That's a copyright ok?

I don't think Admins should warn someone for cursing, UNLESS they are cursing towards another player.
I don't think it's because of that, but probably because the game is rated PEGI 7 and of course if players were allowed to use such language, the rating would obviously increase.
According to the pegi website:
>PEGI 7: Any game that would normally be rated at 3 but contains some possibly frightening scenes or sounds may be considered suitable in this category.
As a result of this, Graal has to limit the language use, or else it would fall under the PEGI 12.
>PEGI 12: Videogames that show violence of a slightly more graphic nature towards fantasy character and/or non graphic violence towards human-looking characters or recognisable animals, as well as videogames that show nudity of a slightly more graphic nature would fall in this age category. Any bad language in this category must be mild (As you said it should be general use of curses, not towards players) and fall short of sexual expletives.
I guess Graal is just trying to avoid getting sued, but yeah Improve the quality of some staff. It's a growing problem.
lol you guys are still going on about this?
nothing is going to change.
this game has an age rating, i doubt management would ignore this and remove censorship for older players all the while loosing potential younger players because of parents not allowing them to play a game where people are swearing off their heads.
of course their could be a censorship toggle but even that would be a huge implementation for an already fine system, in the eyes of management at least.
if you truly think of yourself as mature then a language filter shouldn't bother you as it's not necessary to swear now is it?
Hex,
You can't have a managable rating in an online game - especially one with chat. It's nearly impossible to monitor everything especially when there are ways around the curse filter.
Thus why this is noted by the ESRB, 'Gameplay is subject to change during Online play'.
You want to know why the demographic is a lower age than a higher age? Because of the child monitors on the game.
You stated well that's a contradiction because I can say that's the same reason why there is a majority of young kids.
There really isn't an issue with the censorship toggle in my eyes as I feel it would clear up a lot of misunderstandings with the false jailings from the rising issue of PR's lately. I think it is balanced between both age groups.
In the last paragraph, to summarize it; you basically say that 'Those who curse are immature.' Let's be real here, cursing is used constantly by adults in the mature age group - I'm sure you've cursed before.
Asirader is 18 now he's a big boy
Let him curse in peace
Sure it's impossible to monitor and 100% eliminate cursing, but a filter blocks a lot of it in a game where as you say there is a "majority of young kids".
What do you mean false jailings? There is a rule against swearing, if you swear you'll get punished. Just because you don't think such words aren't bad doesn't mean management nor kids do, neither you nor I are exempt from this.
Of course adults swear. But remember, that's in the real world, where they're allowed to swear without repercussion. This is a game with restrictions and rules against swearing. As many mature players have and continue to do simply use different words and you won't have such a problems, is that so hard for you?
:x careful, he might go on another one of his rants.
