The answer is yes. Of course.
TV? This is internet only right? I mean, it was made for porn, I think we can handle a little swear-word
True, but swearing on TV is perfectly accepted in Sweden.
i think its accepted everywhere except america^^
Dunno if it's accepted in Switzerland. Would love to hear a swiss sports commentator go like "Verdammti Scheisse" oder "Huäräsohn". lol.
For one there are different level of cursing and in addition none would care if something really bad happens (like a lamp falls down very close to the commentator and he says shit/fuck).

Technically the english stream has no censors.
rofl american bandwagon omg omg he said fuck on tv. As if any other country or person cares about this.
Come on, there must be German swear words that aren't appropriate for tv. Try and have some respect for other cultures.
Actually there is not (ppl just dont say german cursewords that often on tv, when they do its not censored). Some talkshows in the 90s put in the "beep" sound, but only to look like american talkshows... But you are right its like the german censoring of too violent contents in videogames (green blood etc...), gotta respect other cultures.
Anyway... thanks Idra and Jinro, you made awesome games today. All the time I sitting at my desk ripping apart random papersheets I found cause the tension was killing me.
Thats the kind of games we wanna see. Awesome skill, long back and forth games. I hope you both advance at least in ro8.

Won't be a problem once the EG house gets set up. Those guys are every bit as good as the Koreans
LOL. No. They really aren't.
It's just mindblowing. Makes me wonder how much EG has to fail (as a team, so not only clinging to Idra's individual success) for people to get off hyping their roster which is sub-par even by American standards. =/
Unless they buy a whole new roster, the house in Korea won't do much good.

Well i don't think any "official" commentator would say this during the news for example, but you can see it during debate shows, documentaries or stuff like that

Canada too. Not that I have anything against swearing, but it does complicate things if I try to get people like my 10 year old cousin into eSports.
Why? How is it a big deal if a 10 year old hears the word fuck?
Because it's less socially acceptable to swear publicly in the US and Canada. You can argue about the etymology and significance all you want, but it's simply a different culture. Changing the way someone thinks on a website is not the same as changing society at large.

proof for germans/austrians, right here:
Oh and Idra rocks, I love this guy
edit: LMAO already been posted
this is something completely different, he wasn't aware that the camera was on. i think Jinro and Idra knew that the camera was on...
and about the 10 year old child, which child doesn't hear "fuck" from other children or adults? that's ridicolous pretending they will learn it from the TV or internet streams

It happens everytime and then we get the 20 pages of "Well its ok/not ok to swear here so why isnt it ok/not ok everywhere"
Today also means that Jinro + Idra will definately be back next month in Code S which is just awesome.

ahhh you shouldn't have spoiled yourself. The games were EPIC! Hell I'd recommend you re-watch them regardless. Some of the best TvZ by Idra and TvT by Jinro.
