Open Chat = no arr or garr when only Open Chat users are around you, in crew with you, or in Guild with you. However, if a Speed Chat Plus pirate is standing within view of your compass, in crew with you, or in guild with you, your Open Chat will be blocked from going through if it contains any words not in the white list. It will be blocked without warning, it will look like the message was sent, but nobody will receive it. (So if you feel you are being ignored, make sure your chat does not have any italicized words in it)

As for the filtering part, that is not true. That is what it used to be if there were speedchat people nearby. Now, just the word gets filtered as arrr yarr garr. That is if the word is not in their dictionary. If it is on their "black list" then the whole speech you sent does not go through to ANYONE, regardless of open or speedchat.
On a slightly side note, am I the only one that things Speedchat (not Speedchat Plus) harms the game? Some people downgrade their child to using Speedchat, which makes it so that they can ONLY enter phrases that are prewritten (the list of speech phrases for quests, sea combat, etc). If someone who is Speedchat is following you, you can't tell them to go away because they won't get the chat. You can't say anything to them except for things like "Shiver Me Timbers!". Is it just me, or does this harm the nonSpeedchat players? I've had a few encounters with them, and it is really hard communicating.
