Stop discussing this. Why the (Want to be allies? Sometimes I like to pretend I am a princess riding a pony..) do you care if it's censored or not? Are you incapable of filling in the blanks?

This is a non issue.

I was talking about swearing as a whole. That means images and videos too. And if you put up an image/video that has one swear word in it, it gets removed and you get warned. Which is (Want to be allies? Sometimes I like to pretend I am a princess riding a pony..).

I for one, do swear from time to time. Especially when im pissed! However, just because "everyone is doing it" doesnt mean that we have to.

I for one do not want a forum where everyone can say whatever they want. You guys push the limits plenty as it is, and we do maintain a minimum standard. I get to do the customer service emails around here, and I am the one who responds to the common letters from parents wondering if we do maintain a minimum standard, and if it is safe to allow their kids to play.

I explain that we do police the game, but sometimes vulgarities can occur before we are able to respond. We requir that users be at least 13 so that they can be mature enough to know better, and to understand the function of report functions and systems.


It really boils down to respect and self control. Even if I swear once in a while at home, that does not mean that I want to see people with foul mouths all day long here in this forum. I know plenty of others who don't want that either. If you simply do not have that kind of self control, then perhaps it is best that you refrain from posting to avoid issues.

I do not want to have to come to any enforcement necessity here, so Ill ask politely to please be respectful, and use language that leaves no doubt of your ability to be respectful to others and to this community.

Thank you =)

Ok, so, I stand corrected. But that is still crazy to me.

Player artwork isn't needed. Just put your artwork in miscellaneous.

World events is one and the same with Discussion and debates.

Movies and media. Same as 1.

Combine newbie and veteran questions.


Stuff like that.
