Looks like they censored the country Niger in their own post.
Niger is a known intentional misspelling of the n-word used to circumvent censorship. So this is an evolution of the Scunthorp problem.
The hearts are how steam censors things it believes to be swears
Steam censored it for them. Nobody would go and use hearts if they were to self censor. They'd use ****ing asterisks.
Fucking h*ck.
Did you just say the fuck word?
I'm telling Mom you both said fuck.
at least he censored the H word
Why would steam be more likely to use hearts? If anything id say the exact opposite.
Because that's just how their censor works. It's a well known fact for anyone used to steam.
You're G****mn right.
