A lot of people seems to have problems due to censored words.
The problem is that they aren't always evident to spot.
For example, the word "suicide" is prohibited.
Is there a way to get a full list?
EDIT: Completely forgot to mention this issue was related to 'Map Publishing'.

None.
Wow censored words already?
I remember EA'S online multiplayer channels for games such as C&C Generals, Battle for Middle-Earth, and Battle for Middle-Earth II. The words censored on that was ridiculous.
Muslim was censored, but Arab wasn't...haha typical western capitalism.
None.
Just turn the filter off.

Yea, and blizz should have turned them off by default.
Please report errors in the Staredit.Network forum.
I am talking about publishing!
If the word 'suicide', is mentioned in your map description, you cannot publish it.
None.
SC2 is rated for Teen not for Mature like earlier games. I doubt they will publish a list, as that could enable people to more easily get around the silly thing. What kind of warning does it say when you add a censored word? May be possible to generate a list.
None.
Look at this: When reading the description for Banelings, it says "Suicide unit". Yet the world "suicide" is censored in map making. What the **** is that all about?
None.
Why don't they just use the "Online interactions are not rated by the ESRB" phrase that every other game uses?

This.
But Blizzard wants to be like overprotective parents and make sure that we aren't exposed to the big bad world that's out there.

I think the only games by Blizzard that were rated Mature were part of the Diablo series. StarCraft and all WarCraft games have been rated Teen.
None.
An interesting fact, albeit slightly irrelevant.
In sc1 the word "masturbat" was censored in public channels. (No e)
"If a topic that clearly interest noone needs to be closed to underline the "we don't want this here" message, is up to debate."

None.
You're also not allowed to have the word "Starcraft" in your map's title.
None.
Well, I can't be sure, I guess. However, when I tried to publish a map for testing purposes, I left the default title, which was "Just Another Starcraft II Map" and the box that said "This cannot currently be published" said "Inappropriate word in title ['Starcraft']"
None.
Lmfao, this is ridiculous.
None.
Damn. This ruins my chance of my SEN RP for sc2 QQ...
If people in the map played DM, Tux, or maybe Echo
really well, then it may as well be rated X
None.
The word "Noob" is censored. Lol? I wish there was a complete list: we'd laugh hard.
None.
http://dowzocalypse.com/2010/04/19/starcraft-2-word-filter-lol/not a complete list.. but it gets the point thru quite clearly..
None.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
