Can I use profanity in my game if I use a setting to change it's intensity?

alright we all know that profanity can spice up messages like:

“Tell me where it is.”
“Tell me where the F- it is!”

As you can see the message has been spiced up 1000 folds and so i wanna ask if i can use profanity if i use a basic intensity system like:

Intensity 1: “Tell me where it is”
Intensity 2: “Tell me where the hell it is.”
Intensity 3:" Tell me where the frick it is."
Intensity 4: “Tell me where the f##k it is.”
Intensity 5: “Tell me where the f##k it is m#########”

I suppose Intensity 4 and 5 is a bit too much but if I roughly censor the words like above would it still get me banned?

Intensity 2 should be fine, I’ve seen various games use it.

Intensity 3 might be alright? Depending on who you are, hell could be potentially worse.

This is not legal advise.

Afaik roblox doesn’t care about hell, ive had a similar idea of changing the intensity of curse words to use in dialogue but i think its too risky

I’d limit it to these:
“What the #### is that?”
“What the hell?”

You COULD try “###k” but idk if that catches the same vibe

Rise of the dead has fully censored swears in some dialogues. Not sure if it’s allowed or not, but they got away with it after fully tagged swears.
