| So, there has been a rise of people insulting each other by calling another player 'autistic'. It is a serious mental illness and even though this is the internet, it's not 4chan. If you don't believe we should censor this because of discussions, you shouldn't be having a serious discussion on TMM. You should be enjoying yourselves. It is mainly used as an insult, and that's all there is to it. |

Autism is over exaggerated, and it really isn't worth caring about. Most autistic people are pretty normal. They just say they have it for attention.

By removing any way of saying it in ROBLOX, you basically remove any possible acknowledgement of people with autism.
Basically if we do this in ROBLOX autism would basically be considered nonexistent.
I admit people using it as an insult is wrong, but there's a good and bad to everything. You can't eliminate the bad without eliminating the good, so... yeah.
That was my serious response, here's my unserious one:

"Please don't be to hard on him/her he's autistic" "(S)he seems autistic, but she's not" "But using autistic as a insult, please."
^ Those sound like insults? |

| This ENTIRE thread is turning out to be a walking example of what I'm talking about. And yes, while there is a difference between good and bad, most people are using it for bad purposes. Everyone here is looking for a quick way to get offended, and it's bugging me. |

Autism is actually a pretty serious condition, and there's a good chance your child will have it, as the percentage of people diagnosed with it has been increasing with each generation.
But censoring does nothing. In most games I can say basically whatever I want and it's not censored or safe chattered or whatever. Even if it is censored people will just say: "Aut*stic" or some variation of that as that basically allows young players to bypass all safe chattering. |

support, though people joke about cancer on the internet all the time and nobody does anything about it.
Also it's not a mental illness. It's a disability.

at cyber but it can help prevent possible bullying. some words are just best left unseen.
oh yeah and cancer cant really be used as an insult, unless you're telling someone to go die of cancer, than i see your point. |

"You're a cancer patient. Ha ha"
That could be used as a joke. Any word can be used against someone. That doesn't mean Roblox terminates the chat system entirely. You can't pretend a word doesn't exist by censoring it. |
