Due to a recently processed sanction, we have looked into the swearkick logs and decided that it is about time we put an end to that particular shortcut. For a time now the swearkick filter was used to quickly disconnect from the server due to various reasons. While this is a neat feature, especially if the player is lagging - it is an exploit of a mechanic that discourages swearing.
This is a warning and a heads up that the machanic will be changed to banning the account, rather than kicking it. So please reconsidering trying to do this, before you will find yourself posting under the Account Banned thread and trying to explain why did you feel it was necessary for big black bodyparts appearing in your chatlog.

Don't make it ban accounts. Unsuspecting rookies experimenting with it may be getting the axe for no reason, and more work for the green peeps. Make it so that it doesn't kick you. Just doesn't display the swear word.

Actually the best idea. Make it not kick anyone at all, just be a filter.

Would second this. Getting accidentally banned for some profanity that didn't even get displayed would suck.
I can kind of agree with this, but at the same time I remember repeatedly getting kicked from the server for trying to say cockpit at some point. I dont think it's the case anymore but I'd be kind of concerned about people getting banned for similar things.
The swearfilter not having any action will be considered. Thank you for the input.
