We don’t hide expletives or any hate speech from our dashboards in order to fully capture/understand what customers are experiencing/feeling. However, when creating formal reports outside of dashboards, we would not include this type of negative hate speech or language within a presentation or PPT.
A workaround for this could be manually updating comments to blur out this type of negative language in the Data and Analysis tab, but I feel that would lose a comprehensive view of customers’ voices.
Hello @julie.locke -- First, let me say I am so sorry you’re having to deal with survey results that include this type of language.
One fellow XM Community member @MattiasM posted a reply on a similar topic below some time back; it could potentially be helpful for you:
I personally do not have any way of expediting your product feedback idea, but I am also hoping this feature comes to the platform soon to make sure everyone using Qualtrics has the option to choose whether or not they want to be exposed to any sort of hate speech.
@julie.locke,
It is possible to remove profanity and offensive words from text responses when the respondent clicks Next. I have a JS function that does it.
My opinion differs from @ash123. I believe a respondent’s “enthusiasm” (reference to Welcome to Wrexham) can be gauged by the amount of profanity and the specific words rarely add any understanding.

Thank you for jumping in here, @TomG!
