The word shoes gets censored

[polizei]

It censored night on one of my replays I posted. Thought that was strange

Same

Age old issue with censorship online. Just be thankful you don't live on the end of the picadilly line or support the "gunners". Worse still you could live somewhere in Lincolnshire ......

If the mods on here fancied some fun they could mess with the swear filter, on a mountain bike forum in the mid2000's the word 'bling' was changed to 'mediocre'

 

[ZeldaGTFan19]

One of my pictures in GTS has the word "night" in its description but the word was censored...

I got mad and commented on it with the same word and that was censored too...

 

[sanrensho]

Indeed, i made a typical "its bishi" livery for my mITSuBISHI and "bishi" got censored in the description but not on the actual livery.

It's already been discussed in this thread. It's because of the 'nig' in night. PD won't allow racist comments in their game.

 

[Epic B]

As far as I'm aware PD uses a filter derived from Sony's. This is particularly good at detecting a number of terms that may be considered abusive or offensive, in different languages.

And by "good" I mean "hyperactive". It detects even partial matches and obliterates them.

In this case, I reckon it's picked up on "hoes".

And back on GT5 and 6 people were reporting the same issues.

Can we ban OP for swearing? This is a family forum

 

[Mattatsu]

I posted pictures of my 2018 livery for Lee Mowles Motorsports and the hashtag safegroup was censored!

Wondering if it’s censoring “feg” or “egro”.

 

[pedrocor]

Well, in my experience, only censured when I tried to message a specially "optimistic" Spanish last corner dive bomber "Mr... you are an idiot"

So no complains in this section

 

[stpatty]

That's "nig". The same might also apply to the censored word "engine", but in reality no-one's sure about that.

That one's baffling. Have a few tries at separating out groupings of three characters to see if it censors any of them.

I'm assuming "feg" in safegroup is the problem.

Who could forget GT5, where "Tsukuba" ended up censored. What a game.

 

[GTR365]

Perhaps we could create a thread for terms censored by PD.

For me, 'night' is the most common offender. I have replaced it with 'nite'. When posting replay images of silly, indigenous, non-vehicular scenes, I tried using the hashtag 'wtf'. This was 🤬; now *I'm* offended!

I experienced one other strange one, 'trapezoidal'. I assumed that the game creators have a problem with PEZ candy.
Actually, 'ape' likely is prohibited.

 

[Sven Jurgens]

This censhorship has also infiltrated your offline games now. I couldn't name my horse "horsy" in RDR2 and for some reason Base 695 (as in the distance still to the center) got censored in NMS. I'm too old or lack imagination to understand what is wrong with 695?

And yep, can't wish anyone goodnight in GTS lol. Or talk about engines. Yet add spaces and people can call you whatever they want. So pointless.

Rape.

 

[MMX]

I remember ZO6 being censored in GT5, not sure if it is still. Always thought that was odd, and couldn't see a reason for it.

 

[VXR]

I'd forgotten both times I've created a ***** livery that it censors *****

I've not tried Canon, maybe it's Sony removing traces of their competitor's names?

 

[MisterWaffles]

Fortunately it’s not that prevalent in GT Sport but I still love how the word “Night” gets sent to the shadow realm in every sentence it’s a part of for seemingly no reason. The only reason I can think of is maybe it’s a little too similar to a certain racial slur but even that’s a stretch.

“Hey, wanna go ***** racing at Bathurst?”

 

[AgentBlackDog]

I've experienced having the word "night" be turned into "*****". Don't know why that happens....

 

[SjefGielen]

That's probably got to do with 69 being a position someone doesn't want you to be in or do ;-)

 

[ZeldaGTFan19]

695 is a Fiat car xD

The 695 Biposto:

 

[Draggon]

While we're at it, what about a name Dick?

"Dick" is ok. I was in a lobby a couple months ago and wrote "dont be a dick" without thinking about the filter and it didn't get censored.

 

[sirjim73]

There seems to be an issue with shoes because it contains hoes. But do they actually mean hoes, hose or maybe O's as in "mon repose". My mind, of course went straight to this. Warning: you might keel over laughing

(I know I'm getting oldish, but honestly could anyone alive come up with something as funny as this?)

 

[zorrofox]

I made a livery for my Spanish friends called Blanco y Negro. Take a guess?

 

[Epic B]

I've experienced having the word "night" be turned into "*****". Don't know why that happens....

Presumably because of the first three letters.

As for the censoring of "hoes" and whatever is attached to that, I wonder why PD hates gardening so much.

[KepleroGT]

Also by the way i know my screenshot has a blackborder around it, if i max out the tv size setting on the ps4 i cant see the edges of the game text etc, anyone know how to get full screenshots without the border..

Do you have an "Adapt to screen" setting on your TV?

 

[Pigems]

The game sensors my new name, TPC_Pigems comes out as T****igems, I guess it’s picking up on PCP?

 

[MisterMR44]

It censors the word 'Nikon' (as in the camera manufacturer) and that's a Japanese brand. What must it think I'm trying to say...? "That girl's wearing a pair of frilly Nikons..."??

 

[watto79]

The same happens on my second account (although not always?). It was only reading this thread that I realised why! My second account name.......

GT_Watto

So presumably the game thinks everyone is calling me a ****.

 

[6BK]

The game sensors my new name, TPC_Pigems comes out as T****igems, I guess it’s picking up on PCP?

But it didn't censor "pig"?

@MisterMR44 Is Nikon censored because it is a major competitor of Sony?

 

[Trone_Colby]

Well can someone explain Nike? It gets censored when I used to make Nike liveries
