bagggel reacted to Tatost in HELP NEEDED : LOWEST REP POSSIBLE
Why must people casually throw Nep's name out as an insult? You don't help anyone in any way, and you sure as hell don't make it any easier for him to better himself as a person. As someone who has been trusted with the position of admin, you should know better than to do this shit. I know for a fact that he can be a good kid, I've seen it plenty of times on the CS Surf server when he wasn't constantly ridiculed.
I don't mean to make this post seem like it's targetting you, Owlknight. In fact, this should go for literally anyone who has been part of the problem. Again, you are an admin, help the kid out instead of joining everyone else.
Sorry if this is derailing, it just needs to be said. This is a gaming community that was made -- not to make people feel like shit, but to feel welcome.

bagggel reacted to realBelloWaldi in Racial and Sexual Orientation Slurs
Because of context. I don't call people faggots and neither do I call people niggers, but let me try to give my opinion on this subject. I'm also going to refer to the "n-word" as "nigger", since that is the word we're talking about and we're having a reasonable discussion where I'm not using it as an insult.
As far as I know, it's not like the word "faggot" is allowed no matter what. The word is allowed in a certain context in which you are not harassing someone. For instance, if someone were to call QueenofHeart [or any queer person] a faggot because of the fact that she is transgender, that would be punishable. However, in my opinion the meaning of the word faggot has kind of changed. I'm definitely not denying that awful people are still using it to be homophobic, however, there is a certain episode of South Park that illustrates this situation. To briefly summarize the episode, a ton of bikers start annoying the city and people eventually start calling them fags to the point where everyone just refers to them as fags. At some point people got concerned because of the apparent homophobia that someone did a TV report showing a child a picture of a gay person and a biker, asking whom of the both they think is a "fag". The child pointed to the biker and completely ignored the actually gay person. In other words, in this and in many other instances the word "faggot" is not being used in a homophobic context. If someone on a tf2 server is like "shut up, faggot", in 95% of the cases he doesnt use the term "faggot" to insult gay people, but instead to insult an annoying person.
Does that make it better? Kind of, I think. While I'd agree that nobody should say it, people always will and I don't think we, as a gaming community, have the power to stop people from doing that. Our regular players, yes, probably, but literally anyone who ever joins the servers? I don't think so.
People have already started to describe generally annoying people as "faggots", way before this community was even established, I believe.
However, the meaning of the term "nigger" has not changed. People still mostly use it to be intentionally racist. There is basically no context where it would make sense to call someone a "nigger" simply because they are annoying. People haven't started doing that and still aren't.
Again, I'm not condoning the usage of either of these words, I'm just trying to explain why there is a difference in my opinion. Not to mention the argument @Elcark made last time, that we'd have to basically start banning everything from here:
List of disability-related terms with negative connotations - Wikipedia
EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG If people intentionally use the word "faggot" to discriminate against gay people, then that should be a no go, but using it in a relatively "harmless" context which doesn't relate to discriminating against gay people is something different.
Also, you should watch the episode of south park I was talking about if you have time, it's called "The F-Word".
