Works fine for me and everyone else I know.

Turn it off in open chat it will affect it in crew and guild chat too.

Maybe the problem only exists if someone in guildchat has the + on? I don't know, I can't seem to figure it out. But my sentences with any of the words listed in OP will not get displayed in guild chat. My + is off by the way, problem is still there.

Sorry to hear it isn't working
When all else fails, submit a bug report and wait.

The guild chat bug has existed since beta days and is a real bug that they are aware of, but for whatever reason has not as of yet fixed. How do you know it isn't a setting but an actual bug? Because the words that cause your output not to show work in both crew chat and even open chat. Why on earth would you filter ONLY guild chat and leave the things people say to strangers in open without those filters?

I'm fine with the overactive filter with the use of numbers and anything that could refer to an email address or phone number. Have to protect the kids afterall, but m0 bug makes me want to put my keyboard through the wall sometimes.

As said in other threads on the same topic, just having your friends/guild mates all crew up on the same server solves the problem.

I found that you can't say the word lemon. Also, tomorrow (can't ever say to my friends "see you tomorrow") or the worde "more" (how many more ships do you need?) I always break up everything I type now, nothing is more frustrating than typing everything out just to find that because of ONE word nothing you have typed will go through!

So we end up creating a system where smart alecks spend all their time trying to figure out ingenious ways to type swear words in chat!

Wouldn't it make more sense to monitor and police each other?
Report offensive language or behaviour and risk deportation from the game?

and in return have a comfortable, easy to use chat system?

If 'mo' is in the word you can't say it.

[OutlawZ]

so, can someone point me to how to turn off the chat filter (in any manner)?
I can't seem to find that control.

It's not that easy.

First you need to be registered as an adult account. Log in here to easily check. https://register.go.com/go/login?app...rservices/home

Next, if you see a + sign in the chat bubble to the left of your chat type box, click it to get rid of it.

Even after that you'll have some filtering. Local is less restricted than crew and guild.

The filter is garbage. It shouldn't show that you said something if it omits it to everyone else. I always sit there waiting for a response, only to realize I said "most" in the message and nobody saw it.

[Jack Sunshot]

I find that the main problem in the chat is the fact that you can't use the letter "o". Other than that, I find that the chat is actually very free. There are a few things that you can't say in a phrase that you can say is two-word phrases. It's wierd. It needs to get better, but I can get by on what it is like now. Its better than VMK and Toontown, I'll give them that.

The chat filter is very strict. I mean I understand why they block out #'s (So you don't give out phone # / adress) but without #'s tring to explain how many you need for a quest or anything like that is nearly impossible. I need a skeleton ship and another and another and another. LOL

when I play my son's character I cant even say the names of people in the guild and this is a real pain as I end up having to try and split the name into allowed words with is really hard with some names.

even on my main charcter I get problem as mentioned with ' more ' and loads of other words that just stop the sentence that I spent 1-2 mins typing from not apearing !

what is even more of a pain is because my son doesn't always get spellings right his chat gets blocked more than mine as words that are not spelled correctly just get blocked.
