Swearing and Enworld's Policy

For instance, I'll happily call myself a game slut or be tremendously pissed off about something. I will not call another member a slut or use "piss" in the excretion sense.

Excretion sense.. now there's a lousy super power.

*heh* Yeah just discussin to be honest. I haven't had any issues on here.

That said rpg.net can be a bit heavier! I got a private red warning for saying "I reckon he's a w*nk*r, just ignore him"

If you were talking about another poster, you'd get one here, too. At that point, the word itself is the least of the problems with it!

LOL! Fair enough.

Mind you the guy I was saying " I think..." about was a troll who got banned about 2.76 minutes later

Super power? Isn't that just "sense of smell"?

A common misconception is that the word "ass" is in the filter. It isn't. You can say ass if you feel that the situation calls for it. But don't call somebody else an ass or we'll ban your ass.

It bothers me when I see somebody say "a$$" because that tells me that they think it might be filtered but they are trying to circumvent the filter. So I tell people not to do that.

For instance, I'd be particularly accurate if I said "Gary Gygax's gelatinous cube ate my ass." I'd be equally accurate if I said "Rel and his stupid dungeon cart killed the gelatinous cube too late to save my beloved and trusty ass, and thus Rel is an ass," but then I would be breaking the rules. Even though it'd be totally justified.
