The chat filter is a troll

What language does it speak? Seriously, it does whatever it wants. Every kind of profanity goes through (which is alright with me, I hate censorship) but once it blocked "shift left click" or "pi ki c effondrer par boute" (which means "Puis qui s'est éffondré par boute" in french with a poor chat spelling, came out as "## ## # ######### par boute").

And while we're at it, why does the game blocks accents (éèêà...), it's not as if we could hack the game with these. The only harm that could be done by them is to disturb a couple of non french speaking players. Just block these for character names, so we don't have 5-6 different versions of spookey.turkay

Lol, in all seriousness the chat filter is pretty messed up, agreed. =p It also censors "Look there!" Because apprantly that can only mean something erotic.

There is one Item that can't be Ctrl+Click'ed into the chat because it gets censored.

The game censors it's own items...
