Anyone else realize that you can't say "lol" in PSU anymore?
What's crazy is my husband was saying "IoI" instead and then he went to say it after a few minutes and it censored that too... Can't even do "!o!" ... What's going on?
We'll have to resort to the "haha" or "/o/" from now I suppose. XD

What an interesting act of censorship.

Yep. Already raged about it. They're just handing me reasons to remain a mute in-game. <3

Why the fuck is this censored?

This game is already ridiculously hard to type in without getting censored. :/

They probably did this as a fail attempt to censor "loli". Is this Sega's wordfilter or Microsofts?

Well, I did get censored last night for typing "lol yeah". I facepalmed so hard that I left a dent in my face.

Microsoft most likely. Anything that can be bypassed with an @-key, meaning anything that censors the entire message rather than just the one word, is a Microsoft censor.

Sega use the same censor that was programmed into JP PSU, which is pretty much the same as it was in PSOBB. Sega, doing work to update something? Pshaw.

On a related note, M$'s one keeps getting updated. We can now say help, which we couldn't do when, say, Bruce S was new.

I don't think these censors were intentional, I think it's a bug. Like sometimes you can say "lol" and sometimes you can't, it's completely random. I can't even say the word "too" half of the time. I could be totally wrong though and Sega or Microsoft are just being really lame.

Isn't "lol" another mmo/game?

Yes, it is, but as LoL.

What's so wrong about trying to say "loli"? Microsoft is now an anti-pedo enterprise? Ridiculous, lol.

Because pedophiles are scum? Seriously, if you want to express how much of a pedophile you are, go to 4Chan and keep that shit away from my Phantasy Stars. >:/

There are worse things than pedos in 4Chan, lol. Like 40 year old nerds living in their moms' house basement :0

And no, I'm not pedo, I just like ripping on the lolicon shit.

Didn't you guys get the memo? Logic in PSU is a punishable offense.

Also, the word "cute" is being blocked by the filter as well. How is the word "cute" offensive?

I don't seem to have any problem with "lol" whatsoever? Although at one point I couldn't type "A White King" (my gt) because it kept saying that King was a bad word and now there is no problem with King? PSU is SO very bug free.

Yeah it seems like everything is normal again, I haven't had any random censored words all day. But who knows, I may be censored to the fullest come tomorrow.

I tried saying "lol" after seeing this thread and it was fine.

No censorship at all.

In fact it seems they only censor words deemed bad instead of the whole sentence now.

I hope it was just a temporary thing, because I had to erase a shortcut of mine because of it. I couldn't say "feel". What the hell? I've also had a problem with typing a lowercase j. Censored everything because I hit the wrong key on the OSKB on accident, then didn't bother to fix it.

So many words are getting censored & uncensored. "help" used to be censored for a long time & now it's not.

I'm playing PSU now & I tried "lol" & it did not censor me.

I wonder why games don't have word filters you can edit yourself in a .txt file in the game folders. Makes a hell of a lot more sense to block what you find offensive rather than what SEGA or M$ finds offensive. In the 360's case, maybe a ingame list or something.

It is necessary to allow players that pay to play to be able to CHOOSE if they want to or not. At least that's what I think.
