A profanity filter isn’t a license to use profanity.
Yes, it is. If all profanity is not allowed, why are we given an option to be allowed to read it? Why not have it blocked from the game completely if we aren’t allowed to use it?
But why leave the option to read foul language if ALL foul language is banned? Absolutely makes zero sense. That’s like giving little kids bags of candy just to tell them they can’t eat it.

I was recently suspended for using “inappropriate language”. Please read my message sent to support below.
Hi, I was recently trying to log into my Guild Wars 2 account but received a temporary suspension for “inappropriate language”. After reviewing the rules of conduct I have discovered that the reasons in which I have been suspended are justified, yet the guidelines are contradicted withing the game itself. I pose this problem to the support staff. When initially starting the game, I had selected a setting so that inappropriate language would NOT be filtered. Now, whenever I have happened to use inappropriate language we can acknowledge that because of this setting, only people who willingly choose to see the language will in fact see it. Given that most people do not read the rules of conduct before playing a game, having an option to not filter profanity makes it seem very clear that profanity is allowed and readily available, so far as the user has decided they can be mature enough to handle it. Now knowing that foul language is NOT allowed in the game, I fail to see why there should be an option to show it. This is misleading and my suspension due to profanity seems misguided. I hope to be able to log back into my account ASAP so I can inform my peers that profanity does not fly in Tyria.
Thank you for your consideration in the matter,
Mac
