Why can't you just take the swearing part out and everyone can play? I just really like this game and I don't want my mom to look at it and say I can't play because a few people want to use language all the time...I have fun and I don't want to quit just yet.
Personally, I [Expletive Deleted] don't [Expletive Deleted] give a [Expletive Deleted] about [Expletive Deleted] no [Expletive Deleted] [Expletive Deleted] [Expletive Deleted] swearing.



Seriously. Potty-mouth can be checked at the load screen. It isn't needed in-game.

HOWEVER, I'd like to be able to have a conversation in the game, with an ADULT, about the freakin' game WITHOUT having to find some way of circumventing the capricious, and highly uneven chat filters. Literally, there are times I can NOT say something, five minutes later I can, five minutes after that, I can't again.

And this is in private chat to another adult player.

Seriously. Woodruff's Tortugan Freebooters!

Literally, you can't express levels in the game. Or how many points you have left to a level.

You can't say "cell" even though you've got jails.

Heck, you can't even help people having problems with their computer sometimes! One of my guild officers was having lockups all the time on her system. Turned out to be a Vista machine with only 512MB of RAM on it.



Couldn't ask her to reboot. Couldn't say "Windows".

And, as has been noted before. This lovely chat filter prevents guilds from telling each other about their guild website/forums. In order to get my officer the URL for ours, I had to go through fairly amazing contortions, since after a while you couldn't say DOT.

Anyhoo, she's fixed now, recommended a 2GB RAM upgrade and that cleaned her problems up (Vista+Insufficient RAM+Memory Leaks Out The Ying Yang=bad Pirates Experience) and she claims that her machine is like a different beast now.



I'm not saying that Disney needs to drop and spread for the pervs or anything to improve the game. Just recognize that there are a significant number of adult players and conversations more sophisticated than "Gonna smoosh a skeleton" are going to happen.
