  • because in some parts of the world.

  • @morgan-raven If i would guess because some people use it as a curse word and that offends christians (especially american christians are good in getting offended about that)

  • There's lots of weird censored scenarios.

    That is not even how that works "do not use lord's name in vain" means you are not supposed to start wars or commit ungodly deeds in the name of God.

  • @morgan-raven You talking to the wrong person, since i don't take any offense in that usage of that word ;-) (i rather prefere people doing that instead of using slurs or illnesses).

  • @super87ghost Which is why I doubt why that is.

  • @super87ghost But I appreciate your insight.

  • Jellyfish was once censored. I think they probably purchased a bad word list or one came with the forums software.

    May have gotten it from Microsoft, the MSN site is notorious for censorship, one of the worst on the internet.

  • I remember on the old "City of Heroes" forums they censored 'mullet'.

  • You'd be shocked at the words that are not censored

  • @morgan-raven what about SSCUM?

  • @foambreaker
    That does make sense, thank you.

  • @morgan-raven while you are totally right. Do you know how any times I got whacked for saying God at all if I wasn't praying? I can see why they censored it. Apparently Anorexic is censored too cause I was gonna make a sloop named Anorexic Galleon.

  • @raesed-digital God is not censored, Jesus is not censored, f-a-i-r-y is. You cannot even say Tooth F-a-i-r-y or a F-a-i-r-y tale. That's why I think they have a weird list as Foambreaker said.
