People with the reduced gore versions can play fine on any server, the other people on the server will never know. And for decapitations, the zeds neck gets broken and the head is bent over sideways. This gives a visual indication that the zed has had something "bad" happen to it. And for on fire, the on fire behavior is still there, just smoke comes off the zed instead of fire.
Regarding why didn't we "put the effort of censoring the game elsewhere" - frankly, taking stuff OUT of a game takes almost no time at all. We don't find ignoring a possible path to customers as smart business, as we've sold a LOT of retail copies of games in Germany in the past.
