Just out of intrest, does Ambrosia ever not post a plugin, and if so for what reasons?

I think Ambrosia posts just about everything that comes to them as long as it decompresses properly, has an adequate description/read me, and doesn't violate any applicable laws.

I checked it out, great thread, but what about cussing. I'm not new to EV (although I am to the webboards) and I've downloaded alot of plugins for both EV and EVO and havn't seen one that has f*** or s$$$ in it even once.
Maybe I'm just a pessimist but that does not seem right at all.

Or maybe people think they can make something fun without having to resort to ****ing everything up by putting ****ty swearwords in everything.

IMO, the reason that plug-ins generally don't contain swearing is that it wouldn't fit the atmosphere of the game. Both EV and EVO are fairly cheerful, friendly universes - I think someone swearing a blue streak just wouldn't seem right. Such actions might fit in to Martin Turner's darker E3 universe (the one for FF and FH), but all of his major characters tend to be fairly good people - the villains and despicable types mostly just appear in the background. Perhaps EVN...?
Either way, I don't feel that a plug-in, story, or novel really needs foul language to make it worth reading.
