Sure, Everyone's Profanity Counter limit is 0. Happy?

Boooo, that's not a limit. It needs to be like 5 or 10 or side-ways 8

Because the game is rated like 8+ or something? And no we don't want to change that.  

I'm not sure if your aware of this but kids at the age of five are always caught cussing, this is our future generation to you.

Try and play Black Ops 1 or 2 and see all the kids that be cussing in multiplayer mode.

That doesn't mean we should encourage them by allowing them to do so. Call of Duty is rated 18+ for a reason, in the same way Graal is rated 8+ and isn't rated 18+ for a reason. Increasing the minimum age would almost certainly decrease the playercount if it was enforced, pretty certain 90% of players are under 18.

Working on Zone, I've met my fair share of younglings at least under the age of 11.

Ahahahaha, oh boy aren't you in for a surprise! Every little **** I've met has said a good 8+ cusses in coherent sentences. Especially kids in town. Holy god they're horrible! I was walking by when I heard these two 6 year old kids cussing out a kid younger than them calling him racial slurs and everything.  

Just because kids you know swear, doesn't mean we should encourage it; as stated above. You hear a kid saying the word ****? Does that automatically mean that all kids cuss and we should just support it and promote it in Graal? No, it doesn't.

You guys have some really dumb logic here, damn.

Why not? Have them learn for themselves what to say to and what not to say to people, instead of coddling them.  

I am of the belief that swear words are there to embellish a point, to bring attention the severity of an issue, or to be seen as casually comfortable with something. Words are powerful things, and kids love to get into anything that is locked away from them.

I know Graal doesn't care about COPPA laws, and I doubt the Graalian forum hosts do either, but there is a legal limit for anyone using these kinds of services; you cannot be under 13 and save profile information such as age, gender, etc. if your web service is anywhere hosted in the United States.

None of that is important, really, but it does give you a good idea of where to start for language: PG-13! So long as we're being American centric, anyhow.  

Graal is a MORPG. it is rated 9+ so swearing is not good because children aged 9+ play it

Children that also play CoD, Battle Field, GoW, etc. also play Graal and have a pretty big pool of curse words that they know, among other things. They also have tonnes of swag man.  

Are bad words really that big of a deal

They are just words after all  

Merrimack had it in the ****tionary.
