So, TTS blocks and translator blocks usually don't do anything if there's a swear word, right? Well, if you type the roman numeral 30 (XXX), it thinks it's a swear word and censors it in blocks. The same thing happens for the word “balls”, which is another innocent word which literally means “the plural of a ball”. I hope this bug gets fixed.

There are multiple ways to workaround “balls”, though.
1. Misspelling it
For example, “The soccer bals are deflated” or “The soccer bolls are deflated” won't be censored.
2. Joining it with the previous word
e.g. “The soccerballs are deflated” won't be censored.
3. Using other terms
e.g. “The soccer round things are deflated” or “The soccer spheres are deflated” won't be censored.
4. Using the singular form (which isn't censored)
e.g. “The soccer ball are deflated” won't be censored.

XXX

Sorry, I thought you meant that in posts. Tried this and it didn't say anything.

Roman numeral 30 (XXX) is also a term for a really non-appropriate thing. Therefore, it censors it because it thinks that's what you mean. As for balls, it, too can be considered another term, but at that point, I think the users should just deal with it.

In other words, XXX generally means….“Adult Entertainment” to be more specific than JRR.

The roman numeral 30 also refers to something that is not okay for Scratch.

What about these?
“XXXX”
“XX”
“XOXO”
“XL”
“XXXL”
“X_X” (emoticon)
“XD” (emoticon)

Those aren't censored

All these refer to other terms, but the balls thing is ridiculous.
