I'm all for it, too.
But how about the technical aspect? How effectife can a filter be, I mean there are limitless variations of how to write something.
For example "_r*a**p_e^^^^".I think if someone goes to those lengths to create a room using any format to circumvent the room name filter .. the account holder needs to be permanently banned / terminated.
It's one thing to post something or act in a way when the rules are not clearly defined (for example the recent advertising issue in WC) .. but when you blatantly go against them .. No pity.

Yes, I understand your point ..
I was asking about the rulings on that because I used to administer / own a Canadian web radio registered with SOCAN and the PRO's in the USA.
We had reports to file every month about airplay and profits .. even if we weren't generating any kind of revenue and we still had to pay a Royalty fee to be able to stream the content legally. Of course those fees were less than those that were generating a profit BUT there still was a fee to pay. Don't want to get in an big explanation as this has been discussed many many times here before.
I do agree that 'Personal Use' is a pretty 'vague' statement though and can lead to many interpretations and legal debates.
I wouldn't know about 'MIXING' my own creations, from what I'm getting .. that IS your intellectual property (unless using samples from someone else)
Music in your car, music in a bar(or any other venue) is different .. the broadcasters HAVE paid the royalties in accordance to their platform(fees vary from platform to platform)
But I agree, it's a big pile of spagetti that's very difficult to untangle!

You can stream music as long it's not for profit.
So as long it's for personnal use, without profit and you don't share any content it's still legal.
Please do provide me with the link to any such ruling from the major P.R.O.`s (Ascap, Socan, BMI, SoundExchange .. etc..etc.) as the rules might have changed from when I was streaming more 'professionally'.
AFAIK, Internet Radio's (even the ones that do not make ANY kind of profit) OR any other entity that streams copyrighted material have to be licensed to broadcast legally on ANY platform and even then, there are a multitude of other sub-rules that exist to control what they do.
And .. HEY TERRY! Nice to see you!

And that is the main issue.
How are WE supposed to care, and have patience?
When the @Gizmo can't even be arsed to respond to anything?
@Lisa tries, I guess. But it's not nearly enough.
But I reckon a lot of folks here HAVE had ENOUGH.
It's an old point, and saying it is beating a dead horse. But we PAID for this game, be it monthly or yearly.
It's our money in here.
Customer Loyalty is still there, but I reckon fading fast in some people.
Hell even Alivia, one of the, if not THE, biggest 3DX Cheerleaders, sounds dejected with the state of the game now.
If even SHE, can't find a positive spin on this situation. Nobody can.Agreed.. We sound like broken records which is why I decided to shut my trap about it. (mission accomplished for them i guess ?)
And yeah, you can feel @Aliviax `s deception behind that smile.

It -could- tentatively be justified IF it would be a temporary measure till that 'new server' they promised goes live.
But as always, dead silence from @GizmoThere's nothing more permanent than something that is suppose to be temporary.
But yeah, without communication, it's all but an hypothesis.

Last week was supposed to be the start of the tests of that new server.(as stated by Lisa 2 weeks ago)
Anyone got info on that ?

Dear Devs, instead of banning with nosense ppl, why not to put auto censorship, changing words with ***, like in a lot of online games?
That's actually one of the better suggestion / fix i've read!

There's a difference between a chat and a social platform. That's my point.
I'll leave at it that.
