Its an MMORPG. People are going to call other people noobs.
It has a chat system, people are going to swear.
The censor should be removed for most swear words. Racist words, fine, censor them.
Im going to make an analogy for this.
Imagine a crowd of people moving along a roadway. This great crowd of people want to move out in different directions to the road is going, these different directions being them breaking the rules. There are two possible solutions to this problem.
Either, put great fires on either side of the road, and so all those who wander out will quickly be burnt to a crisp. Or, you can put shepherds on either side of the road, so that anyone found wandering off the path can be gently moved back onto the path.
Everyone wanders off the path at some time, risking the flames. Some dont get burnt by the flames, some do. No-one deserves the flames, really. They should be put back on the path.
With the chat censor, jagex have put some walls next to the path to try and stop people from breaking rule 1. But these are bad walls. They are walls that narrow the path and annoy the sh*t out of people, and people want to break out of them.
The solution?
Get rid of the flames. Add the shepherds. Dont ban anyone.
For those who insist on macroing and scamming and stuff, take them off the path, and put them on their own path. Permanently mute them. Stop them from trading. Even remove their names from the hiscores. But never ban. Stopping them from trading, removing them from the hiscores etc basically makes macroing completely pointless.

Translation1: Allow theives to get away with stealing from your house and not send them to jail because it will hurt their feelings.
Translation2: Allow serial killers to kill people and not face a serious penalty because we don't want to lose another life....
Translation3: A 30 year old would be allowed to swear in front of a 12 year old just because he/she is older??
Well, I say NO WAY to them all
