Why do servers kick you for cuss words?
type: item
description: I am tired of playing a game, saying, "AWWW FUCK I HAD U BITCH!!1!1" or something and getting kicked for "No swearing in our server!" W T F If you are on the internet you already know most if not all cuss words, so I say FUCK YOU! To any server who kicks for that, I can see if you get out of hand with it but... Come on thats fucking stupid.

description: Personally I don't see the need to type out the curse words when I could just say them. Maybe some people get some kind of thrill out of it because their parents are around and don't like you cursing, but I just can't understand how typing out "bad words" can make someone feel any better. I'd rather just get on with the game.

description: Well you see, this is a game about grizzled global peacekeeping forces engaged in years of struggle with a centuries-old terrorist pseudo-religious organization bent not only on world domination but the elimination of socio-political enemies as well as democracy-supportive villagers (re: scene of Nod rounding up and torching peasants with a flame tank, operating torture-and-brainwashing camps for civilians and prisoners alike, etc)and the literal and figurative mutation of society and is rated only for older teenagers and above to be playing it, with online play as a focus, where they try to kill each other using not only bullets, but also flamethrowers, shards of sharp crystal, chemical weapon sprays, nuclear weaponry, and brutal run-downs with light-to-heavy vehicles and even helicopters. Obviously, in this scenario, there is NO PLACE FOR PROFANE LANGUAGE. It could corrupt the youth, and cause the elementary and middle-school aged children who are allowed to play by unresponsible parents to perhaps emulate this learned behavior and SWEAR UNDER SITUATIONS OF STRESS AND/OR EXCITEMENT. Entirely intolerable. We can't have profanity fucking up our youth's experience in such a game, obviously. And don't even THINK of suggesting players who dislike profanity should actually employ the built-in language filter; that's like asking them to take proactive responsibility for, and making a simple sacrifice (push butan recv filtr) towards acheiving their own desired gameplay experience instead of simply forcing their morals onto others. Seriously, grow up, and stop complaining. I don't want to hear you telling me how you "kicked Nod's asses" while I'm attempting to fire tiberium gel rounds all over this minimally armed technician who was recruited from his previous civilian occupation and is just in this position to earn some money for his kids who live in a third world country with poor opportunity for application of his technological skills outside of the state-owned telecom …

description: You know, if you just page the server and ask nicely, a mod will usually give you a reserved slot to get in the server when it's full. I say, if your parenting skills rely on some random server owner kicking people AFTER they say the tainted words, then you have more issues. I fucking like to fucking swear, and so long as you're not verbally attacking someone, then have a fucking ball.

description: Amazingly enough, some server-owners do not enjoy seeing cuss words on their screen and/or have children playing it.. I do know it sounds kinda wierd that they're killing people and complaining about it but when most people play video games they're not like "HEY IM GONNA KILL SO-N-SO".. They're like "HEY THATS THE BAD GUY!!11" and it doesn't really affect them. Some people believe that when children see "bad words", they might copy them. Also some people just don't cuss and don't like anything about it. Yeah, there IS cussing all over the place but their server is the place where they can enforce a rule of no cussing, and they have every right to, it is their server after all. Imo, you should either play on servers that allow cussing, or just don't cuss in chat while you're playing on that server. Seriously.. If there's a rule saying there's no cussing and you break it, they have a pretty good reason to kick you. Yeah, it might be a dumb rule, but it is their server. I think some servers have retarded rules but I'll follow their rules while I'm in that server.. If I don't and get kicked, its my fault. Personally, I don't give a shit. I just posted that because noone is answering why with a valid reason. :[ I'd let you guys swear in my server but unfortunately I don't own one and there isn't really a need for one lol

description: c0vert7 wrote on Sat, 17 March 2007 04:46 UNrules banned me for saying 2 cuss words. So I cussed there forums out and they banned me from there too. Would you abide by the rules of any other server that you play on? A server owner pays for the server therefore has the right to make any rule. I feel they are then duly entitled to enforce any rule that they impose. If it's a no swearing rule then so be it. If players do not like the server rules then they are free to move to a server that suits them. But to return to the forum is demonstrating a little immaturity 2 cuss words would have got you a warning from IRC @ UN and not a ban. Tell the truth and folk will not laugh. However the mistake was to go back and cuss the forum. How does that make you feel? Why did you wish to return and cuss them? What were you hoping to achieve by your actions? How often do you do this on other servers when you do not agree with a single rule? ps. Do not take offence as I am also banned from the UN forum. Why? For always giving an alternative thought to any discussion even if I did not personally agree with the thought.

description: Quote: Why do servers kick you for cuss words? Because their rules state 'no swearing' and you do swear. It's like when their rules state 'no obelisk walking' and you oby walk. Or when it says 'no cheaing' and you cheat. Or when it says 'no wall jumping' and you start wall jumping. That's the only reply to your question. Now if you do not agree with the rules, then obviously it's not very smart to play there.

description: As much as I am against corruption of youth, I don't think a few swears will do that. I was 7 when I started swearing, by 10 I was swearing profusely. (I have since gotten it under control.) Movies and TV got me saying swears, and by the time I was on the internet regularly (round 12 or 13), it was no big deal. Swearing today is so common place that swears are barely bad words anymore, rather strong expressions of emotion or feeling towards something. I think if you REALLY wanted to corrupt the youth, show em porn. THAT will corrupt them.

description: First off, I was banned, so I asked on there forums with something along the lines of "Why the fuck was I banned for saying 2 fucking swear words" I like my cuss words. They even banned corpgus for having the setjoin !set my stallion free (stallion = another player) they also banned stallion I think it was for having the setjoin f0rking forkers or something like that. P.S when I first went there I didnt know about the rule, so they warned me. Right after I get warned I was kicked. So I came back in to say why the fuck was I kicked after you already warned me. And asked how it was a warning so I got banned.

description: Just so we're clear, server owners are free to set whatever rules they like. The discussion here is whether or not they should have that rule. But only they can change their minds. No one can force them to allow people to swear. I will defend to the death a server owner's right to have whatever rules he likes. I just don't have to agree with them. I don't play on servers whose rules I do not like.

description: We recently experimented with our language filter. The results: 1. Kick on bad language causes people to complain the server is too strict, but leads to less heated arguments 2. No language filter causes less complaints but more heated arguments 3. Warn for language (3rd warn = kick) acts as a decent way to stop people swearing without having as many "too strict" complaints End result we've stuck with warn for language and it seems to work well.

If you feel the need to fill the world with your words then do so verbally at home but don't blather it out infront of everyone. If you want to chat you can actually talk, there is no need to start cursing and swearing your face off for no reason. It is a bad habit and something not worth your time. I use warnings on our server and it is a fair system. 3 warnings and you earn yourself a qkick. Keep it up and it will kick or even ban you.

W T F If you are on the internet you already know most if not all cuss words, so I say FUCK YOU! To any server who kicks for that, I can see if you get out of hand with it but... Come on thats fucking stupid. We don't like swearing in our server due to the wide age range of people that play in it. So in your server do you prevent mass murder as well? Are your players not allowed to shoot at each other or blow things up? Do they have to keep that at home as well? To say swearing is bad but violance is ok is fucking retarded.

We don't let people get out of hand with verbal abuse or anything... we just don't shit ourselves when someone wants to sprinkle their conversation with fucking swear words.

description: Imitation violence and real-life swearing are two completely different levels. (I would agree if it were comparing real-life violence and real-life swearing) One is imitation, not to mention the whole point behind playing the game in the first place. You purchase the game knowing the violence will occur. I, for one, applaud those servers who take a stand against it. There is nothing wrong with allowing people to swear (I help administer N00bstories, and they allow it), but to complain because servers disallow it is, well, retarded in itself. Say to yourself "Oh no! They won't let me swear!" and see how irrelevant it actually is. Simply put, if you're not allowed to swear, then don't. It won't kill you to stay silent or change what you would say. Or, don't play there if being unable to swear is going to ruin your experience like that.

description: I think the point was already brought up that we know that server owners can do what the fuck they like. Think the point of this thread, if it has one, is to know why it would make sense to disallow swearing if the supposed reason for it is because of younger children who are exposed to the violence this game presents. I don't know. Maybe parents think that if they tell children that it's important not to swear, that it's ok not to teach kids the difference between reality and real life

description: I have no problem respecting someone's rules but I'm just horrible at watching my fucking mouth. I work in an office with adults and we all swear. I live at home with two adult guys and we swear. I am very rarely around children so I don't give a shit what words I say almost all of the time. Pretty much every time I'm on a moderated server, I get warned or kicked. Another problem is, where's the fucking line? Is "ass" allowed? Is "hell" allowed" Is "damn" allowed? These are generally considered "less" bad than words like "fuck" and "shit". Then there are other words that are even more questionable like "gay" and "fag". I stay away from those servers because I don't have time to fucking check every word I fucking type to make sure I didn't say something that might get me a warning.

description: I used to play in UN and they allowed me to say at least Damn, Hell, and Ass. As long as it wasn't in spite I think. I didn't really push the envelope with it either. I prefer other words to swear words most of the time.

Of course we don't: -Prevent Mass Murder -People shooting at each other -People blowing things up The kind of ridiculus language inflitrating people's minds these days can just stay out of the server that's all. We are just trying to cut down on people going off into the extreme. We don't add every word we can think of to the list. I admit it is not easy to decide which words you should add to the list but we only put the most obvious, slanderous ones.

description: I'm around people who swear all the time. It doesn't mean I have to do it. With the exception of hearing a word for the first time and asking what it meant, I have never sworn. Quote: Is "ass" allowed? Is "hell" allowed" Is "damn" allowed? Just to answer for the sake of answering, if it were up to me, no. I consider those to be "swear words" as well. Unless it's used as a proper noun, there would be no reason to say it. (ie. When talking about Heaven and Hell, it's a proper noun, and no real way around it.)
