<div style="width: 500px; text-align: center" align="center">To be promoted through the ranks of eGO, you need to demonstrate that you have the maturity and common sense to admin a server using the guidelines we teach in admin school.

Using common sense, you can determine if a player's use of language and certain unacceptable words requires action from an admin. With this in mind, the official list of unacceptable words has been removed from eGO policies and will no longer be a part of admin training.

From now on, use this simple question as your guide: "Would I use that language in front of a child, my priest, or my grandmother?"

Everyone is guilty of an occasional slip of the tongue in a moment of frustration. We should let those initial slips go by with a warning. Of course, continue to warn/kick/ban as needed if it continues. No one is immune to this rule. Admins, e's and pubs are to be treated the same regarding use of language and respect for other players.

As one of our wise Division Leaders once said, "Relax, play the game, and don't look for situations to admin. Just handle what happens."</div>​

I'm glad this was posted. I'm sorry to say that there are times when an eG plays the role of admin and I completely disagree with their actions. I'm 41 and easily recognize when someone is mature enough to handle a situation. Some of our members say things to other players simply because they can, not because they should.
 
What if your grandmother is a priest AND a child?

Ok, bad point.

Yeah, that's a great way to filter what you say. And guys, it's not just swearing, it's contextual too.

Saying #@$%@# is just as bad as "You stupid idiot, you don't know how to play the game, you are so retarded."

Think before you say.
 
Great refinement of policy. Nice job Artimus and council.
 
I Know this is a good call my all of our leaders. I will enforce it. i also like the removing of the list of bad words.
Good Job
