Disney doesn't allow certain words when talking to another 'toon'. Numbers are the big one that are not allowed. This is for protection of everyone, but especially children.
Because of the words not allowed, replacement words must be found. Here are some numbers:
One, 1, - you must spell it like this: Won
Two, 2 - you must spell it like this: Too, or To
Three, 3 - you must spell it like this: Tree
Four, 4 - you spell like this: For
Five, 5 - you spell like this: Hive
Six, 6 - I have not seen a replacement word, but am thinking of Fix
Seven, 7 - you spell like this: Heaven
Eight, 8 - you spell like this: Ate
9 and 10 I have not seen either but Fine and Hen would work.
Other words not allowed are 'violent' words: During the game, your goal is to get rid of (aka Kill) Cogs. They are the bad robots trying to take over Toontown. During the game you can't say kill, die or other similar words when talking about the Cogs.
Meet is another one of the words not allowed. We actually have 'friends' that we will be meeting when we go to Walt Disney World in September. Imagine how hard it is to plan this when you can't use numbers (phone) and other words.
Disney has these restrictions for security. They do not detract from the game.
What do they do then?
I know when Alex is playing Toontown he is completely safe. Safe from predators and others. He will not be treated badly and he can play and have fun. Disney has made this a safe place for the young children to play. And Alex loves the game.
When Alex is done playing online, he builds Toontown with his Legos. The game has given him more than one creative outlet.
Thanks Disney for all of the safety restrictions you have!
Please post here is you have other replacement words. We have only been doing the game for a few weeks and I know there are more words out there!
