Doesnt it make you mad when your having a conversation with sombody and dont use a "profane" word and runescape filters it? what words does the filter take out that you dont think should be taken out..

Like me for example, Hitler... they filter it... that makes me that

They filtered the silliest things. 'An all nighter' was filtered because it picked up on the bolded selection. Back in RSC, I remember having 717 skill total. It filtered that, too. They also filter other things like '1k till 88 strength' because of the bolded selection, as well.

Sometimes I guess these guys really need to stop thinking dirty and let us use proper grammar. It's devastating to the way people communicate ingame.

Yeah, Jagex isn't consistent with their filter. I think that since they were forced to make the the game 13+ due to that Child Protection Internet law thing(I forgot the name of it dry.gif ) that they should ease up on the filter, only filter out the swear words and the obvious ways around it. Some of the things they filter are ridiculous.

As for Hitler being filtered... That's just stupid. Hitler was a bad person yes, but does that alone mean we need to filter his name? No. Why don't we filter Mussolini, his little buddy? Why don't we filter (Slobodan) Milosevic who did the same thing as Hitler and did mass genocide? Hell, why don't we filter Bush? He lied and led the United States into a war killing 30,000+ innocent Iraqi's, 2000+ American Soldiers, and several other allied soldiers(don't know exact statistic). My point is, you filter Hitler, you need to be consistent and filter all the bad people.

On the lighter side I've thought it's funny that this is filtered:

0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0

THey probably filtered hitler because of what he stood for, racism genocide and attempted world domination.

Jagex should've made a customizable filter which we can add to the block lists ourselves. That way, those who don't mind profanities wouldn't need to care about it and those who want to keep adding the new 'workarounds' would be able to do so. Jagex will never, ever have to worry about the filter again.

At least RS2's filter is better than RSC's first filter.

Yes but then the little kids would set it to not black anything, and when there parents see it there will be controversy. Not to mention with profane language, the maturity and behaviour of the game will decrease.

Parent's problem for not paying attention.

Filter should simply be made optional.

Like in EVERY OTHER MMO ON THIS PLANET THAT DOESN'T CATER TO FOUR YEAR OLDS.

Oh wait. Runescape. Right.
