not using the term "raped" is probably good idea, as to not subject the sub-15 year old players to something that "vulgar"

problem is, its mostly the sub-15 year olds that use such terminology...

myself on the other hand.. I never swear

Can I still think to myself "I'm screwed"?

For me it all boils down to "would I say it infront of a six year old".

I "try" to use that guidline before I type/say anything in AcesHigh.

When my kiddo's were young, they would sit there for hours and watch me fly.  There are lots of children that DO fly AH.  Show some self respect and keep the garbage off of vox/text.

That would be nice, however some need to learn NOT to vox and cuss people out randomly - I made mistake of letting my niece play and she rammed someone not knowing what would happen, next thing I know certain someone screaming profanity over vox.
Seriously just shows the class some have when they do this - one thing to whine on 200 but to cuss someone out using pretty harsh langauge is not what a 7 yr old girl needs to hear.

txt buffer language is not acceptable as it is right now.

I come from "another sim" , with with a more mature community.
In that sim the language many use here would be reported with a screeenshot, and players will be warned/banned

Is that a bad idea for AH to apply ?

We dont need it here imo.

Let me guess...Microsoft FS?  If so, the ATCs on there are the most pedantic and ana* bunch of people I've ever spoken to online.  Some of the people are fine, but like here, others are batty.

As to this topic, I don't swear on the text at all (I haven't worked VOX out yet, but I'll do my best not to there either), but I do use phrases like "ace pilot" "COMMUNARD" etc, but usually only on the country channel.  A notable exception to this was a few nights ago, but sorry about that if it offended you and it won't happen again.

My 9yr. old son would like to fly online, and because of the occasional run in with choice language, I have a certain trepidation. He's not completely foreign to foul language (as I have slipped up from time to time ), but that doesn't make it okay.

   "You are fined ten credits for violation of the Verbal Morality Statute"   

...maybe a perk fine might actually help? 

[Banshee7]

some people would run out of perks fast

"So much for the three seashells."

[Ack-Ack]

So not to offend Serenity I should no longer say, "I'm all over your arse like a priest and you're the alter boy"?
