Censored for some reason?

I'm not really sure but I think the word "Grounds" is censored for some weird reason because I once created a map and named it training grounds and it was also censored

 

Quite possibly the greatest post ever

 

These things aren't censored by Bungie but by Microsoft.

 

Occasionally Ill get map names censored and I couldn't figure out why. But then I realised I started Forge whilst I was online, and my connection dropped out while I was in the game. After I was done I went to save it and it wouldn't let me, but after I reconnected it let me save the name I wanted. Its either a glitch or a safeguard, but either way, its annoying as hell.

If the problem persists, just try Forging and saving your map while you're online and see if that works.

 

Along with "Ground" I believe, I have been trying to figure out why I couldn't name my map prototype "Pathways Ground Floor"

 

Well now that answers a very old question of mine...

 

I think this is the reason right here. It happened to me yesterday. I was online when I went to forge. My connection dropped, but I still saved the map occasionally while forging. I exited forge while disconnected and the message "Your map is now called 'Blam!'" ( in a nutshell). I reselected my map (still having it's original title), went into forge seeing if things still saved (they did) and then saved just to be safe. Problem solved

But one things I did notice while I was taking screenshots for Retribution (my map) I can't name the screenshot "Blue Base" otherwise it would not upload to "Recent Screenshots" on Bungie's site.

 

Indeed. The quoted post is from a while ago, though still amusing IMO.

Specifically, the filter is applied to all user-created content on Xbox Live. It suffers from the Scunthorpe problem, it checks across word boundaries, and the person managing it is intellectually subhuman at best.

Or, in more human-readable terms:

"Assault", "grape", "basement", "grass", "****inson", and similar terms are blocked because they contain naughty words, but aren't themselves naughty;

"All skulls except", "if a goal", and similar phrases are blocked, because when the spaces are removed, there are profanities;

"Basic", "glitch", "ground", "base", "epic", "mystery", "puzzle", and countless others are blocked because Micro$oft hires people with severe mental deficiencies.

So to avoid the filter, you need to avoid using words that contain other words inside of them; you need to watch the order of your words; and you need to avoid using the English language.

Oh, and don't expect a fix. As long as it doesn't interfere with Micro$oft making money, they won't do anything about it. You can feel free asking 343i via the Waypoint Forums, but they don't care either. All we can do is rage.

 

If I remember correctly, "puzzle" is blam'd out.
