    Why in the world would 900k ever be a part of ANY profanity filter?

    After searching google, a lot of profanity filters block 900k, no clue why though.

    To me such profanity filters are weird - especially when the game is M rated. But it is even more weird, when I cannot even mention historical figures in a chat, and it will get filtered out. Something like that might make some people feel offended, but it is not profanity at all, but historical truth. And if the truth cannot be said any longer, then we live in a truly miserable world.

    I use profanity filters, in all of my MMOs.
    Why? I can see an unconscious slip of the tongue when someone swears, but to consciously type profanity... I mean, why?
    I don't want to be flooded with a bunch of 12-year-olds that have just discovered boobs and curse words.

    I have no idea why but that's your problem either type it in different or turn that stupid filter off if it's on your end and auto block whoever uses one only a care bare needs a PF. It's like the USA army now the new soldiers actually have stress cards they can hold up if the drill Sgt is being to mean or whatever on them. HEY!!! That's what we need in PvP stress cards to all these baddies that cry nerf this and that n yes I totally got off topic and my format is crap but true.

    Average right now is 350-370g. 320 is a good price.
    Prices seem to be more on console as a rule from what i've read here.

    I'm Irish and pretty close to being un-offend-able. I play games with British friends and they dig up famine jokes, potato jokes, alcoholic jokes and everything in between and they don't understand why I can laugh at almost anything.

    Being offended is a choice.
    It doesn't take any more or less energy to be amused instead... and it -really- vexes the people who are actually trying to offend you if you are amused at their efforts instead... so... well done! ;)

    Let them see that their words can cut you and you’ll never be free of the mockery. If they want to give you a name, take it, make it your own. Then they can’t hurt you with it anymore.
