Thank you. So much.
I always hang out in Flourite, and all the time in General I see everyone swearing and speaking inappropriately. They seem like they're all over 13, and yet they have the immaturity of a 7-year-old (in terms of not doing what they're told and being apathetic about how young people can be on the game). It even seems like they only swear and chat about mature things because they want to proclaim that they're older than most on the game. Which annoys me to no end. In one roleplay I was in, there were young members on and a lot of the RPers were talking about things that are in no way good for a child to hear. Some others, including me, tried to say that it wasn't right, and they obliged for about a day, then went right back to announcing the same dirty phrases and... well, let's just say I think it would have scarred the minds of those young ones on the RP. I feel genuinely sorry for them.
People need to learn respect for the mods. And since warnings and bans won't goad them to do that, I completely concur with this decision to shut down the game for a week.
And if you think you're not one of the people who do this, first of all, think back to everything you've posted- I'll bet you can find one thing that is inappropriate. Everything you send out in chat should have been typed out with the younger generation in mind. Secondly, if you haven't found anything you've typed that's inappropriate, take your anger out on those responsible for the shut-down and not the mods. This is a serious issue; parents are getting involved, and they had to stop it before it got out of hand.
I hope a lot of FH users will learn a lesson from this. If you don't have respect for your superiors and the younger crowd, you suffer the consequences. Enough said.
