Language,inappropriate text,kids online

The written and spoken language on local chat and squad channel is both immature and inappropriate.

Our Birds of Prey are totally out of control.  Falcnwng is talking about sex and body parts and Dystve is saying the F word in every other sentence. Or the discussions/references on getting stoned or drunk.

Even on this chat forum, this clown Karaya (who I understand is an adult) is cursing and carrying on with most of the posts.

If you don't think this a problem, ask VansCrew or Allied how old they are, not to mention the even younger "squeakers".

In this age of the internet, you are being recorded and screen shots are taken.  I word to the wise..... clean it up gents.

very INteresting post...I hope you get some good replies.

Again, I request that the leadership of this squad set the example and clean it up.

LOL this dude is obviously messing with you all. Best thing about the Internet is nobody can see you laugh typing in anticipation of people jumping in both feet first and taking ridiculous things like this seriously.

The bad thing Marine, is you are probably right, but I think he just lit the fire that a lot of people were waiting on. It's not just him that has said anything, only 1 smart/dumb enuff to do it thus far that I know of, but a lot of people are getting sick of the whines.

My $00.02......
I have 2 young daughters, I try not to cuss around the house though some times they slide out (after all I am a human being stuck in this imperfect Earthly body).  While playing this GAME I for starters wear a head set, so that IF by chance something is said I am the only one to hear it.  For second, if I am playing with my girl on my knee I simply say "hey y'all my kids here." and people keep it "G" rated till I give the all clear.  Lastly the only words that really "offend" me are those that use the Lord's name in vain, and again all I have to do is ask nicely, and people stop and in most cases apologise.  So I guess what I am trying to say is use common sense, wear a head set and if something bothers you come out and ask nicely, do not jump straight to ".report".  If things are still unsatisfactory to you just leave that vox channel or mute the person.  So while I am amused at this threads length, fellas let us just take it upon ourselves to ignore the rantings of one malcontent whoom has an apparent hard on for someone in the BoP's leadership.  He is a coward hiding behind a shade account, not to mention the possability that this is a troll just to get a rise out of us all.
Ok, im done  

Ps. good fishing with this thread there xbishwhatever, you got alot of nibbles. I hope your satisfied and reach your catch limit so the rest of us no longer have to deal with your "entertaining" yourself.

This seems to be centering around a "kids" thing, when it should just be a matter of common decency not to swear around other people who might find it offensive, whether on a sidewalk or in K-Mart or in our game.  The squad channel is private, the range channel is not. The later should be treated a little more gingerly. 'nuff said!

[DaddyAck]

Is that not what I said?

[Sweet2th]

JAzz, you shop at K-Mart? is there even a K-Mart still open?

I would have thought Wal-Mart gobbled them all up.

This thread was NOT about the range channel, but a channel that has long been inhabited by a certain large squadron.

Sorry, I didn't realize that.  But if it's a squad channel, why not let them take care of their own, through proper squad protocal? What do the rest of us care what is happening on a channel we are not listening to. Am I still missing the point?  And if so, point me to the thread where I can complain about excessive swearing on the range cannel.

Wow I just found this thread and got a good laugh out of reading 7 pages of posts about foul language in aces High.

Well I couldn't help but volunteer my 2 cents.


First of a few of the facts.
1 - I am a BOP and proud of it.
2 - I don't curse or use bad language (At least I try not to, maybe I've slipped up once a month at most.)
3 - I don't approve of my kids hearing bad language and don't approve of them using bad language.
4 - My family has currently 5 online game accounts that contain voice chat and my kids play on some of those accounts.  As a responsible parent I am aware what guilds, groups & channels my kids join.  As a responsible parent and family we monitor and control what we expose our selves and our Kids to.
5 - I have 4 daughters.

 Now regarding the context of this thread.
#1 Range VOX : Now In aces high I witnessed people regularly ask people to keep Range VOX to a respectable level.  This includes not only cursing but general chitchat as well.  Particularly in a battle area.  Bad language is seldom herd on the Range Vox and when it is, usually someone asks the guilty party to be more careful and I've never heard anyone refuse to comply with such a request on the range channel.
#2 BOPS & their channel : Well there is not defending the language herd on the BOP channel.  It is at times at a level that I would personally prefer it not be but I'm an adult and I make the choice to be on that channel.   As for my kids, I make sure I have my headphones on any time I'm tuned into BOP channels.  And I'd never let my Kids join a channel like the BOP's channel & or squad.  Now as for any parent who does allow their kids to join a squad or channel like BOP's I think you as a parent , ... , well actually I'm not going to pass judgment on any parent as far as what they allow or don't allow their kids to do or participate in.  But what I do say is this.  If you don't know what your kids are doing then you’re not a fully responsible parent.  Especially if you don't know what your kids are paying to participate in.

The only channel a squad can call theirs is the "4 Squad" channel.
A numbered channel a squad chooses to use, whatever the size of that squad, is not theirs.
