*** not allowed in AlphaJax

arCaptainMorgan · Jun 1, 2016

The word *** cannot be used on AlphaJax because it is deemed as hateful? The word has many different meanings and if you (the production team or whomever makes these decisions) give precedence to the derogatory definition then it is
you who are being hateful. What if I was to tell you that I am gay and you not allowing that word offends me? I for one will find another word game to play!

Has microsoft censored some words? because alphajax and the alphajax ENABLED are arguing

Ok so since when has '****' not been allowed? It is in the AlphaJax dictionary and has denied me a 74 point word. 'EPOXIES' also spelling '****'

And I've just discovered that 'dux' is not allowed. Why ever not????? In my part of the English speaking world, the top student in the school is the dux. Wiktionary agrees with this definition. Why does alphajax reject this word?

Zurtrogx exploits a bug in Alphajax to allow him to fool the system into thinking that his opponent hasn't played a move in over a week, thus giving him the ability to force the opponent's resignation. He vehementy (and falsely) denies this in his posts
although many Alphajax users have experienced his tactic.

The only solution I have, other than the developers fixing this bug, is to reject invitations from him until he desists from cheating.

So, why are most of the words which are banned in Alphajax allowed to be used in Wordament?

Quite seriously, this is a developer which you should never use again. Especially with Microsoft's name attached to the app. Censorship is never ever a good thing. EVER!

So does this mean there isn't a published list of words AlphaJax accepts, just the ENABLE subset from 2000 without the AlphaJax-added extras up to July 2014?
