Why not? Especially when it's not meant in a derogatory fashion.

Here is the problem with saying these things in game, it's pretty simple. I've said 'nigger' or 'jew' in twd chat with plenty of staff on. It ISNT racist if you are discussing the terms, their use in society, or it's within lyrics etc. The point that people cross all the time that gets so many people banned is really simple. While arguing that what they've done is perfectly fine, the re-use said words, OVER AND OVER. Then they wonder why they're being warned or banned - and still, say the words more. At this point, all you're doing is pushing staffs buttons, and you deserve the warning/ban. Saying these words once, in a non racial/insulting context is one thing. Throwing the words out there just to tempt a staffer, or to start an arguement is foolish and deserving of consequence. Really, I don't think I've ever been warned for saying the words once in a fashon like I just did - because it's obviously not racist, and I'm not trying to start shit, I'm merely making a point, and leaving it at that. You don't need to say the words over and over, at that point you're only forcing staffs hand. You'd think people would be smart enough to realize this by now. Now Stompa, I'm not saying your situation was something like this - I don't know. Yeah, there are bad staffers out there so obsessed with power that they may try to warn me or you over something un-racial just because it TECHNICALLY fits the guidelines - but thats life. Just most of these situations, are as I've said.

edit - i actually considered censoring the first word, but then i realized it would defeat my own arguement. It really isn't racist, and if people can't make that distinction, they shouldn't be on staff, nor have any power whatsoever. I can't understand it, both these words refer to a race of people. Granted the first was used as an insult for many years, but in some countries, it's actually how they refer to black people. Same with jew, honestly, thats ridiculas, i can understand the first being touchy - but come on. I know jews, none of them are insulted by being called one, because thats what they are. As long as you aren't doing it insultingly. Jesus, we are mostly grown ups around here right? Get a grip people. Just stop toying with staff and then whining when you get burned.

Oh I have, and I bitched, and I was somewhat vindicated, although the warning stands.

So I guessed people missed the point about tempting staff by throwing the N-bomb around just to look cool. One person says the word, and then everyone just jumps on because OMG if he got away with it I must be able to as well. Context anyone?
