Mastery/Runes names being over censored

Something a bit interesting. Rune/Mastery pages currently censor a few champion names and classes. Assassin, Kassadin, Mordekaiser, Soraka, Rakan, Talon, Caitlyn, and Support are all some of the things being censored. Rak, Tal, Cai, dek, are whats being bleeped in the champion names above. Assass is bleeped in Assassin the same word is removed from Kass.

While some of the things are profanity in other languages or of a matching suit such as Rak being Cancer in Polish. This isn't a thing that needs to be censored and makes some champion specific Runes/Masterys a pain to deal with as Soraka and Rakan for example will have their names bleeped just due to a polish word.

I'm not sure what other things are censored as those are a few which I noticed (I have not tried every champion). There is no reason to have runes/mastery names pointlessly censored in this way.

baby sparkle (NA) - about 3 hours ago Hey, this is an oops on our part! Our profanity filter is really Doing Things at the moment, but we're gonna roll it back to be less aggressive. No ETA yet, but you should be able to name mastery pages normally soon.
