“S C” should not be censored.
Recently on Adult Chat the site has updated what is automatically censored in chat. Most of them make sense: “selling”, “trading”, “rape”, etc. but the current censoring of “s c” is pathetically frustrating. I can understand that “s c” is a diminutive of “Snapchat”, and that the site does this to censor bots or users misusing the platform, but censoring a string of characters that often appears in normal written text is jarringly stupid.
“S C” is censored but “ SC ” isn’t.
Neither is “Snàpchàt” or any use of diacritics, punctuation or double spacing.
There are still a broad range of ways to obviously allude to the censored app, so this decision feels like a massive oversight, or some twisted joke.
Common innocent phrases that are affected by this censor include:
- This censor
- This country…
- This could…
- That’s cool
- It’s cold
- That’s correct
- That was challenging
- [user]’s chats (really any conceivable noun beginning with C)
Technically, you can avoid this by using a diacritic on S or C in the specific “S C” instance, but that feels like a needlessly overcomplicated and botched solution to something that can easily just be nixed in settings.
This issue doesn’t affect VIPs, which might explain why it hasn’t been patched, but there are plenty of loyal frequent users without the diamond beside their name, and it’s unfair that we have to put up with it. $20USD is a lot of money for some people.
I hope the powers that be may see this plea and simply remove this specific string (and any others like it that I’m yet to discover) from the list of forbidden phrases. This has been annoying me for weeks. Please resolve it.
Thanks,
