....You are 14. Wow.
Damn is a bad word according to Mormons parents. But it is really just your judgement to decide for yourself is it, or is it not a quote un quote, bad word.

I would consider it a negative word, but not an outright "bad" word. (ANY choice of words can be used maliciously or in a bad way.) In my opinion the word "damn" definitely shouldn't be banned from Vizzed chat or forum, or from anywhere really. It can be used purely for emphasis. It's one of those words like "hell" and "crap" that definitely has negative connotations... but you have to admit it isn't as offensive, vitriolic or politically incorrect as other cuss words can be.

I wouldn't say so. Well, I think of words in kind of a tier scale. Lowest tier are, you know, most normal words. Then one up from that is "Darn" or "Crud". Than one up from that is "Damn" and "Crap" and "Hell". And above that is the really bad words that get bleeped out.

supercool22 : That's a great way for improving that word! Sounds a lot more friendlier!

In my personal opinion, the word damn isn't that bad!
It all depends on the context you use it in.

It is definitely one of those grey areas.  You could use it badly especially in some religious terms.

It is not an inherently bad word, but it could be put to bad uses.  Same with a good book.  You could use the book to gain knowledge to serve your fellow man, or you could thwack your fellow man over the head with it!

sonic23 : I wouldn't call that a really bad word.. But if you are not entirely sure, don't use that word on Vizzed at all according to the rules. Don't use any bad word that you think or don't think that's bad.

Depends on usage. "Damn, I stubbed my toe," is a sentence in which it is a bad word. "You're going to damn yourself if you keep on this path," is an example of it not being a bad word. Typically anything involving being damned or the like is acceptable usage without being a cuss word

Philosphically speaking, words being bad are only bad because someone taught you they were bad, it's subjective. If you say "damn" or the "F word" to someone who doesn't understand your language, they aren't going to be offended.

It's hard for me to understand the psychology behind being offended by only specific words, even if the word is used in a context that isn't meant to offend someone. For instance, if I were to say:

"I'm "F-word" happy!", I don't think that should be offensive to anyone, it's just an exclamatory phrase.

Being offended by a word is something that is taught, I don't know who started it but it seems pretty stupid.
