yes, they had rules that worked for decades until the PC movement entered the picture and everyones skin became paper thin.From official tournaments. Official tournaments always have rules, beyond basic rules of the game.
even from your perspective, why should a word be banned? dont you understand that if one bans a word then there cannot be any dialogue between two people about it? if the left really wanted to end racism and all of the other -isms that they think up, why should we ban words when we could simply disarm the power associated with them? words inherently have no power. people give them power by labeling them "bad" or "offensive". banning them makes them even more powerful. allowing them to be said disarms them completely.
children grasp this concept-- put an object on the table and tell a 6 year old that the object is not important. put a different object in drawer and tell him or her that its very dangerous and powerful. then see what the child reaches for.
thanks for telling me what i can do in my own house... for now...If you want to use cum and shemale in your home games, no one is going to stop you.
i disagree. every instance of censorship and infringement upon the first amendment hurts EVERYONE. it needs to be called out loud and clear. for the right and left. we are in danger of losing our right to freedom of speech-- when that disappears under whatever premise ( PC culture, jess` fascist/trump censorship of anarchist/anti-fascist FB/social media groups, disagreeing with the official CDC/WHO BS-19 narrative, etc.) we are completely finished.There's a lot of things to be concerned about, especially as far as censorship goes... The Scrabble thing is entirely a non-issue though.
