Is quoting Wikipedia now banned on Lemmy? I was under impression arsehole censoring mods here were mostly focused on removing mentions of Israeli genocide of Palestinians.

Bots will automatically remove certain words regardless of context.

I used to see this all the time in the old Sega game "Phantasy Star Online" where objectionable chat was replaced with "*".

So "Nice shoes!" became "Nice s****!"

You couldn't arrange to play a game on "Sa****ay".

And god help you if you lived in a "ba*****t".

Same problem but when I migrated from Black Ops 1 to Modern Warfare 2 or something similar - couldn't name my class containing assault rifles "assault"
