The Freelancer is E for everyone, that doesn't mean that DiscoveryGC should.

I love how people seem to forget that some these insults (given an actual RP situation) are not what the person behind one screen wants to say to the other person behind the other screen, but merely how his/her character would act in a situation like that.

It's because it's ever apparent that those who wish to RP using those words are the types that'd wish they had the cojones to act like that in real life but knowing full well they'd get served a tasty knuckle sandwich if they did. So they use the safe distance and the anonymity of the internet as their outlet instead. A pitiful display, really.

Are you actually for real? I'd never go up to people inRL and just start smacking them, not because I couldn't, but because I have zero reason to. Disco is a roleplay environment, we choose to create characters who act different than ourselves. That's what makes it fun. I couldn't be a badass member of a space-navy in real life now, could I ?

It's the very reason why we play video games, not to get a boner about how I'm free to insult people in a game, but to get away from everyday-life.
