    When used in scraped, there is no good way to do anything.

    Perhaps scrapped is the word you are looking for? :)
    Unless you are talking about your boat's injuries after a battle! My paint got scraped arrrgh

    //not that censoring scraped makes much sense though. Unless it refers to some porn fetish I do not need to learn about

    I think I figured it out.

    "Chatte" is apparently not just "female cat" in French, it refers to ... uh ... something else that's been given a feline nickname.

    But again, this is in English chat. That word is perfectly valid.

    Edit: This is also especially silly considering some of the more "colorful" guild names and short-names I've seen. Apparently you're allowed to drop F-bombs in your guild name, but can't say "chatter" or "scraped"?

    How about Minnesota? That's censored lol
    And the Japan censoring is really strange. U can say just Japan as a word but not in a setence
    Also crap is a really light word to be censored . .
    Even more importantly, asshole isn't censored...
