sensitivity about the so called swear words is funny - not only in disco - but in many internet communities.
you can show and describe dismemberment, cruel murder, gruesome torture. you can describe pornographic content, abuse and crime. - but you cannot swear.
in stead of swearing you use colourful words that EVERYONE knows what they mean. - in disco its sometimes even stranger...
i can get sanctioned when i use f*ck ingame (with the asterix).... but i can say frell you. - and both mean the same thing. that is double standards. - all those substitutes are stupid anyway.
the problem is more that players do not clearly roleplay. insults are often borderline meant to hurt not only the character but also the player.
at the same time i can troll someone, treat him in an utterly condescending manner, describe what he writes as the result of someone with mental illness and generally bully - and get away with it.... provided i pick the right target and have a crowd of minions that egg me on.
trolling is MUCH more serious than dropping the occasional swear word in roleplay context. of course it is also harder to track - especially when it is trolling that happens over an extended period of time on a lower level of hostily - where one single post is not harmful but a series of them is like attrition damage.
