Why is "remake" a banned word?

The whole “skill point” thing is really kind of stupid when you think about it logically. It’s all about bashing, smashing, crashing, and ramming things to score points. Which is not really skillful in any sense of the idea.

And then in racing, we who want to race logically, get angry, when these “skillful” players are just ramming, smashing, and bashing like they are supposed to do in the game.

Maybe “skill points” should be awarded for avoiding fences, cactus, and other stuff. Skillful driving, :thinking: what a novel idea.

Maybe it would overlap into skillful communication. And we wouldn’t even need censor bots.

Seriously? That post got flagged? Better watch out for the ban boys!

Well it has actual abbreviated swearing in it.

Yeah, but it’s just a stupid number. I mean come on now. Have we gotten so weak kneed we can’t even handle a silly little number?

Don’t answer that, I know, yes we have.

SMH

:see_no_evil::hear_no_evil::speak_no_evil::scream_cat:

I’m gonna start using this as the universal curse emo :speaking_head:

See if the censor bots and nanny boys can have heart attacks over that one!

I found another one today “deal”

I was making a mock car ad for a monster slayer team for the area I live in and I typed. “Let us deal with the monsters” and it said it had a blocked word.

Well it could only be one of two words as the rest of the sentence is all basic prepositions, conjunctions, and adjectives.

It was not monster. I tried “deal” alone and bam. blocked.

Why in the heck is “deal” blocked. I understand that people can use it in “drug deal” but it is rarely used that way.

I know I can just say, “Let us take care of the monsters” but the former seems to be more of a selling point if I am making an ad car.

Besides, there is a game show called “Deal or No Deal”. How are you going to describe livery for that show without using “deal”

Come on! PGG is treating us like we are immature 2-year-olds.

I’ll take a guess that any vocabulary connected with the conduct of business and advertising gets blocked, but the filters don’t do polysemy.

I suspect that the majority of the seemingly innocuous words and odd letter and number combinations are banned unintentionally. They just have a pattern-matching algorithm and a set of rules that are so screwed up, they don’t even know what is banned. And they’re not going to take the time to sort it out.

I think you’ve got the situation figured out!
