  AKAK thats too funny.

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

...maybe a perk fine might actually help? 

I can think of a few that would be out of perks in an hour or two.  Then what?

[633DH98]

Raise ENY just for them?

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

what are the seashells for?

[LLogann]

Does anybody bring up the fact that most of the foul language comes from the 6-16 yr olds...  Today's kids are being brought up by kids and thus... Do not have an adult teaching them how to act.

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

...There are lots of children that DO fly AH.  Show some self respect and keep the garbage off of vox/text.

[DDogs98]

Totally concur.  Doesn't it follow that our personal choices, good or bad, might be the ONLY example some folks get to see or hear?  The toughest guy I ever met was REAL QUIET about it.

The word used at the start of this thread is disturbing to me also.  I don't see striking it from the game vocabulary as Political Correctness.  It's more like compassionate to do so. 

This community is famous for some real creative phaseology that is both hilarious and convicting.  We need not be profane or insensitive.  See?  I just knew there HAD TO BE a place for Brits and Texans!

Wish I could have responded 1st.....no one cares if you dont like the word raped, I suppose we could pass a law in the united states banning free speach, and then you might be happy.

Shmuck, for instance could be the next word with a negative  cona,,,conitation.<-------?

How about banning:

"I mugged his 109 like a thief in the night!"   

[angelsandair]

just gotta replace the word Raped w/ Pwned or Pwnt for PC or something

And Pwned/Pwnt makes them angrier than "I JUST RAPED YOU!!"

Could you please say this to me when you actually shoot my cartoon aircraft down/blow up my cartoon ground vehicle.   Seriously, please try to remember my request.   My "response" will be well worth it.

which one?  

[Masherbrum]

which one?  

"What which one?"

I will NEVER PM a single soul in a negative manner.   I haven't since I created my AH account in 2002.   

Just try to remember my request. 

[OOZ662]

For those of you who are classing this as a "purely PC issue" and rolling your eyes, I'd like to point out that if yourself or someone you knew and loved had ever been subjected to the kind of violation meant by the word in it's normal context, you too might feel a little uncomfortable with the word being thrown around as casually as it is.  (And as Forrest Gump would say - "That's all I have to say about that....")

Hasn't bothered me yet. I must be an odd one.

Harshest language I use is "Squeak squeak" as a vulgar language not against the young ones, but to those arm chair generals like drdeathx who everytime hears "Squeak squeak" on range when he talks goes into this rage with profanity that would make a sailor blush till next week.
