Yes, however only in the Music channels and To Players Use common sense. This does not mean there is a free for all in terms of using racist language across our services. Infact expect people’s use of language to carry on as normal, but expect punishments for first offenders and borderline offences to be reduced.

My understanding is so long as the language is not derogatory, it does not infringe the discrimination policy. However, language used in a derogatory context as such would be infringing the policy.	.uzi Offline Former Community Manager Foos yer doos? Posts: 6009 Thanks received: 2444 Karma: 123

As long as the music doesn't have any direct hatred towards a race, homosexuality or anything amongst those lines - you're okay to play these songs.

You can dude they literally just said that if it contains "racist terms" it's fine as long as it's not a directly racist song.

No.

Maybe you should edit the new policy in that case since it seems to me that by saying that staff should punish "users who seek to inflict harm on others by using racist, discriminatory or otherwise inappropriate language (abusive, offensive or disruptive)" it seems like you are saying that only when those terms are used maliciously the user should be punished.

Not on any game servers, only music channels in TS and Discord. I believe everything has been answered so locking this now.
