Profanity in GTA 5


Recommended Posts

I just don't get how this game manages to use every swear word there is, AND the game is rated 17+, but we are not allowed to send texts containing profanity or put profanity in anything on the Social Club? I mean, what's up with that? Seems kind of hypocritical to me...

The social club is utilized by both LIVE and the Playstation Network. If the social club allowed profanity it would violate several policies put in place by Sony and Microsoft regarding online conduct, which would end up becoming an issue for Rockstar Games. So, they don't allow it.

 

At least that is my understanding of it. I think it's kind of dumb as well, but it's one of those situations where what is deemed acceptable is dependent on who is watching.

It's politics man...

its totally unrealistic at least in Scotland. profanitys are part of our everyday language regardless of age, gender or possibly even species :lol:

 

Because most in that country aren't bright enough to use intelligent words, so they use profanity. hehheheehehheeh

What I find really f*cked up is if you try to upload a picture you took in Grapeseed without editing the default "Grapeseed" out the title it gets flagged because it contains "rape". -_- You will get the cloud error until you edit the title.

 

Also "Grand" used to be blocked in the meme text editor too.

bright enough to invent half of what people use every day though. tyres, television, telephone, penicillin etc etc etc etc. crazy enough for the romans to say 'bugger that, build a wall to keep them away from us'
