Have The Bad Word Detector Tell People What Bad Word They Wrote

Was directed here by a dupe posted earlier, but would like to mention that this is rejected (recently added to TOLORS in May 2025) since this seems like the oldest created thread regarding this suggestion.

The Official List of Rejected Suggestions wrote:

6.5 Detailed information on why a comment was filtered
Some Scratchers have suggested that the filter should be more clear by showing which letters/words tripped the filter. However, such a suggestion would make it easier to write comments that are disrespectful or inappropriate but do not trip the filter. When a Scratcher is prevented from posting a comment due to the filter, the Scratch Team wants to encourage them to think carefully about why, so that they can refrain from writing similar comments in the future.
