Party text chat blocking

not sure if this has been posted before, or if I'm missing something, but I just noticed they block
"ho a" to read "xxxa" (I was trying to type "who are you"). This makes no sense to me.

They also just started blocking "wtf" [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Oh BTW I think that they x'ed out "who are you" because it spells "whore".

I typed out exactly what I said though also:
"ho a" and it censored that typing

it x'ed out "who is" for me. also even more intriguing to me is that they no longer x out "gus hanson"

I couldn't type circumstance because it has "cum" in the word. CirCOMEstance is fine, of course. This is starting to border on Naziist burning books type of censorship. CIRCUMSTANCE??? COME ON. Isn't Party restricted only to adults anyway? What is their story for being such holy rollers...this is GAMBLING, right?

But strangely they aren't blocking ffs! It is wierd that acronyms are now counted as swear words.

Very odd to see very common words with a group of X's in the middle.
