And by "boot", I mean kicked off the server.
When I first heard about this new "censorboot", I snickered to myself. I thought it was really funny how now ST was booting people for bad language. Likewise, I presumed it'd never happened to me, as long as I'd never swore.
Unfortunately I was wrong. Today I encountered two occasions where I was erruptly sent an "interupt request". Neither the two phrases I typed, resulting in my boot, were meant to be offensive or inappropriate at all. Nevertheless Sonic Team thought it'd be wise, to boot me anyhow.
After logging back on, I immediately recorded each phrase:
WARNING: BY TYPING THESE PHRASES IN PSU, THERE IS A HIGH LIKELIHOOD YOU'LL GET BOOTED OFF THE SERVER! PROCEED WITH CAUTION! XD
Phrase #1"you can always w
ait for Epi 3 Chap
ter 2 to be"
As we all can see, Sonic Team is quickly threatened by players compromising their story amongst other less informed players. To discourage spoiliers from leeking, Sonic Team is willing to boot anyone attempting to spread unreleased information.
Phrase #2"it's always nice t
o seeing a Soda J
igga fail, and"
As we all can see, by adding the "ing" after the "see", I made my phrase grammically unproper, which by the eyes of Sonic Team, warrants a server boot.
Sonic Team seems to not only boot players off the PSU servers for bad language, but equally, they boot players who announce story spoiliers and players who practice bad grammar.
EVERYONE BE WARNED NOW: IF YOU ARE CAUGHT SPILLING SPOILIERS OR USING BAD GRAMMAR, SONIC TEAM WILL NOT HESITATE TO BOOT YOU OFF THE PSU SERVERS!!
