Please tell me how "nword" is in any way putting down an entire race of people.... Please tell me exactly why saying "nword" is a fucking 'loophole'. Not at any single point did anyone actually use N*****... THAT is higlhy offencive and is a bannable offence, not putting "nword" in chat.

Staff team on deathrun right now is literaly the worst I have ever seen it. People are here to enjoy themselves, and if they decide to troll then let that be their decision. I do not see a rule stating that if you put something in chat that the admins are too stupid to undestand is simple trolling you will be punished... Learn to play the game and not take it so seriously. You're literally killing the server by doing shit like this.

can't be the worst if i'm staff

if its true you got straight up banned for doing something without being told off first, I see a issue. In my book a person should always be told off before getting banned. keep in mind, the banhammer should be a last resort, so an actual warning after the verbal would also be normal before a ban..

So I was playing deathrun like I do, I died and typed "nword" Yes not the actual word, just nword. Now I got told to now loophole racism and I got confused because it's clearly not loopholing racism due to it being able to stand for "Nice" or "Negative" Now Robbin died and typed "Nword", He got muted and warned for loopholing racism and I think that's utter bullshit, he is now banned for 1 day for loopholing racism and mass disrespect. Mass disrespect isn't really ban worthy tbh and the loophole racism is clearly just something the staff are trying to get reasons to either ban or mute players for bullshit. I just want someone to say if this is loopholing racism or not, we never used to under context against anyone or anything. Thanks for readin

I mean It clearly wouldn't make sense you saying nword for nice... *Cough* I aint innocent here but anyway Just say nice/negative then...

The new discrimination policy has allowed staff to take action far faster to rulebreakers and allowed them to give harsher punishments faster. In TTT the amount of cases weekly has gone down a significantly whilst playercoutn seems to be as high. Even though this is correlation it doesnt mean its causation just an argument thats been in my mind for a while.

Whilst I do disagree with punishing people for saying literally N-word or R-word etc I do see why the staff members decided to punish as it was in clear deragatory and discriminating intent and was the very definition of loopholing around the rules
