I, like many others, would like for swearing in party chats to become legal. Cubecraft has a very child-friendly and protective atmosphere. Minecraft is, after all, a children's game, and that can be frustrating for the mature audience that Cubecraft has acquired. I would like to offer a suggestion that both keeps mature audiences happy, whilst maintaining its protection over younger audiences.
Sadly, my /itemname and /itemlore commands are broken at the moment, but hopefully you get the idea from the limited visual presentation above. In the Settings GUI, players will be able to either enable or disable the chat filter in parties only. This means that if players wish, they may choose for filtered words to be asterisked (****) when typed by either themselves or by another player. If the filter is disabled, then filtered words will be displayed as they are written, and not asterisked. The filter will be enabled by default, meaning players must consciously consent to exposing themselves to mature language and any other content restricted by the filter.
There is unanimously a heavy demand for this. Source: https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/fix-the-new-update.200731/
Edit: People will swear no matter what, because you cannot block every possible bypass. At least let those who are going to swear regardless do it in an enclosed environment, where people won't be offended by it. If they can't swear in party chat, they're just going to do it in public chat.
Edit #2: Keep certain words, that can only be used in offensive contexts, disabled regardless. We want freedom, not vulgarity.
Update:
Requesting a lock on this thread in light of new information. Basically, Cubecraft Games is partnered by Mojang (the company behind Minecraft), and they want to be able to hold their affiliates to a professional standard, one that keeps their game as welcoming to all ages as possible. In consequence, it's unlikely that we'll ever see a relaxation of the chat rules in-game. The people I wanted to see this thread would have without a doubt seen it already, and their lack of response says what we were hoping wouldn't be the case; our efforts are in vain. There's little reason to keep this thread alive anymore, as it now only serves to cast the forum's community as divided and bothersome.
Thanks to everybody who supported the thread, but we lost this one :/
