New Censor Feature - Odd Censored Phrase

So, when I was chatting post-game, I was commenting how instead of picking up Nancy, I picked up Claudette. The message was like,

"She saved you in a way. Instead of picking you up, I picked her up." However, the censor feature did this:

"She saved you in a way. Instead of picking you up, I (censored) (censored) (censored)." Lol what?

    yeah, the filter can be pretty stupid sometimes. I was once typing in Elder scrolls online "it is permanent" and the filter decided to censor "is" and "permanent" because of the "sperm" word, which i don't even consider a bad word tbh. Maybe because i'm too European...

    I typed in “this game is dumb” after a match where the killer hit me over a pallet twice instead of getting stunned and it censored it. Definitely needs some work lol.

    The words trash and garbage aren't censored yet so

    Most of the endgame chat will probably be the same except instead of

    'Swear Garbage'

    It'll be

    '#### Garbage' instead

    They censor the word "kill" and "killed". In a game where there's a mode called "Killer".

    Keep in mind, this is the same company that nerfed Gear Head.

    tbag is censored as well for some reason. It's really annoying because it's been causing arguments because someone will say something like "There was no reason for that tbag =/" and it will just say: "There was no reason for that #######"

    and then someone will be like "lol u so mad potty mouth"

    The game is rated M... It's about brutally killing people... Yet now we have to censor words? And the censor doesn't even work right??

    Yeah the filter is kinda crazy. But you know, as BHVR said its meant to protect people from hearing racial, sexist and homophobic slurs (which I am all for). But instead you can't say social media sites, picked me up, tbag... Its censorship.

    To be fair that...that thing is pretty terrifying. Too much for a horror game.
