If you search a player’s username that is filtered it won’t turn up:
I was searching up the user Ogbobbyjohnson6789, but I couldn’t get to profile because it kept on censoring his username. Ik there’s a function for it, but I usually go to a player’s profile to grab their UserId.
Honestly, this filtering issue is getting out of hand now. Normal conversations in game = impossible, searching up certain groups/people that have normal names = impossible. It’s driving me insane
Literally just came here to post a bug report but you’ve beaten me to it, I found a user in-game who sent me a friend request so I decided to check up his profile, he’s called “ILoveMacandcheese2” and that was filtered as can be seen by this URL:
Any update on this? My friend has his username hash-tagged even though his name is perfectly clean. Very annoying when people are trying to search him up.
Definitely agree with this, don’t see why they would approve usernames when a player makes their account just to tag it later when someone searches up their name…? Either way, as others have said, a player’s searches are only seen by themselves. Why in the world would they need to tag it?
Locking because this is a heavily duplicated topic that has been discussed and thoroughly justified already.
Consider referring to this thread instead, and reading other linked threads to gain an understanding of why this filter is in place:
