ANYONE! delete that comment! Allowing swearing very may tempt people to use possibly offensive words to get their way or to insult another user. Of course we won't allow users to insult one another, but allowing swearing is just one step in that direction. Besides, why do we even need to allow swearing? I don't know, some people swear censored... then I guess they would swear better uncensored, plus, some people WANT to swear uncensored. Also the reasons listed above. But why do we need to type the swearing? Sure, I swear sometimes when I get angry, just like most people do. But I just don't see the point of actually typing the word, and just saying it without letting others know. There are 1,025,109 words in the english language, can't we just use those to express our opinions? I don't know. If the majority votes in favor, then so be it, but I just don't really see the point.

Swear words aren't always directly insult words. In fact, most of the words we class as profanity are names of Organs, Animals, Substances and Actions. They become "Insult words" when people use them to agitate others. This proposal aims to open their reasonable usage; mostly with their real meaning. For example, technically people should be able to construct sentences like "[Word] is quite salty actually" or "People only have six holes in their body? How come?!! There are seven if you count [word] and [word]" Also, another aim of this campaign is to reduce the usage of swear words and ease the job of Chat Moderators. Just like drugs, when opressed, people challenge the rules and seek other ways to use those words any way with asterixes, @s, $s etc. If they are free, they'll lose their seductive nature. Thus chat moderators won't be forced getting into a moral evaluation process anytime a person uses a potential weak mean word; they'll analise the concept instead, if someone is agitated; KICK!, if not; FINE!
