A porn filter now in use by United Kingdom's four biggest Internet service providers -- BT, TalkTalk, Virgin and Sky -- came with an unintended consequence, as it disrupted the patching process for League of Legend's latest update.
Reddit user LoLBoompje posted a public service announcement to the League of Legends subreddit earlier in the week warning people that the newest patch contained two files whose filenames that included the letters "s", "e", and "x" in succession. The offending files, called VarusExpirationTimer.luaobj and XerathMageChainsExtended.luaobj, would have their download affected by the overzealous filter and keep some people from playing.
The filter only affects newer customers, those being folks who signed up within the last month or so, and can be turned off by calling your ISP. While inconveniencing, summoners from the United Kingdom can find solace in the fact that with just one phone call they get their two favorite hobbies back.
