Well, I've been playing a bit on the server the last few days, and one of the things I like about it is the trash talking and what not. It reminds me of our old mohaa server. This kind of thing no longer happens on MOB servers. We generally expect people to "play nice". I don't know if this attitude will sit well with the servers current regulars. If that's how they like to play, I think we should keep it that way. I would like the FS guys to fill us in on their rules and regulations so that we know how things were run on their server.
Well, what do you guys think?

Ah, yes, one of the guys who started playing there last month brought in his "sit down" bind, and next thing you know, we were all saying it, lol.

I dunno guys, it was very freeing in the beginning, to have a server where you could swear and not get kicked. But many times I've thought about stopping or limiting the cursing, because it really can affect the "tone" of the server, making it sort of mean-spirited and creepy.

I always tried to bring the hammer down on guys who used cursing as part of personal attacks on other players. And I never allowed racial or oother personal slurs. But once you allow cursing, the horse is sort of out of the barn in many ways, know what I mean?

You also don't want to soil the good {MOB} name and reputation. Honor is something hard-earned and tough to get back once it's gone.

On top of this, these days you have to be careful about minors coming into a public venue that is raunchy. A clan I was friends with were threatened with a lawsuit by parents of a minor who found that cursing and porno avitars and sigs were allowed in the clan's forums. It was no end of grief for the clan's leaders for quite a while there.

Just my two cents.
