    It reminds me of Al Pacino's speech in Devil's Advocate.

    If they were saying “help us build a fuck palace” then you’d probably have a point.

    Emphasis is on language not the theme.

    Nah, it’s just a ploy to bring down character price.

    You're still missing the point. As a writer/actor it's your job to incite emotions in your audience. There are times where the word "fuck" is better suited for the context simply because it flows better than another word. Personally I would never use "fuck palace" because it interrupts the objective of captivating your audiences emotions.

    For example.

    Some unexpected event suddenly happens, what is a better fitting reaction from a person? "What the fuck!" or "What the heck!"

    When you place a God in your game who's followers revel in perverted carnal pleasure and lets be honest Ivas has a pretty solid group of followers (most of whom are women), they are probably partaking in some pretty fucked up shit.

    To me, what is better for the game is your character reacting to that fucked up shit rather than going ooc and calling down the almighty smiter.

    I don't think Stephen King relives his fucked up shit in real life.

    P.S. One of my most memorable moments in Gemstone was having a GM whisper to me that they can hardly type because I have them so emotionally shaken up.

    Your point doesn't matter. The rules are the rules.

    That depends on if saying the word "fuck" would be violating any rules.

    The point you're missing is it's the words themselves that would be the issue, not their meaning, i.e. fuck palace vs. brothel, textfuck room vs. latched room, doctor yelling, "Work your fucktube and pop that little piece of shit out of your cunt!" vs. "Ok now push!" 3rd grader in a classroom asking, "May I use the bathroom?" vs. "I need to take a fucking shit god damn!!!! " etc.

    More than anything my point is, you have already crossed over into the realm of mature content by adding sex dungeons, whore houses and gods that encourage perversion.

    Screw rules!



    You've been warned 69 times on the character Wyromsux. You have been flagged as a high maintenance customer. You're being monitored for vulgarity. You haven't read the policy in full and Wyrom hates you.
