The bottom line is that we want the Neverwitcher Project to be a fun and safe environment for all players. While The Witcher world has dark themes (including, but not restricted to: racism, national hatred, sexual themes, substance abuse, religious hate, haressment and defamation as well as obscene/vulgar/crass language) these should be limited to in-game situations only. While certain language and images may not be offensive to you, consider the fact that that same language and images may have a completely different effect on someone else. We put our trust in your understanding and reasonable mind to make our project the best it can be.
