When DAOC launched, our exec. producer insisted that we force everyone to use our wildly overdone profanity filter at all times. (He was special that way.) We talked him out of it when it turned out that it was also working on item names. In our medieval fantasy game. Which had many bastard swords.

Pseudoscorpion posted:Pfft, you're telling me - this entire conversation started from "I've got a potential interview at an MMO company! Joy!" Every MMO team takes bets on when the new guy's hopes, dreams and spirit are crushed into a pile of goo. This just started early! Speaking of which, I'm learning an entirely new level of pain - working on a *crowdfunded* MMO.

Jan posted:If it's the same crowdfunded MMO I'm thinking of, there's also the great fun of coordinating 4+ different studios working on it? haha no, though I know a lot of the guys on it. I was hired as a designer by Richard Garriott 2 weeks after he gave an interview proclaiming that all designers not him sucked. Now I get to work for thousands of backers, all of whom want different things VERY PASSIONATELY and all of whom hate each other as only people on MMO forums can.
