Probably the best approach would be to just go ahead and ban certain words.  :lulz:

That might be a good way to get everyone on board with a STRICT POLICY OF CONDUCT that will be adhered to and use of such words deemed improper would lead to an immediate ban from this board as well as permanent excommunication from The Discordian Society.

Haven't you got poor people and women to abuse, Gorightly?

We have our ways of handling unwanted people.
If PL is pissing Nigel off, then I mostly pity him.

I'm skittish about using banhammers though, it is a slippery slope.
Give me a limit beyond which it won't be used and you may convince me, other than that don't hammer me bro.

Won't be a fucking problem.

As my last act as admin, I shall respect the wishes of the board and unban both of them.

Then I'm gonna hash my fucking password and walk the fuck away.

Enjoy your release from my horrible Stalinism.

It also won't be if you are admin, I trust your judgement.

Done.  My horrible errors have been corrected. 

And I am out of here.

We could start with "Gorightly". That word doesn't seem to denote anything worth two blistered fucks.

I didn't see anything he posted on the forum as bannable but if he is harassing people repeatedly after being told to stop in PM's then sure.

So, referring directly to a POC as "nigriss" (sic) is okay?

Serious question :

If I were a "POC"  would that language suddenly become acceptable?

Acting like the sheltered child saying "Its ok for black people to use the word "nigger" but when I do it I'm racist?" is both insulting to people here and it demeans you.

There are some fairly obvious reasons why it's not ok, chief among them being historic precedence used from a position of power over a group who didn't.

Said group still aren't treated equally and fairly and for every step forward there is a snivelling shit with tunnel-vision like you waiting to bleat "They can use a word but I cant, that's not equality, REALLY MAKES YOU THINK" as if you are sharing some revelation with us.

But as far as "Nigress" is concerned that isn't even a commonly used colloquialism, black or white it would be very unusual for anyone to use it.

You are back here because of your right to say it, you banal worthless moron, but it doesn't mean you have to be tolerated.

While I know you are being sarcastic, the point is not the word used.  It's the way it was used.  Using the word nigger and calling someone one (or an obvious derivative) are entirely different things.  It's not about censorship, those posts still exist, it's about this being a group of people that want to get together on the internet sometimes and tell stories and shit to each other, without racists thinking CHAOS means a free pass to promote bigotry and hatred.

it's illegal to shout racial slurs at people in Canada, but you'll have a hard time finding many Canadians that consider that particular law a violation of their free speech.  Except, of course, those that are racist.
