TOPIC: The use of misleading / racist words

One of the biggest issues, words which I don't want to say get removed even if they're not offending anyone

Rhys: Jenga sent him a game with the n word in it and the picture got removed, the word wasn't actually offending anyone and it got removed, I'm sure if anyone got offended which they probably wouldn't would've reported it. I just wanted to put this out as it is the internet and even if a word isn't directed towards a person in a harmful manner if gets removed.

I don't want to start anything but it was just on my mind.

A bunch of racists could join the teamspeak in a private spacer and hating on all sorts of different races and discriminating in there, just because they're not offending anyone in their channel does that make it okay?

No, even if nobody is offended we have rules and obviously something with a racial slur will be removed regardless if it didn't offend anyone.

Teamspeak, Forums, Servers, same thing. The racism rule is on all of them, and yes i'm also just posting my opinion but it's also the rules.

Context doesn't matter here

I believe if the racist word isn't being used in a discriminative way it should be allowed eg songs etc

Cmon its the 21st century the world has adapted the n-word as much more than a racist slur, if it has a non discriminative context why shouldn't it be allowed, honestly who is going to be offended by rap song with the n word in it.

A word has as much power as a person lets it have

It honestly bothers that its such a harsh rule (ironic cause I say a lot of bad shit)

I see no reason why someone should be punished if no one involved is bothered or offended its when ts in a spacer is concerned I see no reason why the rules would be as harsh as in a public room or when in a room with just people you know WHO DONT GET OFFENDED. I have had quite a few ts bans over that shit, example I was in a room with tadgee and morgan, morgan had mic muted and me and tadgee were talking how we do and I was talking about a huge 18th party im having and tadgee said is gamersfunhouse going and I said yeah boiiii then he said is his brother going and I simply said "OH MY N-WORD BRAZZERAXE" BAM INSTANTLY MORGAN UNMUTES MIC AND BANS ME. No one got offended and it effected no one...

Actual racism should be punished but simply saying something that effects NO ONE AT ALL shouldnt...


Just my opinion tho

Also another point

If you actually get offended over a word that CAN'T OFFEND YOU aka getting offended by being called a N-WORD while being white you need to fuck right off and get out head out your arse

Grow a fucking pair its words that dont offend 99% of zarp players or gamers in general

I like how you can say cracker or other discriminatory words but if you say N you're instantly banned.

if there's specific rules set on racism, then obviously the racist thing is going to get removed even if it doesnt offend anyone. its like killing a homeless dude who has no family and then telling the cops that it's okay because no one will miss him, you're still going to prison.

I understand that and I fully respect if he would take offence to it therefore I will NEVER say anything that could be offensive towards him even if it was in a joking way. I know my boundaries with jokes and thats a personal thing NOT following rules on something

Thanks for the majority of people that stated their views on this topic and I believe if a racist word is in a song it shouldn't get removed and then you get banned. Also mr ping had a good point, here again I'm here to just state opinions etc. I hope this gets noticed by others

This thread offends me. pls remove

If you can't keep quiet then don't bother saying anything you're just trying to start drama and controversy on a post that doesn't even need it. It's a base of people stating their opinions on a small rule in the community

its just a word tho
