Current Events > Can a mod explain how moderation = 14292401 is a censor bypass?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm baffled.

Yeah you have to censor the whole word, or you can have the first letter and the rest censored.

I don't even know what the word is. The one "bad" word I have in my post is shit and you're allowed to post shit. I just spelled it really long.

Like I said. I'm baffled.

but it's caught by the swear censor if you have it turned on, so even if it's not the case for you, it might be bypassing someone's censor

Yeah that's fair, the censor is still there it just auto detects shit and stars it out for people who have the censor on. If you elongate it that's bypassing.
---

The filter has to be able to pick it up to autocensor it for people with the censor on. If you spell it in such a long way, it won't be detected and is considered a bypass.

Let's say "gris" is a curse word. I, being a little sensitive baby man, can set an option so if any one posts "gris," I see **** instead. If you post it as "griiiiiiiiiis" though, then I see it as "griiiiiiiiiis" and am now triggered because I saw a bad word. This causes me to place an emergency phone call to my therapist.

...Therefore, you receive a moderation for not properly censoring the word!

Well shit. I had. I idea. I totally forgot there was a censor at all. That explains it. Thanks, fam.

Sorry fam. Didn't mean to trigger snowflakes like us with my post. Let's try to keep gamfaqs a safe space.

I was going to explain it with "gris", but yours was a million times funnier.

I got nothing.

There really should be an option to mark your own words as censored for users with the filter turned on. Words like what TC used and others with "alternate spelling" are commonplace on the internet but we can't post them here.

One minor correction: The former example would show up as g*** with the censor on, not ****.
