So, I just watched someone leave the server because of the language filters, and I don't really blame them. It's a great server, great plugins, great hosting, great system, a large playerbase, etc.
The lack of freedom on language sucks though, if it weren't for how great everything else is I would leave as well. It's a little too extreme.
I'd love to see a section of the server where there is a freedom on content. It wouldn't be hard to implement, just make a "/ch ma" or something of the like where people can speak without the harsh language restrictions. I'm not talking carte blanche to start throwing racial slurs around, but as of now even talking about current events can get stifled(For example, I was told not to talk about the Boston Marathon on the day that went down), it's a bit overbearing. A channel for people who aren't easily offended and want to talk about something besides their McMMO levels would be great.
If you want to be extra careful about it you can even put a password on the channel to make sure a kid or someone with delicate sensibilities doesn't accidentally join it. I don't think it'd be too hard to implement, it would be nice for a lot of people in the playerbase and it could even save the mods the trouble of constantly having to police language and content in the main channel.
