    This wasn't implying that I , or anyone else who has managed to not swear in game, are BETTER than anyone. We're all just people and I accept that means we're very different. I'm not some emotionless lump or implying I am a master of self control. I'm trying to point out though that implying the rules are at fault for someone doing what they're trying to prevent is kinda a backwards way to look at it. The rules assume people have basic self control and can operate in a "family" environment. This is literally what is agreed to by hitting the "play" button.

    are you talking actual "frick" or the ..actual word we all think when we say frick?
    I'm not poking fun at anyone. I'm hoping they can look at what's going on and go "oh.. the problem isn't I'm getting CAUGHT swearing, maybe I could.. not swear where they don't want me to.".

    at the few places I've worked/am working, no one really batted an eye when someone lets out a little swear out of frustration, unless it's aimed at someone since we're all adults and know that some things are just so frustrating that you need to vent your displeasure immediately
    OK so you personally likely have a handle on your own frustration and control yourself based on situation, surroundings and appropriateness. Again you, like I , understand that frustration is not an excuse correct? So a suggestion that maybe not swearing where you're not supposed to be swearing isn't some jab and might be a reminder that whether or not you want to or are used to swearing all the time, you have to consider where you're are at the time.
