Foul Language and KR was created by Sir Renaudierre
I noticed this weekend that the amount of cursing at KR has reached epic proportions. I can honestly say I can't recall an event where I heard F--k said so many times and so loudly. This really is not acceptable. Staff and the RMs aren't here to be the language police, but we really need the players to tone it down a notch or two.
What I mean by this is that screaming out curse words or loudly using curse words every other word simply won't do. We really don't want to have to start giving out RVs for foul language but we can and will if the blatant stuff doesn't stop. I'm not saying we are going to give out a RV for every minor use of a cure word, I'm only talking about the really blatant stuff.
I'll be the first to admit I curse. But I really try to limit myself from blatantly doing so. Its important to remember that KR is designed to be young person friendly and we do allow kids to come when they are with their parent/guardian.
So please try and keep the foul language down. I can't be more serious when I say I really don't want us to have start giving out RVs over it.

Even beyond that hearing someone scream the F'Bom always at least for me seems overly anachronistic and take my mindset out of character. From an atmosphere perspective, screaming out modern curses really brings down the RP.

Is it still permissible to curse for RP reasons, if the situation merits such?

Got any more like this that we could use IG?
Thanks.

...and, along these lines, can members suggest IG curses? In "Wheel of Time," a fantasy book set back in about the same time as KR, they sometimes say "Blood and Ashes!" when the situation merits.Is it still permissible to curse for RP reasons, if the situation merits such?

My personal favorite is from Raymond E. Feist's Magician: Apprentice "Gods and Fishes!"
Though people did curse back in the day, there is the PG-13 rating to consider. I will attempt to keep my language more flavorful with out the big bombs.
"May Malyc take you!"
"I only wish that Galadell is pre-occupied when your spirit leaves it's mortal shell."
"Gnome it all!"
"Great Hades' Horn!"
"By the foul breath of Uelrog"
"As foul as King Mardux's bed!"
