Microsoft tried to ban “Microslop,” and six months later it has given up

In March, Windows Latest was the first to notice that Microsoft’s official Copilot Discord server was blocking messages containing “Microslop.” Anyone who tried to post it got a moderation warning, and people quickly started testing variations like “Microsl0p” to slip past the filter. Naturally, the situation escalated until Microsoft locked down parts of the server for good.

Six months later, I checked the same Copilot Discord again and found that “Microslop” is no longer being blocked. Users were openly posting the word in the general channel, and search turns up over 200 results for it going back weeks.

Obviously, Microsoft didn’t say anything about lifting the ban. People just started using the word again, and we found that whatever was blocking the word no longer appears to be active….
