I have a question, I was playing on your server last night, and someone said "darn", and one of your clan members said "Watch your language". I don't know why you would consider this bad. I said it once and nobody warned me, and there were about 10 of you clan members on at the time. So I'm just wondering if you consider darn bad language, because if you do I won't say it on your server.

Yes, we do. (Sometimes the clan members might not notice -- or they may be alive and the person who says it was dead.)
It is a euphemism of another swear word -- which means it's what you say when you want to swear but you say something else instead so that you're actually swearing (by intent) without saying the actual swear word. Instead of doing this, you should learn to tame your tongue (as James says) and train your mind NOT to use any form of such language. (It can be done, really!)

We have a zero-tolerance policy for cursing, so that includes 'darn' aswell.

I have seen this on our servers before to, and like Peace said, it is a subsitute for cursing, which has the same intent.
Something else I have notice is when you write the letters "R" and "N" next to each other, as in "rn" it looks like to letter "m". WHich also looks like a poor spelling for the actuall cruse word we are talking about.
