I don't understand why in anyone's right mind, thinks that cursing, aka swearing, excessively is a part of playing Counter Strike?

I cannot tell you how many times I join the 174.5 24/7 Assault server, and as soon as I join someone screams "godamn you f***ing foot sniper!!" over the mic.

So I type in plain chat for them to watch their mouth, and what do they do? Scream at me instead.

"Dude STFU. Unless you're admin, then you can STFU too."

Wow... "ma_say oh really? I'm 1 button away from muting you, calm down."

"Make me."

"ma_say ok... you asked for it"


That's one scenario.

The other is I'm on CT and scouting garage on Assault, and some guy gets foot sniped, and he starts cussing up a storm. So I tell him to watch his mouth, and he's like, "oh is this a no swearing server?"

"Yeah, try and watch your mouth please."

And few rounds later they're cussing again. Usually when they get hit by foot snipers or whatever.

What I don't understand is, why go through the trouble of hitting the mic button to activate it, THEN proceed to cuss over the mic? Why not just cuss in your own vicinity without hitting the mic button? It is that simple.

That, or the people that actually sit there and type it out. Since we have a word filter, you can tell their have to sit there and find a way to make it show up, like sh!t, or fu(k, or whatever. And it's like, "dude, you just wasted like 10 seconds to find a way to type it out. In that time, you coulda said that phrase like 6 times and nobody else would have had to read it or whatever."

Why do people go through such lengths to cuss on the mic, or over chat? Is it really that important that people see what you have to say cause your n00b ass just fell off of the roof and died?

Just laugh it off man, it's a game.
