The F-word has many meanings. When people use it in chat they rarely use it to say anything related to sexual intercourse. Most of the time it's just used for something else, like expressing anger(Get out vs. GTFO, Shut up vs. STFU etc.)
And sometimes people can be nice with it.(You're the F'ing best! )
^What I consider okay.(Language wise, not flame wise.)
v What I consider not okay.(Clear sexual meaning.)
I bet you [F-F-F-F-BOMB!!!] your mom every night.

The problem is that the line between what's appropriate language and what's inappropriate language in chat is too blurred. I mean, the guy over here says 'lets curse all we want' and the other guy over here says 'yeah, but don't overdo it' while the person over there is all like 'dude I'm mormon I don't wanna hear that stuff' while the person next to him is like 'I'm only cool with minor curses...'
I say let 'em say just about(about(I wont elaborate on this, yet.)) everything, but don't let 'em use the F word in a sexual way, or overuse it.
(We're talking language here not flaming. That's different.)
Then you got the staff. They're just like the people over there and over here. Staff member over here decides to delete all posts containing the F word while the staff guy over there is more tolerant to language and it's just all messed up.
Listo should have been more specific when he let us cuss on chat. :/
And maybe a bit more considerate. But hey, that's not my call.
