Plot

There seems to be alot of attempts to trim the plot after a tag was place. It should be noted however that its large when compared to he rest of the article. Against other game wiki pages its small... thus we should actually expand the rest of the article; development and characters being the short ones at the moment.

Recognition

As well as a Guinness Book of World Records entry, there are also rumours that the game has been nominated for a writers award. This has been added but does need to be sourced and detailed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.80.240.66 (talk) 08:27, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

the "F-Word"

Do you seriously have to call it that, can't you just write Fuck?

I mean, anyone who doesn't understand the phrase the "F-word" is going to look it up, and it's quite convenient as the link to the article on the word fuck is right there.

The F-Word seems to be one of the most conceited ways of saying Fuck in the english language. The point of language is to express ideas, if some of those ideas are offensive, like the ideas expressed by fuck, then people use the phrase F-word which expresses that they mean the word Fuck, so essentially they are not avoiding using the word fuck, they are using a phrase which means the same thing so that they can later say "oh, but I didn't say fuck, I said the 'f-word'"
