Reminder on the new swear update

Post by Drouge »

Yes, you are allowed to use ass, yes, you can use it. HOWEVER you are not allowed to use it to insult someone else.

If this continues, I will be giving out warnings for flaming, understand? If you don't read this topic, and get one, it's your fault, since you're supposed to come and read every new post in here

If you use it as an insult in chat, it's grounds for an immediate 15 minute kick and a verbal warning.

Considering it's already part of the rules, and common bloody sense, I shouldn't have had to make this topic at all.

I already knew this. If I'm right Blade once told me you could use it but not as insult.

I've been saying this since day one but some people don't seem to understand the difference so they'll take advantage of this privilege.

I really think its a bad idea to even allow these words. I mean, a parent of a child could always walk in and see one of these words. Then, the child would be punished for something he didn't do. I know people will disaggree just to defend their desicion, but just speaking my opinion here.

I agree with Waffles. Why don't we just not use it at all?

There was much debate on that topic before the word was added to the unbanned list. You could sort of say this is a test run for the site to see if the general public can handle such words. Its a pretty good time, too, random people popping in for the summer gives us newbie input.
Not that all the staff members think the same, that's just how I see it.

We might keep the word in circulation or we might remove it at any given time, all depends on how people react.

People are still doing this.

I'm almost to the point where I try to get it removed from the list, most of you handle it well, but a select few can't. And a select few can ruin it for everyone.

Any use of ass as an insult will be met with an immediate kick from me, no exceptions. The other Mods may handle it differently, but I will be kicking.

^ There won't always be a moderator in the chat. The best thing to do in that situation is to take a screenshot of the chat and message it to one of the mods.

Squirrel Style is correct. However, to get that reaction from somebody you tend to have to be like that yourself. Otherwise, you shouldn't have any problems.

Is that for anyone on this site, or anyone ever?
For instance:

"Hey, have you seen Brittany Spears' new eyebrows?"
"No, she is an ass."

Would that be allowable?
