Oh look, a sticky about ass holes and shit.
When would you ever use the word ass hole, if not to insult somebody? Unless you were actually talking about an anus I suppose.....
Also, regarding shit. I regularly use the word to describe the ability of players and tribes I dislike (or players and tribes I deem to be shit). Is that ok?
I don't want players continuously using profanity that's not infractable to an obscene degree
No.
Wtf is not allowed because the f-word is not allowed in any form.
what i dont get is that (im assuming) these abreviations were banned so that younger players are not exposed to bad language. but it defeats that very purpose as for the younger player to read the abreviation they must already know/use the word themselves?
No.

And if you guys simply abuse this thread, I'll hand out infractions and remove it so that you all have more trouble following the rules . You might want to pay attention to:
My question remains: Why is it such a big deal not being allowed to swear? You wouldn't swear in a public press conference, and if you take the forums as PnP platforms (not just spam) then you shouldn't swear here either. Can you imagine a politician in a debate with children watching swearing his head off trying to prove his point? He could be making the best, most brilliant case in the world but if he's carrying on with the swearing no-one will listen.

Yet some of the most renowned speakers in the world have been known to swear, in order to reiterate and really emphasise a point. I nod you to MLK as one particularly famous example. I think when used in context, a curse word can being a certain degree of poignancy to a speech or in this case, a post. Sometimes, some words just aren't strong enough to do justice to the point you are trying to make.
Jirki is only saying it's allowed if you're referring to the tribe in W38, not using the term in general. And if I'm not mistaken, the tribe is now gone .
Most of the "swearing politicians" are slip of the tongues,
Clever attempt though :icon_razz:.
Now stop being silly.
