Hey folks,

The admins have recieved several complaints and reports lately that swearing is becoming too prolific in the forums; this is a general notice to please tone things down. Dumpshock isn't first grade, but it's not a strip club - it's somewhere in-between, so please try to keep your language at an appropriate level.

Thank you.

Oh, all right. Dagnabit.

Or at least use the published swear works- hoop, slitch, frag.

Sure you can. You just can't charge money for it.

for a few moments I was thinking this was a thread on Curse type spells. Silly me.

Adam, shouldn't posts like this be CLOSED for being a non-Shadowrun topic?

Can we get a list of acceptable swear words or something? I hate when people say "Keep it PG-13" because of the way the MPAA works, you can have damn near anything in a PG-13 movie if you're Spielberg (look at MINORITY REPORT. Multiple uses of the F-word, multiple uses of the S-word, blood from a gunshot, several instances of murder, some graphic...). Just looking for a general guideline.

The Abstruse One

That's fine for movies, but not for an online forum. Look at our canon o' conduct, for instance.

Don

minority report was pg13? whoa.

Well, ain't THAT some sh... umm... poop.

Boooo! Inside jokes = hurt kevyn

Kidding (mostly).

Seriously though, I'm glad you posted this. IRL, I curse like a drunken sailor--despite not being one--but around here I try to keep it down. When see folks going off the four letter deep end for no apparent reason, I get rather torqued off. I'm like, "if he/she does it, why can't I?"

Anyways, good job.

I would like to appoligize to every one for my foul a$$ mouth.
At some times i have the need to tell other dump shockers off cause soem of them are just stupid heads.** I would of used a bad word there**
But then I'm only appoligizing to the good ones , not the dumb a$$'s.

Platinum, if that apology were a person, his bones would snap in a weak breeze.

Adam, close and sticky this, or something. This thread (I think fairly obviously) isn't going anywhere, and it's mostly already served its purpose.

WOULD'VE...it's WOULD'VE! Not "would of". "Would of" isn't a real phrase. It means nothing. The correct phrase is "would have" which is contracted as "would've".

The Abstruse One

God you guys are awesome!

Would of, should of , just go eat a dick

Come on man this very thread is about cutting out the profanity and you have to say that? THat's pretty much just not funny, more like flipping off the admins Mr Platinum.

No I'm flipping off the abtruse one, interpret it as how ever you want. And Stop kissing Admin A$$

Adam, please close this fucking thread.

This is a privately owned forum. I think in light of that it's important to respect the wishes of the admin staff. Heck, I think it's important to respect the board rules of conduct.

Righto, old chap. Now stop this tomfoolery, and let's have some tea.

*Adjusts top hat and monocle*

yes I am a shining example of how I express my self to idiots. Now is'nt there something called freedom of speech in your country?

But yeah send over a spot of tea.

Wow. Several of you people really blow my mind.
