Topic: 3DS friend list message censoring weirdness?

Posts 1 to 20 of 46

I'm making this thread to find out what words that aren't curses, slurs, etc. that the friend list considers inappropriate language and blocks. One time, I typed in "BARF", imitating the one character from River City Ransom, and it blocked it! Barf seems pretty innocent (unless it blocks any reference to a bodily function). The thing that I marveled at yesterday is that I was posting a message saying "Remember 9/11." It considered 9/11 inappropriate language!!! I changed it to 8/11 and it accepted it. Even stranger, it accepted 9-11! What seemingly innocent words/numbers has it blocked for you? Obviously only going for things unoffensive that the friend list blocking is a head-scratcher.

There is one word I know the 3rd friends list won't let you say... And that word is 1,000,000

It's pretty annoying. My name, Conner, is blocked.

Why do people point to their wrists when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

@TheKingofTown It blocks your name? Is it actually secretly a profane word?

I've known my name "Mick" get blocked in some games as it can be a derogatory term in Ireland...

Not sure about the friends list. I go by Digger Dan on there.

"Hit" gets blocked.

So I can't gloat about my streetpass hits.

It is also impossible to write @.

I wrote "#hashtag" and it got blocked. I wrote "hashtag" without the hashtag(#) and it still got blocked.

I just put hit down and it didn't get blocked

Its the end of "pass" and the full word of "hit".

You cant type "Obi Wan Kenobi".

(insert witty signature here)

Oh hey it's true, it actually blocks the "pass hit" part of "X streetpass hits".

For some reason, Lol I think it has something to do with the last "s" and "hit", still it's weird to see it block a Nintendo-used term.

I put in "Thedreaminghawk" and it blocked it due to the part "Reaming". What's wrong with that?

"Reaming" is a new word for me, but google just gave me an idea of why it might be wrong.

On a slightly unrelated note: Mega Man 9 blocks "Sigma".
