How is it profane to say "are under" in any sense?

We are under tower. This shows up as "We ......... tower."

They are under panth's ult. This shows up as "They ......... panth's ult."

Well I know for certain that it is blocked because it just blocked "are........under", "are/under"

It might be similar to a profane word in another language. Also i cant turn my kiddie filter off for some reason.

If Riot's stocks are underperforming where can I buy some? Would love to buy some to profit from the bounce back.

;)

(If you are going to troll at least make sure it makes sense)

There is alot of phrases that I believe algoritm(?) catches as insulting. However, worth to take a note that some languages contain insulting words and in english those words are just common, could be the case!

I once tried setting my status message to "DT Lulu recall plz" (referring to the desire to get a proper recall animation on Dragon Trainer Lulu) - but it wouldn't let me. After narrowing it down, it quickly turned out the new client picks up "DT" as offensive.

How odd that all this chat filter nonsense came shipped with the new client - a client made after Tencent (a Chinese holding company) bought Rito Gems, and thus this game...

No clue... sucks when you figure that out, though. In Final Fantasy XI, I had a macro that some "Incoming <T>" where <T> got replaced with the targeted enemy's name. Apparently it was getting filtered when the enemy name started with an E because the last 4 of incoming + E makes some bad word I've never heard before. But at least you know it know and can work around it!

I ~~loved ~~ love that game. Felt bad shilling out $14 a month for it.

What job did you like best? I leveled up WHM to 75, before they increased the level cap. That's carried over to me playing mostly support healers in this game lol.

WHM main for life. That was me leveling up THF for my insane (read: terrible) WHM/THF farming to get crafting materials. My linkshell eventually pressured me into leveling up BLM for situations when they wanted zero healers. I got back at them by investing in Wind rather than Thunder/Ice. Then the patch came out where Aero V was the strongest spell... I laughed so hard when I was outdamaging the Novio's BLMs despite my generally terrible gear.

But seriously, no game I've played before or since has had healers that were even a quarter as fun as FFXI WHM.

You can add me in game if you feel like it. I can seriously talk about FFXI for weeks on end even though I quit back in ~2012.

"Are under" is an extreme profanity in my city.

I cannot share what it means. It is too profane.
