[quote="Newdude" post=931214][quote="LonelyDodo" post=931207][quote="Newdude" post=931204]you have history being disrespectful with staff and i do believe joking about cancer could be offensive to some people.[/quote] Anything you say could be taken as offensive. You could get offended about this comment, but its a risk I am willing to take to change your mind in pursue of a fair action. Instead of saying it could be offensive I would describe it as an action aimed to offend a staff member as that it was here is an interesting piece regarding this from a person I respect very much. (its less than 2 minutes you have time to watch this) https://youtu.be/VEOHQoh82bs[/quote] you are correct everything could be taken as offense but a joke about cancer is extreme and disgusting. it was a valid punishment as he joked about something that could kill you, an extreme disease. what if someone in the server had a history with cancer? they would get offended it is like the racism policy no matter what race you are it is a racial slur. in this case no matter if you have cancer or not it should not be joked about since it's extreme.[/quote] Now I would argue that the point of a joke is to be offensive but this is besides the point as I would like to press on the point that we indeed are on the same page and user is in the wrong.
