*Sigh*

The word itself is not offensive for older audiences. But when a 9 year old comes on the message boards and see it, how do think that makes him/her feel? The context that is is used in is also inappropriate. Keep these trinkets to yourself, do not publish it on the message boards please.

Thats just my opinion.

Thanks

what about a 9 year old girl who's never heard the term before?
what about your little sister, if you had one, would you want her coming here and seeing that?

maybe it offends the ladies here, ever think of that?

I don't like the signature either, but why would it offend a girl? I could say ***** all I wanted in class or in the halls and no one would care.

The reason is because usually, that word implies doing something bad. (I think I don't have to list it here, you're intelligent enough to figure it out.)

I think it is totally unessecary (sp?) to refer to a male reproductive organ, posting on a forum about a video game.

I think you are *****ic and childish to stoop so low to get attention.

how is sex or masturbation bad? that is an opinion, and does not justify for a banning, because it is just that, an opinion.

Post a poll and see if people are offended, I have no problem with the word "*****", but it should be removed if people do not like seeing the world displayed on the forum for all to see. I respect your opinion about liking *****, heh, but you should consider other people before posting your opinion to the public.

You have to be 13 to be able to play graal now, if you people would read before you sign up for a account, you would see there is a choice. I dont know about p2p though... but I am guessing you have to be 13 to play also.

The problem with his signature is that no one on the board wants to hear about a 13-year-old boy's fondness of the primary male sexual organ. I'm closing the topic.
