Filter preventing sharing of tune due to word 'h-o-m-o-l-o-g-a-t-i-o-n' or any variation of it!

So making a tune and was going to share and indicate it was h-o-m-o-l-o-g-a-t-e-d but the filter is saying I am using bad words.

Common this is your own wording. Now got to use some acronym of something to indicate the tune is … well can’t say it.

Edit: Oh and you can’t put anything close to that in your filename either or the share won’t work as well. So ya I’ll just be calling them rating + H.

The filter comes courtesy of Microsoft and there is no way of getting around it.

Not trying to get around it but why is homologation considered bad? (I know it contain a that can be use derogatorily , but so is homosapien and they are legit words). So, what I am saying is they came up with a word to describe a system and I can’t even let people know in my tune description.

They should have checked this before using this and instead I don’t know use ‘sanctioned’, ‘Certification’, ‘Approved’ or ‘Endorsed’. Doing that was a bit short sighted.

I found out the same problem while trying to do a gold variety of paint…apparently Xbox Live doesn’t allow “Gold”

…so I called it “Geld” then edited the name…worked

It appears that initial attempt is the only stage the filter is on

It’s because Microsoft had a word filter built around what is essentially an appropriate vocabulary for 5 year olds.

But wait, ‘homologated’ is a ‘big school’ word isn’t it? :slight_smile:
Maybe people could use an abbreviation such as hmlgtd. I was going to suggest ‘heterogated’, but that just sounds strange.
