[censored], I was about to google misognyinc or whatever the [censored] they're talking about to make sure I could still reply with "that's gay." Given the context of your post, I assume we're in the clear for now.

I do think GW is being a bit too sensitive here.

I think specific racist attacks at other posters should = banz0r. However, there is room for some seemling "racist" remarks expecially when they make fun of the people who actually take these comments seriously.

I mean come on GW, you saw Borat. Seemingly anti-semetic comments actually do the best job in making fun of these ridiculous prejudices.


Ps. "The Jews! They have changed form!!"

For everyone ragging on Gildwulf, this no racism policy is a 2+2 policy. It's likely the admins had a little talk with GW and told him to do it. As the self-appointed 2+2 racism expert, I'm surprised this wasn't obvious before. You're not going to get away with making racist comments.

I think my point is that a zero tolerance policy for anything resembling what could be a construed as a racist remark is silly and accomplishes next to nothing. I think that evaluating the context is important here.

For example, Banning Greefield for blatently racist insults = A++ move.

Where as banning people for suggesting the NIGGAPLZFOLD2 screenname would not be.

It's simply easier to just ban it outright then to have to make this judgment over and over regardless of how clear it is. Though, I agree with you.
