As mentioned before, one reason for its lack of use in a game is highly likely to be the rating of the game. It's already been stated that it's not just a modern word. At some point in time someone's going to get tired of using "pissing" or "swiving" and will want another. We all have our flavor for how we swear even in real life, perhaps they just don't like how pissing or swiving are used. Nor do they want to bugger off.
Oh. It's a personal preference. I never said it was inappropriate for use, just that I prefer when people use words that are used by NPCs (I listed some examples) instead. Not like I haven't used 'fuck' in RP before. It's not used by NPCs likely due to game rating, as you said, but they use substitute words and sayings to communicate the same thing, so why not use what they are? Just more immersive imo when people put thought into fitting into the environment we have. Doesn't mean people are wrong not to, or wrong for writing differently, or wrong for not knowing any better.
