Word censorship - Good or bad?

I've faced countless problems since the new censorship was added to pretty much anything you do on MS (chat, store permit title and stuff). Most part of these words/sentences aren't intentionally bad, like "B> sweetH20" (can't even type the real word here), "what game company?", "whisper me"... But, how good or how bad is that? I don't believe censoring a couple words should give better manners to us and specially to young ones. What are your thoughts on that?

Nah, that's not a big problem for me either. It's just bad when you have to retype stuff over and over because an "improvement" they made to the game. I just feel there's no need to censor words. You'll have to deal with it in life. Even your uncle or grandpa spit more bad words than Maplers...

Hate to be this guy, but just play the game and adapt to changes. Its a very minor "problem" and they have bigger issues to deal with.

Why not just have an option to take off censors? They're useless anyway.

better than having to retype the sentence again and figure out where the bad word was under the old censor system

Having an "adult" option on you account to allow such words to be displayed once your age is over 16 or something would help a lot. The thing is: Nexon accounts are 13+. Where in the world a 13yo kid can't read this stuff? That's the internet we're talking about, not a 90's TV show.

It's bad... They need to get rid of it...

Nexon knows that the player base is on the older side nowadays yet they still won't remove it...
The way the censoring is now it can actually help you find bad words inside normal everyday conversations.

Yeah, it's silly. I will say that it is better than the first system though

Well I think that Waltzing had told us that they are trying to improve the way the censorship system works
