Firecracker Sam is scurvy dog
I am curious, though. Are people's region of residence going to be taken into consideration? There are people on the game that are from Europe, Asia, and Australia and what might be profane language in the United States may not be in these other countries/regions.

For example, I'm from England (currently living in the United States) and there are many words and expressions that Americans find offensive that I don't, and vice versa. I quite often, because of my culture, use the expression "Bloody H**L." Its not uncommon for me to get scolded for my use of "H**L" despite that its not in the context that Americans seem to think it is.

Because I happen to use that expression, would I get a warning?

It may be helpful for a list of "banned" words to get published so that people can be aware that they are taboo ahead of time and not punished for typing them in chats.
