look in the mirror and tell yourself, " I can be more than an ignorant fool, I will be better & set a better example for the AH community"!

1st time in a long time I heard so many F-Bombs, and other obscenitys.....

and some people really do not take that SOB word lightly........ think before you speak

I agree totally, you have some by nature that curse every other word.  When I'm called a SOB thats where I draw the line even if I know the person.  This guy I've never even spoke to before, using any language that is not in the english dictionary is very disrespectful.  He did appoligize and I don't think he meant anything bad about it but it still goes back to the point you made (watch your language).

I was there for only 2 rounds and I sent dogg a pm about a players language.

It surprised me.

Normally that is not an issue in KOTH.

No it isnt, I normally try to fly 1 a month and I think some just had alittle to much to drink.  1 of the drunks ones turned right in front of me before the merge and gave me his 6 right off maybe thats why I won  :D

Pappy Boyington was known to fly with SEVERE hangovers, (and might have even had a bottle stashed in the cockpit)

Calling people ignorant for having passion is ignorant in itself.
Accidents happen, HUMANS get excited...

It isnt the Bible study hour, its a mass of diffrent personality's passionatly competing for the top spot.
Perhaps children should be eliminated from the event..., OR perhaps we should be more able to exercise our free speech rights as adults without being vilified for the occasional slip of the tounge?

Its not an excuse..., just reality.
Honestly if you take offense to a word, then it isnt the person that utterd it that is at fault, but the person whom takes offence... where does censorship end?, what is allowed, and what isnt?
Mabey we all need to grow up just a little bit, and realise its adults that play this game, and no one is harmed by words.

No one was critical of anyone else, and no one was vulgar to another player in any way, yet SOMHOW we still failed to be civil?
I reject this idea.., the last KOTH was a VERY possitive experience, and I personaly came away with a better understanding of whom the competition was, and we all got along VERY well despite the occasional utterance.

<S>, I look forward to the next addition, <S>! :rock

What a load of crap. If HTC wanted any and all language used there wouldn't be a bad word filter or a way to report people. We play in HiTech's house and his rules apply.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

I agree with TequilaChaser's remarks totally.  KOTH has a few rules that clash with some peoples MA style of play and they tend to forget where they are.  Had a great time at the KOTH <S> to all.  I will try to make it more often because it is a great way to improve your skills.
