Is text filtering required for non-replicated text?

Lets say that I’m implementing a journal system in my project. The player can submit entries to the journal that only they can see, the journal will never be exposed to another player. Do I need to filter the text?

I would do it just to in case, they could somehow abuse reporting system, especially if the players have something personal against you :skull:

Nope, it’s not needed.

Additionally, you also don’t need to filter text if it goes off-platform.

You still need to use FilterStringAsync() if it’s being saved.
