[Discuss] Vulgarity Option

I have just been disciplined for being "unbefitting of a noble".  "Crap" 
is about the worst word I use... I can't believe people thought that was 
vulgar. I have heard much, much worse in the game (including, in this 
same realm, a knight that eats his enemies).

As long as it isn't over the top, I'm sure nobles swore in some form 
during an argument.  Adding a bit of flare and passion into arguments is 
half the fun. It really puts a dampener on the fun of the game when even 
the softest of insults gets punished.

Etiquette Issue   (3 hours, 22 minutes ago)
One of your recent messages, reproduced below, has caused many raised 
eyebrows among your peers and fellow nobles agree that this way of 
talking is unbefitting of a noble. Your respect among the nobility 
falls, resulting in a loss of a point of honour.

The Message:
That's crap! We received no orders whatsoever last turn. Are we expected 
to wait indefinitely for you to roll out of bed and privilege us with 
direction?

Prime Minister Magni is a driving force and strength behind this realm. 
I imagine he waited sufficient time after turnchange for orders to be 
sent by you, wondering if you were going to show up or not this turn he 
decided to cover your butt and send direction to the troops. You should 
be thanking him not deriding him!!
