Forum:Proposal:Allowing Swearing in Chat

Now before everyone flips out and goes insane, lemme explain first. Basically, I think that the chat rules on cursing are a little strict. I mean, we aren't little kids that have to wash our mouths out with soap, and half of the people on chat break the rules and curse anyways by saying "feck" or "shet".

Basically I am just saying we should allow: fuck, shit, bitch, ho(e), slut, pussy etc. AS LONG AS THEY AREN'T USED TO INSULT ANOTHER USER.

Obviously slang like: cunt, nigga(er) ,beaner, retarded, and faggot/fag should stay strictly banned.

But I mean saying: "Fuck, school was hard today." Or "Shit I forgot to do this." should be allowed. It's not like we all don't already say them on other forms of communication, and STILL having this outdated rule on chat is ridiculous. Almost every chat I go to, cursing is allowed now.

This rule has been tried to be lifted before, but I think everyone on chat nowadays is rather laid back and mature to deal with it. And if conflict and overuse/abuse of this priviledge consists constantly on chat, as in every single sentence coming out of someone's fingers is "Fuck that shit, fucking sucked like fucking hell fuck." Then this priviledge should be taken away again.

Alright, I'm done. I am opening this into a community vote sort of thing, so everyone can leave a Support or Oppose. I will try and add a vote thing.

Well, I don't really swear in chat (so this doesn't exactly affect me as much) but sometimes someone could use it in the wrong way without knowing it, but as long as they know not to go overboard, then I'm cool with it.
