Hey Townies!

Today we are releasing Town of Salem 3.3.5. This patch adds some new limitations on the symbols allowed to be entered in chat, last wills, death notes, and notepad to help minimize character substitution by those seeking to circumvent our chat filters. We also stomped some bugs. Happy hanging!

**CHANGES**
• Chat, Last Will, Death Note, Notepad: Restricted the allowed characters and symbols that can be typed. This was to prevent players from using certain non-English characters that looked like English ones to bypass the filter.

**BUG FIXES**
• Customization, Lobby: Fixed missing Coven lobby icon.
• Featured Items: Fixed Mafioso character in featured items appearing to be purchasable with MP when it is not.
• Report Player Dialog: Removed Inappropriate Account Name as a reason, added Leaving as a reason.
• Crash: Fixed a null reference exception that could occur.
