Cursing ======= Cursing should not be a problem here. We all know, for the most part, what constitutes rude and abusive language, and also, for the most part, most people don't wish to alienate everyone else on the game. However, just in case, this policy file exists to act as a guideline where common deceny cannot prevail, for whatever reason. Basically, just be aware of who is listening to what you are saying. The occasional "hell" or "damn" isn't really a problem, but beyond that, it becomes a different story. Cursing in shouts is frowned upon more than on any other line for the simple reason that mortals cannot turn shouts off, that is, they cannot ignore them. Cursing on the chat/blab lines is frowned upon, as well, but with a bit more leniency than in shouts. Recognize that if you are asked to tone down your cursing by other players that you must do so. Failure to do so constitutes harassment. (See info harassment) This applies to ANY line. Lastly, and this should really go without saying, if someone of a higher level (mortals, "higher level" implies immortals...Heroes don't have to listen to Legends, necessarily! ;) ) tells you to stop cursing, stop cursing. If you have a problem with this, refer it to a higher immortal. |
