It's time to remove censorship

Honestly, why do we still have this censorship business going? It doesn't add or take away any value to the game, and whoever actually wants to curse can use block brackets for it.
As you can see here.

I was advised to start this thread through the lovely customer service. So, what do you think? Can we do away with this useless relic?

    Censorship is stupid, specially cuz it tends to censor 2 words that are separated with a space, making it really hard sometimes to communicate.
    If someone wants to curs ethen let it go, we are not kids anymore, we can all stand 1 or 2 bad words.
    Its not like its going to affect the VERY FEW kids that play this gamrle the fact that people curse

    Not sure why mods bothered removing your image (assuming it contained some filter bypassed word) since the game doesn't even filter properly to begin with.

    A good chunk of my screenshots contain naturally unfiltered words because it's bugged in-game for whisper/spouse chat and mini-game windows.

    Should just remove it at this point or make it toggle-able.

    would have been nice if censorship filters actually worked on cursing
    instead of dealing with nonsense filter for years...
    oh well when no power to make any change unless copy/paste :(

    Well most annyoing part is that nexon has items/monsters/etc. that contain parts that are cencored.
    pg.e Canal hoods, pianus, naricain...
    and just why does the curse filter have so many languages in it? makes it quite hard to communicate on some other languages than english or spanish since there's plenty of inflected forms of words that are just cencored due to it means something in haitian or in swahili...

    Either remove censoring all together or at least give us the option to turn it off. Seriously nexon this is basic stuff
