Banned for saying words that didn't even pop up on anyone's screen. Man... I hate how Disney bans you for saying bad words to yourself. Ah well... I'll be back in three days :\

Why would you type them? They keep a log of everything we say, to others or not. I'm quite sure certain things get flagged.

If in doubt keep it to yourself.

Might want to watch it. Banned too many times and one of these times they may not let you come back at all.

Eck! Hope it's not too painful for you!

You should keep them to yourself...or type "BLANKITY BLANK BLANK BLANK"

Bleh, its just a habit :\ my friends like that too and she says that stuff rarely. Meh, hope I can keep this stuff to myself more often

How soon after you say the bad stuff do you get banned? Anybody know?

I got banned as well for 72 hours. Told some friends I was going to bed because I was going with my daughter on a field trip to Augusta GA. BANNED the next morning. I certainly did not intend to break the rules and am now wondering if banning happens often.

On one hand I appreciate Disney for monitoring so closely because my kids play. On the other hand, give me a break. I am no longer sure where the line is. I think that it is very subjective. After reading the House Rules, I found that I have skirted, if not crossed the line in many of my chats. And so have the people with whom I have chatted. This is turning into more of a rant, but have only been TF'ing for about 3 weeks and already banned. Scares me a little. Actually, a LOT!!!

i got banned last night because of my sister 3 days because she said myspace toontown is being to stirct .

I keep expecting to get banned.
I say stupid stuff like "I forgot I stripped my son's bed. I got to go." (<-----actual thing from last night.) It apparently got filtered. My friend didn't see what I wrote.

Strange what bans someone and not others.

They filter the strangest things actually. I had someone trying to tell me about their son's birthday party, when I finally found out what they were saying I was like, HUH? What did TT filter that one? Then there are soooo many other things that are said that they don't filter that they should, yes...I am guilty. They need to have a set of SOP's because no one really knows for sure what they can or can't say on TT...its all a guess.

I am getting frustrated with their filtering numbers. Give me a break!! I was trying to tell BooBoo Fuzzysocks today that I needed 5500 options and 14400 notices and could not get these numbers across. Geez they are TT numbers.

ROFL!!! dont get me started on the filtering!! i kept trying to talk to one tf about killing cogs... apparently I cant say kill.... but another TF says that word ALL the time when i fight with him... Kill it kill them...

and the filtered numbers??? i mean COME ON!!! i didnt CHOOSE to get 420 jury notices for my next level... they did! so a tf kept asking me and i kept answering... but she thot i was ignoring her question... How Rude! ROFL

so evertime i get to that point i always say i need 419 or 422 and the get it ... go figure!

MISS SNIFFY FUZZYFOOT :

How soon after you say the bad stuff do you get banned? Anybody know?

It could be instant for some... like me... lol i got kicked out and couldnt log back in ... said i was banned... then you wait 3 days then you have to call the number and leave your info.. then a real person will call you back at the time you indicate... but it will take longer if you request for a log of why you were banned .... it took me a week and a half to get back on.... and it was all for something that wasnt even my fault!! i was banned cuz someone hacked into my acct and used 15 minutes of nothing but PROFANITY in all caps... does anyone really type in all caps all the time?? to me CAPS is kind of like shouting... ROLF... ok i think im done !!!

I have seen several posts and none of them happy about how hard it was to get back on. But I have noticed a few things that must have changed since some of you have been banned. In the initial ban (sorry, account on hold) email, they sent a copy of the log where the offense alledgedly took place. It is also telling me that I must log on with my parent password (no phone calls) and re agree to their terms of service. Then I think their is something about praying to the mouse-god daily for a year, but then I should be back on.

Has anyone recently had trouble logging back in after suspension?

I had trouble with numbers not going through while chatting so I've started misspelling the words (very easy thing to do for me). Like if I need 75 more bucks, I'll type "I need sventyfve more bucks". It seems to have a better success rate of going through than the numbers.
Hope this helps.

I'm sure Disney has the finest intentions when they blank out numbers. There is not much difference (to a computer flag) between the number of something needed - merits, bux, etc. - and a phone number or address. It's just a bit hard to program a computer filter to distinguish between innocent dialog or rhetoric and a potential predator's inquiry for personal information. Likely scenario is that Disney would lose more on liabilities relating to placing someone in danger than for upsetting individuals who want more freedom of communication. I have also experienced the difficulties of getting something across to a TF. However, I side with keeping the kids safe. If Disney goes overboard with that, I count it my price to pay for playing a kids' game.

I also agree with a poster above... It makes no sense to type what's not meant to be seen/read. Disney won't understand the concept of whispering something because it was "to one's self".

I wonder if certain things are flagged and then maybe read after? Many times I've said "Sorry on the phone" and not have it go through (DUH I know better than to say phone but anyone else have a better idea of how to tell others why you are being so quiet)? But so far no warning or anything for saying the word. I've also said other blocked words often just not thinking and have yet to get a warning.....although never ever sing Happy Birthday to Bill (Crazy BooBooSmellysocks) and add the "how old are you" thingy at the end (HA! I got a letter...he got banned)

My motherinlaw was warned via email for saying to me in chat.. call me.. she didnt' know the rules.. She was frustrated with me because they filtered it and I never saw the chat... she said it multiple times.. and then she finally called me and fussed at me.. she thought I was being rude...LOL. The next day she had an email with stating she would be banned if she did that again..
Interesting... I guess I think its good they are so strict but really its a little overboard...

I can see where they wouldn't want you to give out your phone number in TT. That is personal info.

But just saying "Call me"?? Clearly you already HAVE the number. How does that in any way break the rules?? My friend got warned for telling me to e-mail him (misspelling e-mail to get past the filters). I already had his e-mail address, given to me outside the game. He was not trying to give me the address, that would have broken the rules, duh. Just said to e-mail him. That's ridiculous!

I don't mind having such strict rules. I love that they're trying to keep it safe. But they need to be realistic! And they need to let us know exactly what they are.
