This topic is actually one that concerned me slightly. I have a character who is an elitist jerk who would have no problem using vulgar terms. The only thing is that OOCly I would have problems using those terms and can see myself avoiding it in the future. Its not as if I shy away from swearing myself(though I try not to do it), but I'd worry that I may offend others, particularly if my character decided to be particularly vulgar in attempts to offend or provoke someone else. In addition to that, I'd be even more reluctant to do so around my friend whom I regularly RP with... for reasons that may sound silly, so lets just say that I would want to avoid being excessive or graphic in said person's presence even more so.
Its not that I find swearing to be necessary to a character, but I do find it shows a lot about their personality and I don't like hiding personality traits or making characters less realistic ;;
