Relaxation of swear filter

If I told you that would take half the fun out of it.

I'd imagine just stick away from things along the lines of racial slurs and you're OK.

I'm a devout follower of the Church of Ric Flair, praise be unto him, I find this very offensive.

Folks- Reminder that "Don't use it in OOC/Local against others" means on the forums, too. This was relaxed for roleplay and not for anything else. Adhere to the original post.

Have edited my original post purely by making a couple of points bigger and bolder; don't use it in OOC, don't use it in forums. It's for RP enhancement and not to turn this place into a ghetto

... don't use it in OOC, ... we don't really need to see it on the forums either.

Hello HollowWorlders!

It has been a little over three weeks since the relaxation of the swear filter went live. All in all, it has been treated with maturity by most of you. Staff haven't had to moderate OOC and Local chats as much as was feared, and I'm glad to be surprised. However, while the majority of players have used this new freedom tactfully, there are those that have taken it and run far past where it was intended to go and have crossed appropriate boundaries.

Yes, you can say shit and fuck in your RP now. But what has never been tolerated, and will continue to not be tolerated, is sexually explicit language. ERP (Erotic Roleplay) has been banned on the server, and if the sexually explicit language continues, then we will have to start treating said language in the same realm of ERP warnings and bans. I feel that it really shouldn't have to be said, but it seems that a reminder is needed. Talking about genitals, sexually explicit content, etc. is not something we intend to promote on the server. And based on the multiple reports received, it is not something many on the server wish to see either.

Another gentle reminder, while I'm on the topic of swearing- The swears are intended in Roleplay and not OOC. For the most part, you've been fine with that. But don't litter local with swears among your friends when you're in heavily populated areas of roleplay, such as the Crossroads, etc.

Thanks and keep it classy, friendos.
