    it is kind of silly because it censors my in-game name, which is the same as my name here

    It’s not really a free speech problem as it is a problem trying to balance being able to chat in game vs the need to censor certain words or patterns to keep it appropriate

    The issue isn’t free speech, it’s that I can’t type the following without it nuking the whole sentence.

    “Do you know player123? He was previously in your alliance”.

    You don't know what "free speech" means.

    While it's not a "free speech" issue, their censoring algorithm (or whatever you want to call it) goes overboard sometimes. I've had actual champion names get censored at times, which is hilarious. When someone was cheating in my alliance and I had to kick them, I couldn't put out a "We don't accept cheating!" message in the alliance chat because the word "cheating" got censored. I've been unable to warn my mates that exploiting a bug or something might get them banned, because something in there got the whole message censored.

    It's annoying. But it's still not a free speech issue. I never went to prison over it.

    Kabam has an AI that gathers data to determine what words and phrases are bad and which aren't. It isn't the greatest at actually getting the bad words, but I have fun with the not bad words that it censors. In my global, you can't say "galan is" for whatever reason. Makes it very hard if you're talking about galan.
