TNT Violates Own Rules on New Game

[SierraRaven]

Has anybody else noticed that the vocabulary list used on Typing Terror contains some questionable words? Several of these words will get you frozen or at least warned if used on the Neoboards. I think it's rather ironic that TNT uses the words in their new game, when they don't allow us to use them on the site.

Btw, this new game rocks! I really enjoy it - I'm just not sure some of the words are appropriate.

Yeah, I saw Queerest and was like "You can't say thaaaat!"
Good game though. One word I had to type was Warcraft.

There's nothing wrong with the word queer. It's just that it's acquired a second slang meaning that's not so great.

No, there's nothing wrong with the word "queer" or "gay" (which is also in the Typing Terror game). However, my point is this: if we were to use those words on the Neoboards, guild boards, or Neomail, we would be warned or frozen for inappropriate language.

Yeah, the double-standard there is not good.

However, don't all those typing games use words from user-submitted dictionaries?

I had the word "Naked", "virgin" and I've had a lot of other questionable words... what really ticks me off is that my main account just got frozen the other day for an inappropriate username "bornagainvirgin"

[Crimsonmon]

I got 'muff'...

[Weewoo]

Yeah, they're all taken from a dictionary. I got Neochat earlier. That brought back memories.

[jellyoflight]

I suppose it's whatever's in the 'dictionary' - I got a questionable word in evil thade. It could probably be taken in the sense of a 'shag carpet', but...:/

[puck]

...i just got 'jihad'

[Duke of Earl]

There's absolutely nothing wrong with jihad...

This was already mentioned over in the games forum.

The least they could do is put filters on it! Its not fair to people who get frozen for inappropriate names, and yet they're putting this rubbish in!

[Johnnydontgo]

I got "whiskey". Yeah. Who input these words in their dictionary?!

[Anoohilator]

I'm gonna play this just to see what words I get

[Divine]

Lol! This is funny... I just got Bum. (not really that inappropriate, but its just funny)
