The 3-Strikes Policy - Is it really a good thing?

Or at the very least, clarification on what they consider "profanity" in a game that's rated "teen" with "language" listed as one of the items that makes it so. Because it's obvious some is acceptable. And heck, what my grandmother's generation considered profane and what my generation consider profane don't match up.

But it's not only your generation that plays the game, is it? The rules need to encompass everyone, young and old, with or without mental health issues. You can attempt that if you like with detailed rules and let me know when (a) you give up, or (b) you spend all your time revising and revising the rules because you didn't include everyone.

And of course everything is context. If an NPC calls me a Hyuran whatever, I am in my character's head at the point. It may sting a little but not as much as a player in my group calling me names because I failed an easy mechanic. As I said in my earlier post, treat people with dignity and kindness. There are different cultures and people being shocked that other cultures consider things offensive means they need to adapt to more relaxed and kind way of thinking and acting and consider what they are doing. That's the reason the rules are so broad, to cover everyone.
