I've always wondered how "I" could be punished because some other douche opted to turn his filter off.  Why even give us the option Huh

This is nothing new. It's a PG server. If swearing is such an important part of someone's life, why play here?

The kid's table is more fun.

Filter doesn't catch all offensive material.

wall of text that is completely irrelevant to the point trying to be made.

Once again, irrelevant to the point.  Plus there is occasional cursing in PG.

It's an all-encompassing statement.  Filters can be modified.

No you won't find swearing in a PG movie.

The point of the post was this, "Why am I being punished for people turning off an option on their local copy of Everquest."  I posted the rules which explain why you'd be punished.  The rules do not state "occasional swearing is ok, just keep it in moderation."  It is a zero tolerance policy.

My statement didn't refer to EZ specifically.  You seemed to have missed my other comment, "Why even give us the option."

This applies to Live too, as well as other games.  There is a bad word filter, but you will still be punished if someone reports you for cursing, even though they voluntarily turned it off.

So once again, why even give us the option?

That is a question you should ask eqlive. EZ did not put that option there.

But it sounds like you are either trying to justify cursing because there is a filter in game and/or say people should not be punished simply because there is a filter. No matter how you word it to make sense fact is, filter or no, the rules are there.

I post random stuff after adventures in /ooc land.
Its always interesting to go back and read what others respond with.
I swear, most of the server swears.
Its knowing the limit.

If people are offended they need to chill, go join the military and see how hard it is for them to not cuss from time to time, or more often.

If its really a big issue for someone I would suggest a POLITE tell to the person asking them to stop or relax. Being a douche in /ooc back trying to act all cool and crap by calling someone a kid or a teenager or whatever just makes you look like the flaming retard you are.

Raise your hand if you are under 25, under 21 and how about under 18.

People that whine about how their "young child" plays the game can shove it. You as a player know what eq servers are like. This server is very very very mild compared to others. If you want to whine about how your 9 year old is being exposed to this environment then I suggest you take a class in parenting.

Flame on folks, I'll check the thread again in about a week.
