I believe that if people are seriously offended by a certain word that you should do the respectful thing and not mention it around them. However I also believe that he lets his personal opinions influence his decision making on this particular topic. He has personally called Tranny "The N-word for transgenders", which is extremely ignorant considering the emotional and historical weight the N-word carries with itself, something that Tranny does not or at least not to such an extreme.
Personally I'm never offended by the mere use of any word, so I might not be the best person to decide whether or not this word is punishable. I do however find it strange that we apparently hold different values on the TS and the forums - on the TS you'll be banned instantly for mentioning the word, here we're allowed to use it freely. Double standards, anyone?
Excuse me? When did I ban people immediately for mentioning the word? Tadgee was constantly being transphobic, something he also did yesterday that I believe got him banned, THAT is why he got banned today.
