Profanity Filter Bugs

(Before replying something like “Please don’t revive old topics” or whatever, just link me to the old topic or tell me if this bug is being fixed because I don’t have time to look through an entire forum)

I am unable to start a custom game in mcc on the pc. No matter what I choose for the game title, it says “do not use profanity”. This is fine I guess on its’ own, but when I am required to change the name of my custom variant, the dialogue box won’t even let me just use the default option of ‘custom variant’ as somehow thats considered profane too. I can’t leave the box blank, I can’t get any other name under the sun to work, and I can’t even simply type in a period. Apparently the algorithm for detecting profanity considers all ASCII characters profane.

Anyways, like I said above I’d really appreciate someone showing me how to fix this or simply let me know if this bug is being addressed. If the topic is old or whatever link me to the old one so I can see if / how monitors dealing with this. Thank you.
