Mute gone Too far

Pizza is good,  has something from all the major food groups
crust (grain and dairy), Tomato sauce (fruits and vegtables), pepperoni, sausage, ham (meat) pineapple (more from fruits and vegtables), and in germany they put tuna fish on pizza :eek:

Just add Beer (more grain to offset all them vegtables) to wash all those vitamins down.
Pizza the perfect food.

LOL no you can't!  I got a 3 minute mute the other night for trying to type "10Bears, those are some big bellybutton mountains!"  For crying out loud!

Normally I dont like Pizza Hut, but their Chicago Style is differant.

They might not advertise it, but it is the one pizza not made in the store, but rather shipped to them in cases of 24.  It is reminiscient of a Noble Romans Sicilian style pizza.  Give it a try.

Unos of Chicago makes a great pizza, as does Genos in Chicago, but I dont get there enough anymore to get an original.

But Flossy,  then we wouldn't have had this kool conversation on the dietary merits of pizza and which arena you can say "ass" in.

Besides it was funny reading Turbot talk to himself at the beginning.

While the anony-jerks DO need some serious policing, I doubt if this was one of them.  Last I heard they only have power in the MA.

It appears the word "ass" has been added to the bad word filter.  I once got a 10minute mute from an anony-jerk for explaining to a 109 what a handsomehunk he was to stop his defensive manuevering (2 friendlies engaged with him) to go after a lowly Il2 that was playing with gv's.  Insta-mute from one of the anony-jerks.  The mute time  passed, said something to the effect of the 109 driver was a handsomehunk at that time, and is handsomehunk now a keyword for the anony-jerks and promptly got muted by him again.  /shrug oh well.

And in the MA you can tell if it's the script or an anony-jerk that gets ya... the script gives ya a warning.  Course that only applies to the first warning.... ya get muted after that it's either or.

Though something interesting about the filtering of "ass"... it doesn't seem you'll get muted for the 2nd time you say it.... I tried to say it a couple of times in the MA and got a warning both times.

That is a little excessive.  We're all adults here.  You think OUR language is bad, you should hear how WWII pilots and commanders talk!  If you ask me, foul language truly captures the fighting spirit of the air warrior.

What does a stupid word filter protect us from? Does it extinct the words it matches? It just achieves some hilarious games with abreviations and variations of a few select words. It's not like the content of this game is a Sunday afternoon tea party with grandma.
It's a game and it's a competion. It's about WW2 planes trying to kill each other (albeit in a non-lethal arcade form). It get's emotional like every competion gets. All the filter does is to provide an annoying form of censorship and censorship is imho a sign of weakness. Who needs that thing. Get rid of it and save a few lines of code ;)
And if you really have to keep the text buffer clean at least get rid of the mute. Just filter the words. Anyone seen 'Demolition Man' ? The little ticket machines lol.
