It should remain banned. We don't need any more edgy people.

The site is open to the entire world, no doubt. And I get that it isn't a big deal at all in places like Australia. But ultimately this is an American site, based in the US. And in the USA, the C-word is the worst word.

It's not about being edgy. the c word is practically a term of endearment outside of the States. Australians and Scots seem to throw it about a lot.

GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC

This board is inhabited by mostly Americans and Canadians where the "C" word is still offensive.

Yeah, I know. But the people who want to use the word are typically not Americans. Like TC. I was explaining their position in relation to your post. They aren't trying to be edgy.

Ok.

What use does it have? The "c" word can just be replaced by "mate", and if you want to call somebody the "C" word with some evil intent you can just call him a prick..idk. Vagina if we want to use the "c" word for literal intent.

Some people like to type the same way they speak, and that word is in their vocabulary. So they don't want to have to always change it on here.

It's an American based website with an overwhelming American userbase. And people here treat it like it's the worst thing you could call someone or something.

I don't see why dick is allowed as an insult but the c word isn't. I know I'm not easily offended or anything but if it bothers someone just keep the profanity filter on
