Swearing Rules

Well I just wanted to know what you saw as being 'bad' swear words, I think that we need some sort of regulations on it.

I know the rules say that there is to be no swearing, but I don't think total censorship is the right way to go.

There is one word that won't be tolerated though, and you can all guess which one that is. And for the sarcastic smart people we have here, that will probably reply saying "What is that word you were talking about? " then that word is the 'f' word.

Im not pointing at any particular people but *places big neon letters sign with words "OVER HERE" above Drippiks head* just kidding.

But, I mean that the whole forums should have some sort of swearing rules.

Like, what words do you find suitable and unsuitable to ever be used?

I don't ever swear my self but as long as it is used appropriately then I don't mind it. What irritates me is when people swear excessively for no reason.

I have used all of the English swear words, some of the English 'bad-bad, naughty Fido' words and none of the overly racist words. Words i have used and the sentences i have used them in...

"Your mum enjoyed it when i {Insert obvious word here} her dick..."

"Ooooohhh, so thats why your penis is bulging like a sexually frustrated fag..."

"Have you noticed that your face looks like an overly screwed Pussy?"

"O-M-G!! YOU LIED, YOU LIED!! I HAVE LOST £6 COS OF YOU, YOU F*CKING SLAG!! JESUS, CANT YOU KEEP YOUR LEGS TOGETHER!?"

"You fell asleep while he went down on you, oh, oh thats classic!!"

"I would so love to {Insert obvious word here} your dick..."

"I would love to {Insert obvious word here} your balls, but, unfortunatly for you...i prefare a mouthful..."

I don't think swearing should be allowed at all!

Oddworld forums should have a rule like this: Swearing is not allowed, whoever breaks this rule will be dealt with.

Or something like that...

I think some of the less "extreme" words should be permitted, as they are useful to illastrate some points when ya feel strongly about it, but they should'nt be allowed when they are being used to offend people.....am I making sense?

I've decided that there shouldn't be any swearing.

I won't censor any of those words, except the 'f' word. After talking with Sydney, I agree with him on a lot of things.

I should have said something earlier. I'm creating an announcement on this as well. You should ALL read it, it will be in every forum. And i'm closing this topic.
