/ooc is not R&F
 
Keep in mind that what goes on in this forum is not to find it's way into /ooc. While a certain level of swearing is allowed in ooc, we do NOT allow bashing/flaming/asshattery in /ooc like we do here, so please keep it out of there.

Server Chat either.

Gets under my skin how much is in there that belongs in R&F. Not a great how do ya do for the new influx of people.

Meh.

i love the forums <3

It's worse. Regular hateful religion bashing, racism, American bashing, etc.

At least it's not done using a specific few words arbitrarily chosen to be "offensive". So it's okay.

/mourn Finawin's suspension

It's pretty toxic most of the time. I hope enough see this and think to hold back. It's easy to get strung along into some bad territory and it's a shame because /ooc is about the best place for new players to ask for advice.

Regardless, people need to nut up or shut up.

Grown adults crying to mods, admins, and devs about language they are fully capable of ignoring or otherwise dealing with is pathetic. They have better things to worry about. (or so I thought until the recent wave of bellyaching that resulted in suspensions for prominent members of the community for no other reason than ridiculous crybaby bullshit from grown men and women)

You are 100% in control of and empowered over what you are exposed to in game. You can both ignore people directly and shut off OOC entirely and your gameplay will neither be hindered nor affected.

I regularly see far more offensive shit said in OOC than what I received a suspension for. I used to ignore it until now. I am now screenshotting and reporting everything.

It doesn't offend me but, I didn't open that can of worms.

Are you seriously this thick? Are you really that dumb?

Instead of counting on people being man enough to ignore these comments, how about you just stop using them in the first place? Do you have a clear inability to construct a sentence or engage in conversation without referring to people as: gay, fags, retarded, retards, racial or sexual slurs? That is all we are asking. There is no need of it. This is the only requirement I have made of you and you continuously fight it and continuously dig yourself a deeper and deeper hole.

There is no use to this language. It offers nothing to conversation and offers nothing to the topic other than making the forums slightly offensive to some users and some potential users. Is it really that hard to just refrain from using those terms? It is really so tough to just not be a jackass?

Seriously Finawin you have to be the dumbest person I have ever had to try and carry a conversation with. You try and act all high and mighty like you are the most ethical and educated person to grace this earth's surface with your presence. Seriously man it is time to grow up and quit "sticking it to the man." You aren't sticking anything to anybody; you are just making yourself look more stupid than you already did.
