About wording rules in the server..

[Arisu]

I agree with Mclovin and Natalya, those words are just as bad as racist comments, you have no idea how many times I have been called a Dyke just because I am a girl playing CSS, i take a offense to the word, and i think fag and dyke should not be allowed to be said, but other people seem to think it is okay to use fag, dyke. However when the N word comes out of someones mouth or it is written, it is an uproar in the server and the person is immediatly kicked. Isn't it bieng a little ignorant/hypocrit to accept these words and not the others? The rules should be fixed.

P.S(Another thing i want to add is I do see a lot of people who say things against gays and lesbians. Basically gay bashing which i HATE with a passion. And it just shows the level of intelligence people have.)

So what are we doing with the rule? Will the words fag/ dyke/ homo not be allowed? Let me know.

That would be dumb.
But whateverrr

[Natalya]

Some of these would be allowed in certain contexts though, like dyke can be used in a non-offensive way if actually talking about lesbians. Same with gay, but others like homo and faggot... I can't see them being used in a constructive fashion.

it is indeed a interesting point to discuss.. so we gonna make a list or not?

This should be interesting to watch unfold, I think I'll sit on the sidelines and watch it backfire. So many different words will come out of this. You're only looking at two sides of the box. There are far more words that have derogatory meanings.

If someone kills someone you adore/love do you have the person killed for the crime? Or do you subdue them to delay the sentence. On one hand you're avenging a death, but from another point of view you've sunken to the mental layer of the convicted, which makes you no better. Then again if you subdue them, matters are taken out of your hands and anything could happen. The point I'm attempting to make is that unless your list covers everything you will have accomplished nothing by making it. And short of a filter on text or an admin present and alert at all times, stuff will get by. And theres also the people from other cultures speaking in tongues most of us do not know. There are many variables you have to cover with this sort of thing. So choose which ones matter the most to your plan, I wish you luck with your budding paradox.

My two cents, I'll probably edit all of this post out later, insomnia talking.

in my opinion we dont need a list of words. a lot of ppl use those words to joke around. if they are said in the way arisu described its not acceptable. but as long as ppl are just joking around it should be ok. thanks for your attention

and arisu u know u can tell an admin about it when it happens. or get their ip and send it to me when im on.

ill put it this way..... racist remarks are not allowed, comments on gender or religion were never discussed or considered something to be a banable offense. so that just makes this thread null and void.

i totally agree with yah cancer yah brought up a good point about this.... and what sios said that would be it for the words i guess? and when some 1 is feeeling attacked by words he just needs to get a admin ingame and if a admin is ingame he just should look out to the discussion that is being made and what the words are being used for then i guess...

I thought Jew was a prohibited insult though.
