It clearly wasn't a joke, but whatever, it's your call. It's just that I don't think it's an appropriate thread title. Just because YOU weren't offended doesn't mean someone else isn't. Excessive swearing isn't allowed but you allow someone to call someone else a "spic". I thought the whole point was to keep the shard a PG environment. If you're going to allow the use of ethnic slurs then you really shouldn't have a problem with swearing. After all, as you said, "words aren't harmful". Calling someone a "spic" is far more offensive than calling someone a "****ing idiot" multiple times. Muto, would you be offended if I started refering to you as "Muto the Spic"? I would at all times make it appear as though it was in a joking manner because according to you that makes it okay. In the end I am just a player and you are the staffer and you make the final call. But that certainly doesn't mean I am not allowed to point out something I think is silly.
