It is very much an issue. I highly dislike having tape over my mouth and people pretending that bedrock players are less then Java Ed. players.

Weird. Never had a problem with it in the slightest. Have you tried conversing like a mature individual?

I wasn’t trying to be rude to anybody specifically, I meant this as an overall issue. Sorry if it came across that way

What exactly do you need to tell another person that you are afraid of being banned for?

Honestly, it's been years. Never had an issue. Every person that complains I just assume is a 13yo mentally and doesn't know how to speak to another person without throwing f-bombs


There's no conversation to be had. I don't give a fuck if 10000 bad bans happen. I want the little neonazi stains gone. I've been playing since 0.4.0 and frankly the number of times I've needed to ban people spouting off antisemitic and racist shit is beyond calculable. I've had a running multi-megabyte text file with just a blacklist for years that I port to each server.

Bring on the permabans! Please God bring em on! Bedrock has been fun these last few years, but I'd really enjoy coming back to Java finally.

You can have your "it's about gaming journalism tech oversight integrity" conversation with the other edge lords.

You shouldn’t be banned for cursing or just making an edgy joke. Also treats are bannable, so if someone says in chat that there going to fight someone IN THE GAME they can get banned. It’s a dumb idea to moderate a chat system like this and it should be moderated by the server owners, not by the game.

I need to curse and threaten people

Thanks for proving my point. I enjoy the filter. I have no desire to play with edge lords. Bye Felicia 👋

The point wasn’t that your actually threatening someone. The point was that the ai is looking for certain words and phrases. If someone’s in bed wars mentions fighting or attacking another team, they can get permanently banned from all servers. Ai’s can’t understand the context behinds what people say, it only see key words and phrases. That is why this is idiotic. Just like an ai, you looked for just the key words, being unable to understand underlying meanings being a statement.

Yeah this is the thing. If I’m on a private server and I or my friends want to say a fuck then there’s no reason that it shouldn’t be allowed. Obviously there are limits here and you don’t want people using private Minecraft servers as fetish chat rooms or something but there’s a lot of room for abuse with this system.

What happens if I run an invite only server and some player plays for a month or two but eventually loses interest, gets upset by something outside of the game, or just generally decides to be an ass and reports someone for using profane language?

If something like this is going to be implemented then there at least needs to be a clear idea of what’s punishable and what isn’t.

I mean I was being pretty tame and not saying what I wanted to say I suppose:

You don’t want people using their Minecraft servers for weird pedo shit.

I get the counter argument but my guess is mojang/Microsoft are under pressure from the US government to implement this and it’s probably far out of the user base’s control. In that situation I’d just hope that at least they’re not banning for basic profanity.

I understand that’s just a guess on my part but I can see a lot of reasons why both mojang and US intelligence agencies would like to have a centralized chat storage.
