BF2S Forums Language.

It's up to the server admins to decide what rules they will place on their server. Don't like it? Doesn't matter. YOU aren't paying for them to run their server. Want to cuss people out all day every day? Start your own server.

8.2 - Impose "no swearing rules". As an adult playing a game rated mature (13+), I understand that the responsibility of allowing children to be exposed to coarse language is up to the guidance of the parents.

You know, not everyone who doesn't want to hear someone swear up a storm is 13. There are quite a few people I know older than I am (22), that don't like it either. Just because you don't have a problem with it, doesn't mean everyone else should have to play your way, on a third parties server.

I'm sorry, I just found this entire post comical.  On the one hand, you say it's a server admin's right to enforce language rules.  On the other hand, he shouldn't enforce a "no language rules" rule, if he owned and leased servers (as... that's sort of the idea of his post... were he to lease servers to people, the type of EULA he'd like to give them).  C'mon now... it swings both ways.  If you own a server, you do with it as you please (given you stick to EA's EULA where running EA's software is concerned), if you lease a server, you stick to the owner's EULA, and EA's EULA where running EA's software is concerned.

FCC...

Yup... which is why, out of courtesy, you may wish not to offend others, but it should never be your mission in life.  Some people are just screwed up...  and luckily no one has a right not to be offended.

...bleep out words that have to do with marijuana like "indo"... a song called "Cocaine"... is not edited.

Oh this is easy to understand if you're a Black Helicoptor type.  Government conspiracy... marijuana is a drug which produced a lack of productivity, and must be eliminated, while Cocaine is the opposite... and while they can't make it legal, won't work too hard to cleanse its references from the social landscape.

Then again, "cocaine" is not slang, and it's much easier to argue any word not in the dictionary to be profane.

Finally... "Cocaine" is a song by Eric Clapton, a musician revered by myself, but also by most members of the generation likely to hold any position of authority within the FCC.  His Flyness, on the other hand, is just the type of musician that these same people would wish their children didn't like so much.

"Cocaine" has always suprised me, though...  generally I had always thought, espeically in that era, that you had to be more creative... such as the Beatles singing about diamonds and some chick up in the air...  of course, I always knew they were trippin' with that song, even before I realized that "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" was, in fact, LSD.


Oh... and I am remembering something from a Christmas or two ago, where I was trying to explain to my uncle why the latest "Grand Theft Auto" might not be appropriate for my young teen (I dunno... at the time maybe 13-14) cousin.  He was all asking about the swearing, and I was trying to explain, "No... the language isn't my biggest concern...  one way to heal yourself is with hookers."  And he says, "Oh... I think we discussed that... he said you don't see anything, they're just in the car together."  And I come back, "Well, I suppose that's true...  but when the moaning ends, and the car stops rocking side-to-side violently, and she gets out, it is common practice to beat her to a bloody pulp, to steal your money back, and maybe a little more."  The kid got the game, ROFL.  (Disclaimer: I LOVE the GTA games... I just don't think anyone under about 17, or with any dangerous mental condition should be allowed anywhere near them, lol).

I'm sorry, I just found this entire post comical.  On the one hand, you say it's a server admin's right to enforce language rules.  On the other hand, he shouldn't enforce a "no language rules" rule, if he owned and leased servers (as... that's sort of the idea of his post... were he to lease servers to people, the type of EULA he'd like to give them).  C'mon now... it swings both ways.  If you own a server, you do with it as you please (given you stick to EA's EULA where running EA's software is concerned), if you lease a server, you stick to the owner's EULA, and EA's EULA where running EA's software is concerned.

Allow me to clarify.

There is certain language that is legal and certain language that is illegal. For example, cursing is legal. Hate speech or racism is not (depending on the country, I would assume that the law binds the server on the ground that the server is physically manifest in). Keep in mind that this does not include simple opinions, for example "black people are not my favored type of folk" is not really considered hate speech, but "I will kill all blacks!" is.

It can get very difficult and convoluted, so to simplify it for the common man, in the EULA, I refer to the caveat of enforcing language to ONLY be in the case that the language in question is completely and uttering causing havoc on the server and disturbing the peace. Under no cases is some person blurting out a simple "fucking noob toober" or similar statement a cause for them to be kicked.

Regardless of whether you own or lease a server, there should be a guideline EULA that supercedes both the wishes of the owner or the leaser, whether they agree with it or not at a personal level. This is to prevent unnecessary interruptions to people's quality of play.

/second.

Systray, my good friend, I fucking understand you all that way!
I mean fuck, it's not like these people can't handle the damn words! Everyone knows them, and noone excepting old people are offended by them. Everyone uses them; the seven-year-old that I babysit swears like a trooper.
And another thing, in fucking Battlefield you are playing a game in which you murderously kill people repetedly with a smile on your face, yet swearing is considered to be bad??? Holy fuck dude, these PC motherfuckers try to be 'good citizens' and protect the delicate ears of people who swear just as much as everyone else. What the Hell is going on??

In closing I say this to you sensitive admins, and people who put 'naughty-word-protectors' on servers.

Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you.

Sorry for the mild spamming in that last part.

The End. - A Tyferra rant.

P.S: You know I actually just copy/pasted Systray's ending and replaced his name with mine. Pretty clever!

Edit: Well put <{SoE}>Agamemnar. Very well put.

Edit X2: I wish I knew how to get a video snippet on the internet. I'd put Peter Griffin's, (Family Guy,) song about the "Freakin' FCC."

I know this has been said 1000 times,and I hope it's said 1000 more. Today I was playing on the LLC (late late crew) server on Ghost Town. A guy was on the hotel in a blackhawk raping the shit out of everyone not giving anyone a chance to kill him. The AA vehicles were all in the corner of the map surrounded by supply boxes and we couldn't move 3 feet without dying. I cussed him out. I got banned. The end. It's a war game: Soldiers say "Fuck". "Game experience may change during online play" meaning it's not rated T for teen past single player. The worst part was all the admin said was: "That's a ban". No warnings. Well here's to you, Late late crew:

Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you.

sorry to hear about your problem auto admin is on and it will auto ban first time everytime. we allow alot of things.stealing vech even base rapeing is tolerated [note not liked but we put up with it.] languge/bunny hopping/commading in a vech. are forbidden we post rules at our web site and in game. sadly noone seems to
read rules and assume they can do what ever they want in someone elses house. i have a solution pay out 300.00 a month for a sever and a teamspeck server and then you have the power to make any rules you want. keep in mind the rules you make you will have to enforce which takes away from your gaming time and
if the players dont like your rules your sever maybe empty alot. we have enough members and regulars this dosnt seem to be a problem now but it could happen with new games coming out all the time. LLC has been
around since MOH days the games change and we change with it but any clan that has 5 years under its belt is
gonna make sure the public has somewhere to play at our expense.

Fucking people who resurrect ancient threads.

This was started last November.....this is just an LLC admin trying to "repair" his clans rep.

What I find amusing, is that people on these forums flame and derail topics with SEARCH FOR THIS, AND SEARCH FOR THAT.
When some1 finally has done....you flame him for digging up old topics. What a bunch of hippocritic twats there are who roam these forums.

In the real war in Iraq:

Iraqis: OMFG Fuck you, you 203 noob!
Americans: Swear one more time you will be banned!
Iraqis: Zomg its the real war asshole!
KICKING!!! Iraqis FOR SAYING BANNED WORD "ASSHOLE"
Iraqis(7) Has been Kicked from the server.
Iraqis(7) Has been disconnected from the server.

you forget admin's gotta take a lot of shit.. kick him kick ban that bitch, and well if u kick for no reason at all and use spaming or language, then people shut up and play... not that i do that i just kick and tell people to fuck off some where else
