Since joining and having to adhere to the no swearing rule, I find myself swearing less when I'm at home and work ect ect . And some people say that no good can come from playing videogames? !lol
 
Oh, it's coming. One day you will just feel the sudden urge to go bomb everyone in the world. Just wait. :P
 
Actually, I was just saying the same thing to one of my friends here. And really, my language had gotten kind of bad lately, so hooray for video games!
 
Don't listen to Halo...he already had that urge BEFORE playing video games. :)
 
That's awesome, playing a shooter reduced your desire to swear. Might have had the same effect on me, if Rock Band parties weren't more than compensating. :p
 
Heh, I am in some ways glad to say that this place hasn't really changed my swearing/talking with other people in a friendly way habits. I have been working as a community manager (moderator/administrator) On a number of other forums for Several years. Doing that just teaches you good habits in general, because you are after all, setting an example for all of the members.
 
I have had the same effect I have found my self actually getting better at holding my cursing.
Its like it comes natural not to curse I hated how it was so easy.
Responsibility causes change I think.
I really Enjoy the clan alot also man its cool to play with you on 2fort The Shape!
 
Yeah, I can attest to fuse getting better. I almost banned him once for a bad attitude (sorry bud :-P), but he's really gotten a lot cooler since then.

I have also cut down on my IRL swearing. A lot. Now only one of 3 words is a swear, not one out of 2. :-D
 
i find that i swear less or i yell at my big daddy action figure... not sure if the second one is normal but whatever %-6

I know where you live... and I want that thing. >=D
 
That's one of the reasons that I like eGO so much, they have a pretty strict policy on this stuff. Makes it a better place to play IMO
 
Unfortunately, I haven't changed much since I joined eGO. Only my activity in TF2 increased.

hahahah yep thats when i first joined the clan

I was so used to EVERYONE swearing on the old game i used to play (gunz), it had a horrible community. When i found out swearing was not allowed in the clan, i stopped and never did it again
 
Different situation for me. I curse like a Sailor...Go figure, I am one. I make up for the deficit during the day while I'm at work during the night. I just treat playing here the same as when I'm with my grandparents, and so far no slipups. Better than I can say for around my grandparents :-P
