check glitch/zenith font for bad words (†̵̱̓h̸̦͝ï̸̯̀§̵̛̣)

among_us1w2

the font can be used to evade the filter (character overload) and put anything you want without the filter even existing.
can be done using average (PURPLE ICON WEBSITE) filter.
pros:
no broken filter
cons:
some think it looks cool.

the filter has a lot of problems with nlp where it shouldn't

You can still bypass the filter in many other ways such as using cyrillic letters

So, the best system is to add a filter that filters foreign unicode letters that are very similar to latin letters and if put in a word with other latin letters, it will count it as a latin letter and check if it is appropriate or not. That was my suggestion but I lost it.

Adding it to the censor list is actually rejected

The Scratch Team has decided that these words are not offensive enough to be censored completely. As always, use the Report button if someone is using these words (or any others) disrespectfully. In addition, if you come across a word that is not censored, but you think it should be, please let the Scratch Team know about it through Contact Us, rather than using the comments or forums to report it.

There is an existing suggestion that would allow you to personally censor these words, and others, so that only you cannot see them; you can discuss it on this topic.

Yet it’s censored?
What?
Does anybody know why?

no support. zalgo text is really nice, and banning it won't solve the problem of bypassing the filter. tbh, it's really hard to read zalgo text(and it takes up a lot of characters), so when there are other, readable methods, why would anyone use zalgo?
my point is, there are already thousands of methods to bypass the filter. Banning the one method that no one uses and doesn't even work properly won't solve it.

Support for that reason. this can be used to evade filters.

How would we differentiate these fonts from the Sanskrit and Greek alphabet?? These font generators insert Unicode sequences which exist in non-ASCII languages. Blocking this font would basically block regular language, wouldn't it?

It's because of the DjangoBB filter, they can't easily change it.

Yea actually that could be a problem.

I wish we could keep spooky text, and you basically report if it bypasses it maybe they mean just the English alphabet.
Without bias I semi support
With bias I don't (:

Why haven't they uncensored crap and damn, or censored discord? ☠️ (or remove filerbypasses like I just did)

Ok, maybe. I think the problem is that this isn't commonly used as a filter bypass. I, therefore, suggest that the filter bot would instead convert it to regular letters and then censor it. That was if it was used in an ok manner then they wouldn't be muted. That way, I could use them in a regular manner.

No support, Zalgo text is basically near unreadable, so it's not useful for bypassing filters, because you can't even read what bypassed words you typed. Also, what'd happen with the content with the Zalgo text if this suggestion is added?
