At least the warning PM was nicely worded

So, aparently I can spam crap from my mouth all day, piss people off, call people all sorts of names....

But using the word "wanker" is enough to get me in "real trouble"... LMFAO!

They say wanker on public TV in the UK, ND has no clue....

Here is the original thread: IRC Dev Chat/Q&A - as it happens! - Page 10 - NetDevil Community

I was asking how many servers there would be, cause it seems like local servers, and then PvE and PvP per local.... Then I tried to colorfully name the servers...those names were:

US Pussified
US Hardcore
EU Wankers
EU Twits

I mean come on, it wasn't that bad....

Anyways, I wonder how many points until I get that temp ban thingy that G got....

JSR has given you no warnings. I don't understand.

That's okay I've got a two week ban haha apparently calling failatron a cunt isn't acceptable. Not that I care. I barely have internet access these days anyway.

No, we haven't banned you. Why are all you crazy people spreading lies about JSR? I should ban you for that.

Is that that "other site" where you go to cry about what happens on "the real" forums?

Re: So it finally happened. I got a point.

in fact..... ahh never mind.

Did write a post about whys and what nots, but whats the point. As this place has become the blind preaching to the blind let alone leading them.


LMAO this site changes fu*K to frag, but lets cunt in? I rest my case.

EDIT-As I have time before going to Hospital for yet another MRI, I’ll rewrite the post.

Swearing in the UK is not really socially acceptable and often people that over use it in every day conversation are normally seen to have low IQ or social standing.

Wanker.

it’s a swear/curse word, I know you don’t use it in the US but over here it’s a s bad a F*uck calling EU-Players Wankers is offensive, and it would seem some took offence to it.

As for being on TV, its only on TV after the nine o’clock water shed , and even then there is a limit on how many swear words can be used, this is England and yes on the whole we are a stiff tight arsed lot. Swear two many times on the TV and a flood of complaints from England’s middle classes will come screaming to the TV companies.

I used to have a T-Shirt that said *Cool as Fu*K and the Police tolled me to either take it off or turn it inside out.

You will also find offensive Graffiti being washed away a damn site quicker than no offensive. it’s a question of taste or social standards.

Its also one of the words you don’t say if front of little kids, old ladies and in general any time your making civil conversation.

Cunt.

Now this word is a whole different phenomena. It’s the big Taboo the big no.

Not sure how you use it in the US but here it’s the one that you will very rarely see on TV, and then I can only think of twice or three times I have seen it and then I can only think of one that comes to mind and that is Snatch, when Brick Top ( Mike Ford) is asking the two likely lads if they know what Nemesis means. Its not used in media, maybe see it in books but never any other.

As for seeing it in a TV production I can’t think or have never seen it used.

It’s the most disparaging and offensive word in our langue. If I had said this in front of my Foster parents as a kid I would have got ten tone of crap knocked out of me, hell I still can’t say It in front of my mum.


Calling some one Cunt is the insults of insults roughly meaning you wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire.

I’m sure Dailitron really doesn’t care what Sephiroth thinks of him and I’m sure the feeling is mutual, hell I think there are lot of Cunts around here and over on the Jumpgate Evolution forums, but I don’t go around telling people that, well I do but I use slang for it.

Sure call people what you want I really couldn’t give a crap as I personally have no problem with swear words they are after all just words. But if call some one a Cunt on a forum run by a company trying to promote a game that is trying to attract customers form all warps of life and off varying social back grounds and ages then what do you expect?

Not every one is as liberal as the next man.

That'll never happen, Awen loves my lolcats. But if you bait me enough you might get me to go off the handle on you, and that'll work.

Which doesn't matter. The casual observer has no idea what you are talking about and will assume you are referring to this site. Please be more specific in the future. Thanks.

As to the complaints about this site that are thrown in by people that come by every two weeks to do that very specific thing. STFU and don't go to places you don't like. Enough said, no one cares what you think.

Her moderating is so inconsistent. Netburn gets a point and I get a straight up two week ban without any warnings?

Not that I care. After today I can't say for sure when I'll even be on the internet next for all I know it might not be until the ban is lifted :P
