[quote title=Chronojam wrote on Fri, 16 March 2007 22:40]Fun fact: At my high school, "swearing indirectly (ie. not at a person)" carried a stiffer penalty than swearing at faculty/staff or swearing at a student. [quote]

"Yes" says he.

UNrules banned me for saying 2 cuss words. So I cussed there forums out and they banned me from there too.


Would you abide by the rules of any other server that you play on?

A server owner pays for the server therefore has the right to make any rule. I feel they are then duly entitled to enforce any rule that they impose. If it's a no swearing rule then so be it.

If players do not like the server rules then they are free to move to a server that suits them. But to return to the forum is demonstrating a little immaturity

2 cuss words would have got you a warning from IRC @ UN and not a ban. Tell the truth and folk will not laugh. However the mistake was to go back and cuss the forum.

How does that make you feel? Why did you wish to return and cuss them? What were you hoping to achieve by your actions? How often do you do this on other servers when you do not agree with a single rule?

ps. Do not take offence as I am also banned from the UN forum. Why? For always giving an alternative thought to any discussion even if I did not personally agree with the thought. Blush

Because their rules state 'no swearing' and you do swear. It's like when their rules state 'no obelisk walking' and you oby walk. Or when it says 'no cheaing' and you cheat. Or when it says 'no wall jumping' and you start wall jumping.

That's the only reply to your question. Now if you do not agree with the rules, then obviously it's not very smart to play there.

As much as I am against corruption of youth, I don't think a few swears will do that. I was 7 when I started swearing, by 10 I was swearing profusely. (I have since gotten it under control.) Movies and TV got me saying swears, and by the time I was on the internet regularly (round 12 or 13), it was no big deal. Swearing today is so common place that swears are barely bad words anymore, rather strong expressions of emotion or feeling towards something.

I think if you REALLY wanted to corrupt the youth, show em porn. THAT will corrupt them.

No I didn't... lol. Someone asked why admins kick for cusswords, and he answered "Because the admins and mods of the server just want an excuse to use the !kick command."

Im agreeing with him, because it's true.

There have always been people who feel the need to play mommy and block naughty words. I suspect it has something to do with thier small penis, hurt/small ego and the need to be power trippy dip twats. I say fucking swear after you get shot in the face with a shotgun. Blazer has a very good point. It is ok to be shot in the face with a shot gun but not ok to say FUCK after it? That makes it even more lame.

First off, I was banned, so I asked on there forums with something along the lines of "Why the fuck was I banned for saying 2 fucking swear words" I like my cuss words. They even banned corpgus for having the setjoin !set my stallion free (stallion = another player) they also banned stallion I think it was for having the setjoin f0rking forkers or something like that.

P.S when I first went there I didnt know about the rule, so they warned me. Right after I get warned I was kicked. So I came back in to say why the fuck was I kicked after you already warned me. And asked how it was a warning so I got banned.

Just so we're clear, server owners are free to set whatever rules they like. The discussion here is whether or not they should have that rule. But only they can change their minds. No one can force them to allow people to swear. I will defend to the death a server owner's right to have whatever rules he likes. I just don't have to agree with them. I don't play on servers whose rules I do not like.

I'm the bawss.

We recently experimented with our language filter.

The results:

1. Kick on bad language causes people to complain the server is too strict, but leads to less heated arguments
2. No language filter causes less complaints but more heated arguments
3. Warn for language (3rd warn = kick) acts as a decent way to stop people swearing without having as many "too strict" complaints

End result we've stuck with warn for language and it seems to work well.

There are degrees of 'swearing' most places don't care of you swear in general but when the player uses fuck and shit with every word they type then that is just being childish

There are words that I will not allow, fag and * mean mean black person * being the 2 main ones because that is not swearing, they are direct insults


Edit Swear filter pwn *

Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

Simple some people find it offensive (regardless of their age) and will not continue playing on the server.
Also sometimes it gets to the point of spamming.

Spamming swears on a server is worth a warning, but merely saying it shouldn't be punishable. It's a violent game... if the words effect you personally, then you shouldn't be playing Renegade.

If you can't handle a fuck you n00b every now and then you shouldn't be playing a game that you kill people in. If your a server owner and you can't see that then you shouldn't be a server owner. Also, if the word fuck does offend you then you need to come out from under your rock and get something serious to worry about.

It is the server owner's choice, if they what to kick you from the game because you can't control your language its their choice.
