The current system is incredibly broken, we all know this.
This may just be me but I was trying to tell my friend through the chat feature that I had turned teamcreate on so that we could work on a game together but the filtering hashtagged the entire message because of the word "teamcreate", so you apparently now can't even mention the names of important features.
Oh and god forbid that you say numbers, because there are totally no situations in which a sentence including numbers isn't going to include phone numbers. Heck, in the chat I can't even say the word "number" in the chat without it being censored.
Even if you're on a 13+ account, there's quite a lot of words considered to be clean that you're forbidden from saying.
In addition, there is literally no point in filtering the names of alchoh- oh sorry I mean "beverages that only grown-ups may drink". Just because someone says the name of one it doesn't mean they're going to go drink one. And even if they do it's the parent's problem not yours.
So with that rant out of the way, here's my two suggestions:
1. Go back to the old blacklist system, it's a lot more effective and accurate than this abomination of an automated filtering system.
2. Allow 13+ accounts to say some of the words that are on said blacklist, so see how I mentioned those "beverages that only grown-ups may drink"? I believe that 13+ accounts should be able to say the names of them.
