Bug in Foundry profanity filter

In one of my dialogs I (used to) have a sentence:


"Master Illusionists could summon such horrors that only existed in our minds."


and now after 8/15/13 patch, I am getting an exclamation icon stating that "Master" is a profane word.

    Please at least let us know as soon as possible if this was intended or a mistake.

    I'm not about to go through the quest I'm working on and needlessly contort my dialog just so it'll publish.

    Definitely I hope they do! Thankfully I was just working on this dialog and caught it.
    (*cough* release notes pleeeeeeez! *cough*)
    I can't imagine how many poor Master Alchemists and Master Bartenders are suddenly shunned!

    I have a pregnant woman in the quest I'm currently working on. I fired up the Foundry to find 8 dialogs and a map that are now 'profane' because of the word child :(

    I know this has been mentioned - but we have no feedback yet.

    These are flagged by the profanity filter in the foundry editor?

    Master at Arms = Military Title.
    John = proper name as in John Smith.

    This is getting out of hand - soon it will be impossible to string any sort of coherent sentence together and telling decent stories will be a thing of the past.

    If this is intended then can we have an animation were the NPC puts hand over mouth and a bubble appears (^%&%$%&).

    Please reply with it's correct or an error.

    I'm still trying to figure out what is profane suddenly in my dialogue. Thanks to the post above, I know that my baaaadddd word 'child' needs to be removed. I have already removed 'Duchess' which apparently is an assault to someone's sensibilities. I just used the work around 'Dutchess'. yes... it is misspelled. But not 'profane'.

    Now.... I have this long response that is filled with completely innocuous words and yet... there is one profane bugger in there. Is there a list of no no words anywhere?

    I wonder if something went terribly, horribly awry when they were localizing into other languages, considering the other thread in which the filter misinterpreted English words as a Spanish obscenity. None of this makes sense otherwise.

    I started a new TR on the weekend on received the first mail from "The Cloaked Man", which says "meet me in blah blah Black Lake". Except now it says "meet bleeeeeeeep".

    Too funny.

    Guaranteed this is not working as intended. It'll get fixed... soon(TM).

    This is no longer confined to foundry, it is now in chat filters as well. It is so ridiculous that people with the name "John" are having their names filtered.... Please do away with this filter. In fact according to the TOS everyone is supposed to be over 18, how about killing the filter altogether?

    Really? I thought it was over 13 but I could easily have misread an 8 as a 3.
