I am yet to steal my parents' credit cards to use em for online gaming. I always name my companies Fat & Furious, ETS2 had nothing against it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_87 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Is this a serious thread? Can't find other stories about fines like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afro_Gear Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) This post is on the first page of Google searches when you search for "GTA V Profanity Fine". Can't find anything that talks about it. Will need proof if this is real. All there is is a filter: "To check if the words included in the list are really banned, Kotaku jumped into the game and typed some of them out in the in-game text messaging screen; the result was a message, displayed in the screenshot below, that reads “forbidden text. Try again.” Source: https://wccftech.com/list-banned-words-gta-online-sony-microsoft/ Edited November 11, 2019 by Afro_Gear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the action of trying to type profanities tied to your attempt at creating a GTAO Org? or did you just get the notification around the same time for possibly trying to type something else in chat / in-game naming elsewhere at a different time?

I mean I just tried to type fat and furious while naming my organisation, clicked ok then that info popped up saying something about me trying to type profanities and took 50k from my account. I don't know if it has to do anything with it but I was at the hairdresser's in sandy shores then lol. Best thing is I checked and my organisation is actually called Fat and Furious so now I'm even more confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reiner- Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Rockstar is hypocritical when it comes to what you can use for a name. In RDR2 I tried to name my horse (which was white) Cracker but that was deemed profanity even though you can buy, sell and loot crackers in the game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quink666 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 In RDR2 SINGLEPLAYER i tried naming my horse in Queef instead of Queen but couldn't.... They have idiotic profanity filters in their games, even in SP where no one else will ever see the names of you horses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Stellaris, I couldn't name my torpedo fighters "torpedo", while it's wildly used during the game, for "profanity" reasons. I let you figure what imbecile hot words programming led to that, took me a while... And in Rugby Challenge 3, I was prevented for the same reasons to name a custom player Temuera Paratene, which would be a perfectly valid name (combo of first and last names of two actors from New Zealand I happen to like). For this one, looked like it was the Paratene bit that was considered rude, but FML I can't figure what's supposed to be "wrong" with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
