WEB-6252Some very bizarre words being blocked by Mojang's filter
Just wanted to report that Mojang's offensive language filter (specifically for usernames) appears to be having some real issues. Due to the Scunthorpe effect, words like knight, or grasshopper are blocked of course, but that's somewhat understandable, they do contain offensive language in the word. What's weird is that the filter is also blocking words like game, extra, and armchair.
