Swear words appear on heaps of films at around the 12 certificate in the cinema... Shit, even in Indiana Jones (which is a PG) the word bastard is used. Get over it n00b-eats, unless you know toddlers who are reading this forum it shouldn't be a big deal.

The implication of a swear word can be abusive or offend someone, doesn't matter what context its used in. Some people are offended by the use of swear words in general and find that an 'abuse' of their use of forums.

I'm not one of them by the way

Relax. This really doesn't need to turn into a massive debate.
