is the R word a "slur" against? I'm failing to comprehend how a word can universally be a slur without the definition or origin of the word being derogatory.

I'm failing to see why I have 2 violations for a word I was using in context of it's definition:

fwiw, if you think i'm being mean, then you're completely right. i have no sympathy for manchildren who are crying about not being able to use a slur on the internet
I'm sorry, but you're a manchild if you think that someone who is as active as UniversalStudios deserves running violations for using the R word once or twice.
thanks for letting me know, please also keep me updated on how the internet is a no holds barred beatdown fest and is Different from real life.

this is so dumb, you're overmoderating and trying to take a really dumb moral high ground
this rule has been around for a long time it's just that zovea's finally gotten around to complaining about it.

you should probably just appeal stuff and say why you think the violation is wrong because i just read that and i like moocow had no idea what you were trying to imply
I was rambling because Cute moronically banned me for the first violation then Moocow comes in and bans me again despite the 60+ open reports at the time.

Also it's really stupid that it doesn't state anywhere what the HC actually is so that people don't rack up violations for it. The least you can do is keep a reminder on the lobby wall until someone is competent enough to rewrite the rule.

appeal them if you don't think they're fair
Appeals don't work. https://epicmafia.com/report/142084

Even I, who have supported the mods throughout the past two months that I've been back, can not agree with this modteam anymore.

this is the area on the web where people are looking for things to be offended by. Be happy you don't know these people in real life

let's talk about how medically the r word was used and "stupid" has not
are you going to ban words like "moron" and "idiot" which referred to people with a certain (very low) amount of IQ?
no, because you're just arguing semantics

I didn't appeal the first one because I thought I got it because I was being offensive whereas Pranay in the same game used it but wasn't directly being offensive.

There is no use in trying to explain this to you because you are clearly content to live a life of blissful ignorance. When someone gives you a logical response, instead of trying to apply and understand it, you lash out. Like Sims said, appeal it if you don't think it is warranted.
Simsabout 11 years ago
well, i'm not going to undermine a mod that badly by singlehandedly overturning a violation that wasn't even appealed.

rtardation is specific to the learning compent of it, you can be intellectually "normal" and still crazy because you can suffer Bipolar disease, Schizophrenia and a bevy of other MENTAL diseases that are not INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES

He said ignoring the fact that there's blanket ban on slurs that only Pranay is immune to.
