That tracks. WAY back in the day, you couldn’t say “wristwatch” or “pocketwatch”’ on the GameFAQs forum. Can you figure out why? It blocked both as one word or two.
It’s because both have “twat” in them. Any word that ended in T, followed by a word that begins with WAT, was automatically flagged for moderation.
Same situation. Kind of. Way different scale, sure. But similar logic by the computer.
And famously at one time the people of Scunthorpe in the UK couldn't post their town's name on many websites.
The old Scunthorpe problem.
Knight being censored in FromSoft games situation
Nasser had his name auto changed to N***er, which made everything better.
My favorite was a multitool forum that censored all swear words to "smurf." A common topic of discussion was the use of stainless steel Leatherman tools in and around the ocean, if they would corrode in that environment, and how to clean and care for them in and around salsmurfer.
Salfucker? Salcunter? Salasser? Salbitcher? Salshiter? Salcraper? Salbutter? Salnutsacker? Saldicker? Salcocker? Saltwater oh okay there it is.
