yeah it does. He is right they are wrong. This is a right and a wrong way. Foul language and fighting is the wrong way. people have kids and family members walking by, completely inappropriate to use gutter speak in Vent. fighting is not enjoyable, and ruins the game for the rest of the peeps. people rubbing you the wrong way is not his complaint. your comments our out of context. Foul language and people being abusive to each other is his compliant and he is right, thats wrong. Quite the guild. Allot of the top end guilds are just jerks and loud mouths, realize that before you join. There are good guilds that do blow though the content, but are very friendly and provide a fun atmosphere. Look for one of them.
If people have kids and family members within earshot of language that they deem offensive, then those people need to make sure their kids and family can't hear the language, either by removing those people, turning off vent, getting headphones, or any of the hundreds of other solutions. If
you choose to consume "offensive" content, then
you need to take the responsibility to make sure those that might be offended aren't. Asking the content to change based upon your living situation is silly. Do you blame pornographers if you choose to watch pornography around your kids? Do you blame movie makers if you choose to watch a particularly violent movie around your kids? Do you blame Fear Factor if you turn it on during dinner and puke because you see someone eating a rotten horse? Actually, you probably do, we live in a society of victims. In case nobody told you, the internet and internet-based games are not kindergarten, nor are they Mayberry. Further, in case nobody told you, not everybody on the face of the earth holds the same values as you do, and one person's offensive content is another person's normal way of speaking. Obviously that guild isn't for this guy, just like Fear Factor isn't for me. Because I don't walk through life expecting it to change to suit my whims,
I don't watch Fear Factor.
