Away with profanity in crafting style names, please

Alchemical✭✭✭✭✭Yeah you can just turn it off, but it also, apparently, impacts your ability to name things. Like my argonian guild 'Sweet Water' was forced to have a - in the middle of it, and in chat it comes up as 'Swee****er'. Which imo is both ridiculous and also sounds more like profanity than the original words. Or at least if someone called me a Sweeer I'd assume it was an insult.3 -

✭✭I'm bad at remembering to turn the profanity filter off until I type something like 'put on' and it gets censored. I'm actually tempted to turn it back on to expand my vocabulary in random languages.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭The filter being oversensitive actually taught me a lot more lewd/bad words in English than I knew before. It's kind of doing the opposite of what it's supposed to.This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.2 -

yes, that gets censored. yes, there is a space between "pen" and "is"
Yep, that was the first one I came across, and I promptly went and turned the thing off. It's now on the list of stupid settings I have to change each time I roll a new toon (because, you know, a "turn on/off account-wide settings" option would be too complicated).Edited by Kiyakotari on June 15, 2019 12:06AM0 -

(It assumes you're trying to say that euphemism for a woman's more intimate area that both begins and ends with a 't' and just throwing in spaces or dashes to confuse it. The end result is a very different kind of confusion, of course.)0 -

LordTareq✭✭✭✭✭What I don’t understand is why people have the profanity filter on in the first place? If someone is spouting profanity just put them on the ignore list!0

"woman's more intimate area" is an euphemism; the word behind asterisks is not. Euphemism is a word or expression constructed purposely to bypass a filter (human or machine). For example "alternative facts" is an euphemism for "lies".

Fair enough, I should have used "term" rather than "euphemism." I was just trying not to get censored by the forum software.
