The italics filter in that regard, is about 50 million times better than the old plus chat filter.

Ah ha left out the apostrophe hehe .
I understand the filter and the fact that it IS somewhat better than before ... when the entire line was censored. I just know from talking/chatting with the +chat kids that they find it frustrating to chat to get help. And it is frustrating for me to try to understand what type of help they need. I just think it could be a very simple program tweak to have the pirate names/guilds and islands able to be typed so everyone could read them. Remember that some of these kids aren't good spellers or typers to begin with. I've even had problems typing something simple as "I need to kill 5 Navy Soldiers" (and of course rumrunners - LOL) the word "kill" seems to be the problem word ... so I've gotten use to saying Keel - LOL - also you can't type De Porc - LOL you have to type it as De Pork.
