Since when has iri been a banned word?

Also Limiter?!?!

Myers?!?!?

Like these are basic functions inside the game, What have we done to the censor?!

Is it mad at us? Should we be afraid of it?

    Yeah, I tried using iri earlier and it censored me. I had to say irid or IRI for it to work.

    iri has been always censored (since I play at least)

    same with "kill you", "you", "u", the name or several survivors, "sacrifice", "teabag", and lots of random words that make no sense why they are censored...

    The end chat is probably the most insane thing in the whole game 😏

    If we had to make a list of words that are censored simply because .... 0 valid reason, we would probably get to the length of the strips of one of the last skins of Dwight 🤣

    SUGGESTION to BHVR: make chat censorship not native, but an OPTION that can be enabled or disabled by each player.

    It's the stupidest thing, you can't say dead. It's in the name of the game ffs.

    Weird thing is, after a match it also censored "gg" for me. But the funny thing is, the killer could say it just fine and the next few games I could also use it.

    I think you underestimate the horror that the AI censor has to read on a daily basis.

    I would go haywire too

    Because back in the days when you could see other players grades, this info could be used to belittle/insult/ridicule/throw shade on someone.

    BTW,I am just explaining this stuff, not supporting it. The chat censoring has gone so much out of hand that you can't have any meaningful conversation.

    Names of characters, screen names,grades, anything that could be used to verbally attack someone in game are censored out, but this also prevents you from having a normal conversation.

    "Wow, that Dwights flashlight save was so awesome!" - not possible.

    "Myers with the scratched mirror on the map was sooo scary." - beep

    So the only thing that's left seems to be gg, ggez, ggwp and various insults, curses and death wishes thrown at me, my family and especially my mom. Nothing out of the ordinary, please just move on.

    If you think the blurring in English is bad just try having a conversation in German, it's genuinely alarming.

    Bill is a censored word, but not Bill.

    I literally had a whole sentence censored, it wasn't even bad, I was trying to compliment the survivors. But every word was censored.
