I can live with common cuss words being censored on the HL chat (but sometimes I wonder why only in English). I'm personally against any form of censorship but this isnt really a big deal, I dont have a problem with It.

Or should I say, I didnt, until I noticed that the last name of the German chancellor during WW2 was also censored, (not naming him as I dunno if he's censored here too).

Now, if the name of Chancellor H. is censored, why aren't Churchill, Roosevelt and Truman also censored?
If only "bad" guys get censored, then Stalin should be censored too, and if only those who lost the war are to be censored, then Mussolini, Tojo and HiroHito should be censored too.

I mean, our game is about WW2, and Chancellor H. played an important role in that war. Censoring his name is in my opinion yet another example of overzealous political "correctness".

Fixed Wink It was added for reason. If the reason will repeat it will be added again.
