Hello there,

Simple and clear question .. Am I welcome here as a Muslim ? if YES , so why did you put (islam) as an F-word in your system (just try to type (islam) in chat) ?

The prejudice is real in here , and this is not acceptable at all because its so racist !!

Please fix this guys

Thanks in advanced..

They censored it because Islam is a special ideology in today's culture. If you criticize any other ideology, like Christianity or Buddhism for example, that's trendy and a-ok. But if you criticize Islam or Muslims, you're labeled a racist misogynistic cis white male who should just keep their racist mouth shut and accept their privilege. Welcome to 2017-22 days. Edit: My point is that Riot wants to stop the sh'tstorm before it starts.

dude this is an online game, religon is a choice of your owns..... non related to the game itself, plus no one cares that if you are or not, it is not like Riot ask your religon on your login page... dun be over the top sensitive and self -centered about everything

How about you keep your beliefs to yourself? There is no valid reason to bring Islam into League of legends.

I believe in a separation of church and league personally the most i ever bring up religious wise is

"OH LAWD JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL THIS RENGAR IS 11/0/21"

Many words have useless censors but don't worry, i'm sure Riot loves all their players

P.S. even though I am Catholic. I really admire the majority of Muslims, your faith is so strong and I truly think that's amazing :)

afaik they censor (definitely censored) the word "support" too

you are not welcome to play if you are a support!

I suggest you to play Zilean. The only offensive ability he has are bombs. But boy oh boy, bombs can be game changer when the fight erupts. BOOM SHAKALAKA, BOOM !

The prejudice is real in here

The prejudice is imaginary, because if this is actually the case, its called a SOFTWARE BUG.

Algorithms scan for words and word patterns. Programmers would say, they look for a** regular expression**

Regular expressions are not specific words, **they are formal descriptions of human language for a machine. **This can lead to unintended behaviour of the algorithm, for example by recognizing a pattern where it shouldn't, which I guess is the case here.

Example: This is what a SIMPLE regex looks like, how programmers describe human words to a computer algorithm:

/[d-t]?[a,e,i,c,o,u,m,z,t,b,f,g]{2-9}[p-z]?on/

It shouldn't surprise you, that it's possible to get a bug or two in something like that.


Bottom line: If you want to feel welcome, I would recommend that you, personally, start by stop feeling insulted, and realize that bugs are something that happens in software development.

Write a support ticket to their tech-department and notify them, IN A CALM AND FRIENDLY WAY, of the bug. Wordings like "THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!!" are not something a dev wants to read while sipping his morning coffee.

there are a lot of censored words that shouldn't be. 'chaos' is one of them i think
