Which is also because they happen to use "Cuss words" in the show. We are all mature here. Noone on the game doesnt know what F uck means... Nor do they not know what the other cuss words mean either. I have SEEN the OWNER of the game cussing AT PLAYERS before. hard core "F-Bomb" and all... The fact that i get muted because i said "f uck" in refference to a song that was being talked about in OOC... And the song actually has that word in it... I got muted... This again is bull shit. If we are allowed to cuss in IC, there is no reason why we should nto be able to use cuss worlds in OOC AS LONG as it is not directed at someone in the form of insults... Which seemingly... People on the staff have a probably following, as well as the owner. This is a easy compromise for players and staff alike since there are some topics that should be allowed to be had, and some that shouldnt. Unless it reaches into some horrible area that is either extremely offensive, or extremely graphic, or insulting (And really... Use common sense for this. Saying that you were offended because someone said David Spade is an ass... Is not a mute worth reason... GTFO with that...) If players are mature enough to use cuss words in there Role Playing, there is NO REASON why we shouldnt be mature enough to use it in everyday OOC chatting, again, as long as it doesnt hurt anyone, or offend anyone, or reach into some area of topic that shouldnt be mentioned like pornographical content.(And again use commone sense... If someone says something like "Did you F uck a Mermaid" Like i said... Thats niether offensive, insulting, or pornographic... The person i was talking to knew that it was part of the song. And i even explained it on OOC so everyone else knew... That is NOT horrible... And hardly mure worthy.) If you are going to trust players with using it in RP then they surely should be able touse it in OOC. For that matter... If the OWNER can do it, and not in the approprate way that i mentioned here, or if he can allow it to happen on the game, i dont see the difference... Only my suggestion seems to be something that is easier to live with, and less hurtfull to players and offensive to those watching... Again. The game is PG-13. We all know what the word is... Alittle maturaty should be used now adays. We arent children and we arent pre-teens. We have all seen worse on movies and TV.... Get over yourselves... Its not the worse thing that can happen in a game.... Edited by Moussiffer, May 13 2009, 11:15 PM.
