Yeah no. This is the internet, cry about it. A discord server link is literally in plain sight. Too much effort for nothing.

seriously what is the actual point? lot of useless effort. again, this is the INTERNET. on FORUMS. targeted to NO PARTICULAR AGE.




One of my biggest questions about society has always been: Why on earth are people so paranoid about certain words that often are used in an unpleasant context? Why is it the end of the world if someone says something aggressive? I don't see the issue.



On a place like these forums that use Discord and YouTube to function, it is incredible this becomes an issue.




The Internet and young children is a huge mess.



Also, this is NOT professional. What do you expect from a fan site?
kids are on the site
Okay, but was this site specifically targeted to them? This isn't your Among Us. And so what if they're there. Plenty of children access services that aren't allowed by their age.




Essentially, I'm trying to say that if you go on a site as a young person on a site not directed to that audience, EXPECT THIS. Especially on a fan site.




And so I loop back to the first question. Why go through the effort???

Also the rules literally state to tone down profanity and censor it

I'm a kid litterrally (11 years old) and...
I don't know. Man, I got on some Discord, and they are way much more violent that this website. Except some dramas and immature persons like me, there is a big NOTHING ! I mean, the problems, you can report them and wait. Also yes censore is kinda stupid considering that somr admins are swearing sometimes on Discord, everyone swear, I mean you can understand it at least. Swearing or bad words isn't bad. It's if you repeat them endlessly, but seriously. In the 2022 MKPC, there is not much swearing and surprisingly there was more before : princesslucky Era, landon Era, etc. Remember : everyone is swearing. And it would be stupid to have the censore. Why go through effort ? The only thing we should do is a censore for the two n words, the p word (considering the Ukraine War) and the two f words.

I agree, everything was worse in the past, I remember the swears. And because of the new "norm" of social media nowadays of saying very weird and inappropriate words, it is right to censor the words you have listed.

If the swears really bother you that much, there is an option to remove the online chat.

Or, if you still want to see messages, literally just ignore the swears. This website isn't exactly targeted towards kids, as osc-omb said. If you are getting mad over someone elses words that likely weren't getting addressed to you at all, then you need to be more mature.

However, if they are swearing **at you** in a clearly aggressive way, then I think that warrants a sanction for the person that was being offensive. You can report it to the mods or join the discord server and use the report function.

The only possible thing (for online chat) that should 100% be censored is slurs that are very offensive to people.

And if they are spamming then you can report it anyway.

However, for things like track names, I think that there should be a censor. Recently, there has been an uprise in multiple things:
a) Square quick mode tracks
b) Stolen tracks
c) Tracks with.. odd names to say the least

But in the online chat I think it's incredibly unfair for there to be a censor, especially when it's a reaction based thing, if you lose a race sometimes you get frustrated if you have that sort of mindset.

I know I am reviving old topics, but I am here to reconsider thi.
Today, I played online with some kids, and they were SOOOO immature. I know you can close teh chat but that was still annoying to see them talking about dirty things etc. some people told me that I was too young for Internet and they were very dirty at the end so I think we need something. We don't need censor for swears, but censor to those type of discussions. That was a mess and I received things like "kys" and stuff... By the way, some people got banned cause I reported them. Max-Bros can argue with this. I'm not sending screenshots here 'cause it's bad, but...
