does staff have a strict rule saying that anyone who says a word that implies racism, gets banned?

I ask this because half the staff seem to ban people for this and the other half don't...or maybe its because of twats again

this is a game...it's normal for some ppl to be racist i guess but look at it this way...all the small children playing the game leave and next day they go to their moms and dads and are like "What up ***?" How would you react if you were that mother or father?

We have always had a zero tolerance policy to try and totally wipe it out and it is working. Out of all the words that are typing in Trench Wars in an hour, we get about 2-3 cases of racism out of millions of sentences

Edit: zz regularly backs up my point

What is an appropriate manner in which to use a racist sounding word?

So now having strong rules versus racism/discrimination is "craving to be the politically correct", "which is pathetically sad."
There is no reason you would have to use those words, and they happen to be against regulations.

I was implying that certain staff members don't understand what is bannable and what isn't, i am commenting on oversensitivity. I don't think that the racism policies of TW should be changed i just think that staffers should be taught what is/isn't racism because at the moment they don't understand, Ban now, think later?
