Bill beating entire hard things is not against TOS, but the word coward is. That's my streaming company!

Nor Dog beating whole hard things either. Honestly, it's weird that Twitch didn't highlight that specific text box, and just put a generic error on top. You'd never know which part was causing issues.

Pretty sure Twitch blocked the word cowards during a wizards of the coast reveal stream where wotc was being destroyed in the chat. In immediate response chat switched to “Wizards can’t block warriors” in reference to a Magic card with the effect “Cowards can’t block warriors.”

For the people who are actually worth engaging in discussion that isn't street violence- it's to make it harder to work around the censors. Censors can be propagandic in nature, but unless you consider banning slurs propoganda (which is probably why they used such a loaded word), twitch TOD isn't propaganda. The only issue is the erratic nature of Twitch TOS, resulting in the banning of utterly harmless terms.

[@3st3st77]

These algorithms are great. I once had some Yugioh game on my phone that would check my deck names for inappropriate words. I was playing the game in German and it would censor the most random words (like Wasser, meaning water). Turns out it exclusively checked for English swear words. I ended up calling that deck "f*ck you hard" in German which was apparently more appropriate.

[@HuskyTorchiks]

Censor algorithms are so funny, I remember when the algorithm for Duel LInks got updated at some point when I was still playing it and had a deck that was just the name of the structure deck Synchro Connection and opened it one day and saw that some part of it got censored and died laughing, don't know why it was but I think something in "Connection" triggered it.

[@classymuffin4589]

I often can't use my gamertag "The Classy Muffin" because "Muffin" has "Muff" in it, which is slang for a woman's privates.

[@MaskedDeath_]

When my friends got me to try Genshin Impact, I very quickly realized the chat is censored to hell. An idea immediately came to mind, and I tried typing the name of an in-game location - Starsnatch Cliff. As expected, "snatch" got censored. Again, it's literally the name of a location in the game.

The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Bill's Snivel & Drivel", where snivel and drivel both end in the sound "--ivel", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Bill. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck".

[@nettogames4268]

Actually fuming at this. This is a relatively harmless example of a harmful trait of these platforms. It's smart enough to identify the problematic part of the text, so it should ABSOLUTELY be able to tell you where the problem is. Maybe it takes too much effort and resources to tell you exactly what word it is, but is it too much to ask to be pointed to the rule it breaks so we can understand wtf the problem is?

[@VestinVestin]

Think of it this way: if a husband only beats his wife when she does something out of a predictable set of bad things or doesn't do something out of a set of good things, she can figure it out and obediently follow the rules. However, if he randomly beats her even when everything seems fine and she ultimately has no idea what she's done wrong, she'll live in constant fear and try to please him with every action, desperately trying to anticipate his every desire and whim to avoid getting beaten. The same applies to Twitch. I hope this helps...
