User blog:John Breasly/Rule Request: Cursing in stories (Passed)

I'm expecting a no, but it's worth a shot.

I'd like to be able to use "swear words" when I write, as some of the best stories in humanity have cursing in them. I, and all of my friends, feel that in wiriting, cursing is appropriate.

Now, here's what I propose. We can use "damned," "hell," and "bastard," in our stories. Nothing more, with or without admin permission (unless it's a unanimous, obviously.)
 * Damned - Damned originated as way to say "cursed," and it is actually appropriate to use in stories.
 * Hell - Hell isn't that bad, it's a name.
 * Bastard - A bastard is someone who was born when their parents were not married. Used today as an insult, I think it's appropriate when used occasionally, and pertaining to the story.

Now, in a recap, I think we should be able to use the words above, OCCASIONALLY, not in an overloading manner. They are still outlawed in comments, but in FAN STORIES (i.e. Murder on Everglade Alley) they can be allowed.
