The filter is there for those who wish to use it, but it is an option only. It may be used by parents who do not wish their children to see certain words, and it is possible that some adults prefer to not use it. It is up to each individual whether they wish to use it or not.
Obviously i know about the eula and stuff i understand what u said but i dont think u understand me.
If i dont like foul language i put the filter on therefore i wont report any1 becouse i cant see those words. But its like this I dont like foul language but i never active the filter so i see the bad words and report them.
I dont care really i got unbanned from now on i wont say the F word in any chat but believe me when i see some one saying it i will report.

The filter is not intended to serve as a “License to Swear” for users who choose to use offensive language. It is presented to afford some protection against offensive language, but we still uphold the stated rules regarding chat.
I like this analogy that a player posted a few months ago:
“Cursing in public chat channels is like cursing at an Olive Garden. You’ll get kicked out if someone complains. “Their kids could cover their ears” is not a valid excuse. Guild chat is more like a backyard BBQ. Swear and drink all you like — it’s your party. Threaten someone, though, and that’s still assault. Yes, I know we’re adults and hear plenty of bad things. It wouldn’t hurt to act like one every once in a while."
