Post subject:  Important - Offensive Material Found!

Calan, you mentioned reporting offensive material to you so that nobody
would be offended on the WoHP server.

Flip open your US edition of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows...

... page 736...
... second paragraph...
... fifth word.

I think it's a shame that JK Rowling would use naughty language, you'd
think she'd be civilized and understand that naughty no-no words can hurt
sensitive eyes and ears.

I eagerly await what you intend to do about this disgrace to the purely
written word.

Your humble servant in censorship,
Nik.

*Thinks this post will be censored.* :roll:

Haha, Nik. Don't you know that's why we had to ban JKR from the mod ages ago? She's such a potty mouth. Plus, she all about the cybering. Kept trying to tell everyone how to RP their characters, too. I think she went by "Chloe."

Ok? Well, I guess you have a point... swearing is allowed now, especially when it's bothering another player... I mean seriously, if it's in the books... Can't argue with that.

Anyone who doesn't swear gets banned. It's cannon.

(sarcasm, for those who can't seem to tell)

I fail to see why people think this is about the words rather than a basic respect for another human. It's easy enough not to swear.

I could just as easily argue that they're not respecting me by showing
enough maturity to deal with naughty no-no language.

Oh, and add to the list of banned stuff:

Violence,

Implied sexuality (Harry and Ginny'd be a horrible couple, anyway),

IC Rudeness (yes, it really does offend people!
http://www.wohp.net/modules.php?name=Fo ... opic&t=864),

Cliques,

Racism (Muggles, Mudbloods, Purebloods, Race, Gender, etc).

This really is...

... Harry Potter t3h m0st AWESOMESTEST EVAH!

*Convinced at least JB'll find that amusing.*

Yep, Nik. Sounds like it's time for a Shova-style splinter mod for us "strict interpretation" types. :P

My only concern is that one of those rules will prevent one of my favorite players from visiting at all.

*Cries* I won't be able to visit at all!

And no, I'm not willing to change my sexist, sexual, racist, potty-mouthed stoner.

*Suddenly convinced he's not one of Jable's favorite players*

It fits his character? I, personally, think it's okay as long as it's properly roledplayed, which I'd say it is with Brennan. Of course, I'm just a lowly player and the DMs decide, but ehh.. Maybe simply try watch it a bit around people you don't know, and only swear/whatever around people you know it wont bother?

What about wizard swears?

Whatever, you're all just Voldermort Nipples.

*Adds his two cents, for no reason :P*

It's supposed to be PG-13 right? Well I've heard various swear words in PG-13 movies, I'm not sure about the rest of you. The only word I've -never- heard in PG-13 is f***(I'm sure you know the word ;) so I'll leave it censored like this.)

The only thing is that in PG-13 movies, while there is swearing, it's not an insane amount.


Just my two cents...two knuts...whatever you want to call it. Advice. Yeah, advice...

But....but...that's Bren's favorite word!

*Snaps fingers* I got it! I'll just not curse around DMs other than Ree!
