The swearing filter on DDO should be removed

Thank you, Airmax, for this enjoyable debate. This is the first debate I've done in a while and it's been fun.Voting should be done by anyone who reads this debate. Please. I want this debate to be fun. Vote for who was more persuasive, even if it wasn't me.I'd like to point out, once again, airmax doesn't even try to contest my point that he probably agrees with me. He admitted many times that the swearing filter is a wreck, and that he doesn't really care if people swear. He very probably agrees with me, but like I said, he's the moderator of this website. So while it's likely that he knows the swearing filter is rather silly, he is too decent of a guy to actually come out and say that.Why should we keep a swearing filter that even the admin of the website probably thinks is silly?My Arguments:My arguments have gone unrefuted. I mean really, airmax calls them red herrings, but judging by his profile picture, he's much more likely to be a red herring than my arguments.My argument is essentially this:1 - DDO is a wreck. The website is a wreck. The members don't have fun anymore.2 - The cause of this is DDO's unrealistic amount of rules.3 - To make DDO fun again, we *must* set a precedent to change the atmosphere of the website.4 - The best way to do this is to remove the oldest rule on the website: The swearing filter.I've shown that all of these points are true. 1 is true, even as airmax admits. 2 is true because rules always make things less fun, and as the rules on this website have increased, more and more members have said they are having less fun. It's really simple actually.Obviously, we need to reverse this so that DDO can be fun again. This is done by removing the oldest rule on the website: The swearing filter. This will bring DDO to a new age, where rules do not rule DDO, and debate does.I've also made the additional points:5 - People who swear are better with language. Removing the swearing filter is encouraging a better atmosphere for these people.6 - The swearing filter hurts free speech. We need free speech for debate, so the swearing filter has to go.Airmax still insists that these arguments are just stupid and silly. He keeps saying they don't have anything to do with the swearing filter.I'm puzzled.These arguments directly give good reasons why we should remove the swearing filter.Perhaps, since airmax is busy, it's easier to just dismiss my arguments as irellevant than to actually debate them.Airmax's ContentionsAirmax's four contentions have already been refuted. He just chooses to ignore this, and insists I haven't addressed them. Since I don't want to be a dick and bring up new contentions he can't answer, I will show that I did respond to his contentions.C1: The swearing filter doesn't prevent anything not worth preventingI already responded above. I showed that people who swear are generally better at using language, and that this argument is question begging. Airmax assumes swearing is bad and shouldn't be allowed to prove swearing is bad and shouldn't be allowed. I said this already.C2: Should be a low priorityMy positive argument shows this is not true, since the swearing filter must be removed to set a precedent.C3: It doesn't even prevent what it's supposed toI already stated above that this is another reason why it should be removed. It's ridiculous, and even airmax probably thinks it would be better if removed.C4: Removing the filter supports inappropriate behaviorThis is really the same as C2, and I will repeat what I said in my opening round. Removing the filter supports a better atmosphere for debate by promoting freedom of speech, which is necessary for debate. It also creates a better atmosphere for people who swear, who I have shown, are scientifically proven to be better at using language.I also stated: "Swearing isn't immature or any of that. The inability to control yourself is immature. But if you want to swear, go right ahead." Like I said, it's not swearing that's inappropriate. It's being a jerk that's inappropriate. You can swear without being a jerk and attacking people. Swearing should be allowed in the case of argument. Not personal attacks.Please note...I am not responding to these contentions just now all of a sudden. I already stated these arguments above throughout my case. My case is my rebuttal to his contentions.Since airmax hasn't refuted my case, he has not shown my response to his arguments are wrong.4chanDDO will never be like 4chan, don't worry. I never once said personal attacks should be allowed on the website. Swearing is not necessarily a personal attack, unless you're overly sensitive and get triggered easily.The swearing filter is still absurd...Apparently the word "a*s" is now equally as bad as the word "nigger." Really, if something is broke, either fix it, or throw it out. That's what my dad does when he cleans his garage. Usually he tends to throw things out, sometimes even only half broken things. Especially when they promote to the atmosphere which is hurting the garage, aka being messy.DDO is messy with rules. It needs to be cleaned up.Also, the swearing filter doesn't "encourage" you to be more throughtful. It forcibly disallows you to use certain words.It's like when I went to jury duty, which is mandatory, and then they all said "Oh thank you so much for your time today!" If you're forced to give something to someone, it's not a gift. If you're forced to not swear, not swearing isn't a thoughtful thing. This is really communist thinking. You're forced to love the dear leader, and then they thank you for your support. Well, you're welcome. Otherwise I would have gotten shot.What DDO should be...DDO should be a place for fun and formal debates. It should promote free speech. Currently, it does not. Currently, the rules are many, and a great number of members are not satisfied with the website, because the website itself is not as fun as it used to be.We should have many debates that anyone can read, and enjoy, and vote on. We should promote the atmosphere we need on DDO. Ultimately, this will be a very good idea financially. When people like to spend time on a website, money is made.ConclusionMy argument still stands. My argument is my response to airmax's contentions. So, I have shown that the swearing filter on DDO should be removed. I have given good reasons why this is a high priority to do so, and airmax has just ignored them. I'm disappointed. I wanted to actually debate these points, not just repeat them.Long live DDO. Vote Pro.Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed the debate, and had fun. Also, thank you to airmax! I hope he had fun as well.
