Reporting and other silliness.

What is it with people lately and reporting "hurtful language"
If it isn't harassment, or personal threats why are people hyper sensitive about people cursing?
Isn't the majority of the player base age 30+? Why does it seem like I am no longer able to swear anywhere or my account is infracted?
I mean honestly if it's rated "T" I highly doubt people would expect it to have "G" rated language.
The hyper-active reporting makes everyone seem like such a wimpy narc.
Notice I can't even swear here to exert emphasis on that last sentence.
So in general, and in game, WHY ARE PEOPLE SO SENSITIVE ABOUT EVERYTHING?!

If you're offended, keep your petty grievances to yourself for god's sake, because no one cares if someone uses common vulgarity, or ANYTHING really, and you could always ignore them if you so desired.
My philosophy is that free speech is free speech, so yes people should be allowed to vocalize whatever they deem necessary, and this over-dramatized reporting is making me SICK.
Now I get it, maturity = less vulgarity, but everyone has anger, and this anger leads to name-calling, if I do insult someone through anger I shouldn't have to live in constant fear of getting banned for "huwting their feewings"

No name calling was done here, so do not infract, this post does not support immaturity, but this post does support free speech.
