Jack says: I edited the list with the "really bad ones" remaining. These should not ever be used on the forums! (I've starred out vowels on the really awful ones I'm not ever comfortable seeing on these forums, ever in an instructional purpose.)

Okay, this is a list of words you are not allowed to use on the site EVER:

B*tch
F*ck
Bastard
Sh*t
Ass(hole)
Pussy
N*gger (and other horrible racial epithets)
F*gg*t

This will constantly be added onto by suggestions from mods and more experienced members. (Veterans)

Hmm... Let's see if Jack has any thoughts to add to this list. And let's not forget a word that starts with A and rhymes with Bass. And the variant with Hole.

Mysterious F.

Okay. Also, onviously, any follow-ups to the word (pissy or pissed is still piss) are not execpted either.

Somebody doesn't have to be a veteran to be able to have a good idea.

Okay, let me say something. Unless you got permission from Jack himself, you have no place to tell members what they can and cannot say. Of course those words are in common sense swear words, many of us dont consider "piss" a bad word. Also, did Jack omit "damn" and "hell"? Because I dont want the members getting comfortable saying that without Jack's hand in this. This topic is not to be taken seriously until further word from Jack. Thankyou Akatsuki, but we really should consult the Administrator before making big changes and announcements like this.

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.

Jack admitted it with the original rules topic.

Also, Veterans, particularily ones that haven't caused trouble, usually come up with good ideas, while the newbies sometimes get confused with site rules. (I had to read them over for a few days before I realized what they were and their EXACT definition)

The only reason I made this was because several members were complaining about the lack of this list. It should be common sense what does and doesn't count as a cuss word, only damn and hell were said to be exceptions in some cases. Yes, piss is a cuss word. I really just wnated for every member to stop complaining about it even thouhg it should be in their knowledge already. Isn't that right, JQ?  >:(

Seriously, it got over-annoying.

Gamefreak

But that doesn't mean that they ALL will have that problem.

DW

yes, I don't think I had any problems when I was new :-\ but if you have talked to Jack, I think it should be okay...I wish he would post himself so we can be sure though...also, what about...erm...the word that starts with a p and rhymes with wussy?

I know, but NOT all do not.

Also, Shika, I forgot that one.

I did not talk to Jack, but, ZV, these are all sure fire words that are banned.

I'm new and I don't think I have any issues... ??? ...unless I'm mistaken. :-X

Mysterious F.

Oh, I'm very happy !SOMEBODY! understands.  :)

Commodore Axilon

What about slurs? You know like the N-word and whatnot?

phantompig

Wow...I never had a problem with prohibiting profanity...but just seeing a list of words that I can't ever use...it's just frightening...slowly evolving into a world where freedom is defined by the government man...which is already a reality...but it's a relatively okay definition.
