Why are two of the threads on the first page in this sub-forum violating forum-rules by cussing in the thread's name? Really?

I think he meant categorically "on top."

I just said that.

Thread Last Posted In = On Top

If you're talking about popularity, they're not. Those Lockdown tournament threads and the new enemies are hotter discussion than those threads.

OP is overreacting.

Of all the things we could do wrong you're complaining about cursing?

Two whiners swear, one of which doesn't even have 10 posts on the forums, and suddenly we're all to blame?

Goes to show that a group of peoples' public reputation and representation is equivalent to the least agreeable people in that group, regardless how small
The larger the group, the more imbeciles there are in said group, and the worse the group "appears".

TWO? All I see is "Danger

TWO? All I see is "Danger missions are god damn [scrap] and you know it, OOO!". Did the other get deleted?

@Hexzyle- Yes, I meant categorically. As in the threads "On Top". And I'm not blaming yall, just those who make those kinds of threads. It's a bit depressing though to see how low the community has gotten over the couple years since SK's release(not including beta). So yes, your above post is correct in a sense.

@Fehzor- Well, seeing as anything worse would be removed and the poster maybe possibly forum-banned, then yes. Because this is the only thing the GM's don't bother catching all the time.

Larry, I created this thread yesterday. Check the second page of the General Discussion.

EDIT: (The other is near the top of the first page actually.)

I think its because people get all defensive when others start cussing about stuff and MUST add their say in, even if it's already been said.
People can't refrain themselves from feeding the trolls.

Very true. I tend to stay away from this sub-forum, mainly because of the rage-fests that occur. But I will check on it to see what's new and what people are talking about, etc.

Actually, swearing is the one of the only offenses that does go punished. I've observed most of the rules go unpunished, but I myself have been warned for language when I made a thread about changing the language filter in game, as it disallows several words entirely- some of which are not even so awful in my opinion. I think theres some kind of bot for it, because they don't miss a curse word. Ever. Try it, post a thread consisting of swear words in the graveyard.

And spoil my good name? Nah. Yes, I've seen swearing punished before(not all the time), but in this case, the GM's should at least lock and graveyard those threads and send a warning to the OP's.
