Language, people.


Sorry, I forgot, we're supposed to respect all the little kiddies who can't take swearing.

...that rule is awful, seriously -_-

I wouldn't call it a rule... I'd go more along the lines of "common decency" or something like that.

...yeah, that does sound pretty lame.


To hell with common decency. If I'm pissed, I curse. I expect you to deal with it, not cry.

And Rethion, "no cursing" makes the site PG, not PG-13. There is plenty of cursing in PG-13 movies. "No cursing" basically degrades the site to the level of little kids. Plus, there's a huge grey area on cursing - some people consider "Jesus!" and "Goddamn" and "damn" to be cursing, yet they're allowed to say "damn" in the Harry Potter books =/

At the least, let's hold back some of the harsher ones, like the f-bomb. I can't see how that would be needed that badly anyway.

I found this to be funny. It is satire, but if you can't figure that out after reading it, well....

Sorry, but if you don't like my cursing, turn on the filter. It's there for a reason.

How is that rule awful? I think it's perfectly reasonable for a pg-13 site.


Cute out the 13 and yeah, I understand it. I recently saw a PG-13 movie that had sex in it, but it didn't go full out. As long as we dont go major on it I don't see the harm, really, I don't.


There is a movie that is rated R because the f-bomb is used about three times, and there is a romantic scene, but they show no sex. They way movies are rated makes very little sense.

Ah well...


JIMMY CRACKED CORN AND I CARE BECAUSE IT WAS MINE.


Gaia's content limit is pg-13. A guy at school got banned for 14 days for posting the pic on maddox's website that had a drawing of a nad. which is not even pg-13. I mean come on, they start Sex ed in elementery school... I'll admit that gaia is pretty laid back when it comes to language.

R there is not the same here. Your R is equivalent to our 18A, and besides, we rate less harshly because the parents aren't so stupid. Lots of cursing but no exposure still only warrants a 14A (your PG-13).

In Canada, our R is what you call NC-17, or in the past, "Rated X"

It's not that I personally have a problem with it. It's just that it's sort of disrespectful for a guild to be swarming with major profanity, and it's easier to keep it down while it's not a problem then it is to try to remove when it does become a problem.
