The reason I want moderators to be strict with this, is because if we would allow people to avoid the word filter in some situations, but not in others, it would create a lot of confusion and discussion. Therefore I have decided that is NEVER allowed to avoid the word filter, even if you don't mean it bad.

This means when you really feel you have to use a word that is filtered, you just have to find a way around it, by using other words that are not filtered.

All that a Habbox staff member can do in a situation like this, is take it up with their manager, and ultimately with me. This is also what happened. But in the end they still have to follow our rules. If we allow staff to go against our guidelines and use their own judgement, it would be too much work to deal with all the different situations.

So if you have a problem with how our moderators work, don't blame them, but understand that it's the management and ultimately me that decides on these guidelines.
