I work in a job where I get cussed out a lot, told hurtful things, and their words are lies. In my job, its not my fault for why I must come and hear these things. Words are useful, hurtful and some neutral. I am guilty of having a twisted sense of humor and am a sinner, no doubt. I have used those words and others posting here most likely have too used their words in similar manners.
Point: it is a game, we can still have some decency and respect towards each other on the forum. We can still use better words to say I don't like you or I don't care for your opinion and be done. Yes, its a war game, we can use some fighting words, but some words should be left to the other message means and not the forum. And, yes since the game is setup the way the game is, you can't always fight and be done (ie.. WL).
Ladies and Gents, have your fun, know the limits, and be aware words are way more powerful than real world nukes and threats of WW3. Not knowing how to redirect the words' power can be worse than the words themselves. Of course that usually means those words back fire on the ill worded person. both sides have a choice, you can wipe the dust of your feet if you are offended or continue to read, being offended. the ones who like the crude, you can use your words how you want. if it breaks the game rules then the GM can also use his choices. Consequence hold no limit, whether they be good ones or bad ones. I guess choose wisely is the key.
And, I can't help myself, but do people really find marking up the bathroom stall with stupid things fun? I'd rather read the newspaper honestly, though its not always much better. LOL
