Back in the days, even with that rule, people would swear and still not be punished. The thing here is, people abuse it and swear just for christ's sake, i am not saying it should be banned, i am just saying it should be controlled and the rule should be more strict, you are completely missing the point here, i don't find any amusement when younger people swear, it kind of just disgusts me in some way, just my opinion tho...
If the jailbreak players controlled themselves to the point that the chat would please everyone that'd be great, but we are not seeing that, we just see random swear words and insults in order to say something, to keep the chat filled actually.
Like the replica said, it might be the "old regime" talking here as i am used to it, and it worked fine. Until this day i still have no idea why it was removed, maybe to bring new players, maybe to stop with pointless and endless reports, i don't know, and we don't decide the fate of it, lets just wait for high staff's decision
