Conquer Club

I don't understand why this particular form of bigotry/racism is singled out. Shouldn't there just be a general policy regarding all forms of racism/bigotry?

I mean there are many other words that would fit into this category. Bigoted & racist words for all manner of races, religions, sexual orientations etc. exist.

Can someone explain why this bigoted/racial word gets special treatment?

Depends on your interpretation of the word variants. I interpret it to mean any racial vilifying word.
Racism has no place on a world wide site such as CC. If you see a reportable offence, go straight to the C&A forum or send me a PM.

Some words are just fun to say when amongst friends or being pissed at dice. ltiyank calls me a cheating f4ggot at least once a week, and sometimes wins those same games once the dice turn back haha. But yea, it's best to not have the N word floating around here or anywhere. Maybe it seems dumb, especially since I doubt there's many actual black people on the site but still, speaking as someone born and raised in the south, and all my ancestors are from the south, as fun as it is to call your friend's my N's, probably best to keep it off this site.

Demonfork you're probably a fucking Italian ass Jew anyway. See what I did there ? Italians used to be considered non white when my wife's great great grandparents immigrated, and My great great grandparents weren't exactly welcomed with open arms during the Irish potato famine. Demonfork and I talk shit a lot, we good. I have no idea if he is Italian or Jewish

There once was a player called “coon and friends” would this be deemed racist or merely a clerical error or perhaps an administrative oversight?

I find it truly fascinating how freaked out people get over being told not to say the N-word. It's amazing that we have to have a pinned thread stating it and hilarious if it wasn't so fucking lame that, in that thread there's evidence that the author of that thread apparently had to address people saying "But why can't I say it if they can?"

Now there's this dog whistle about why we're singling it out. Which seems like thinly veiled annoyance that you're being told not to say a word disguised by "shouldn't we not say any racist things?" That last sentiment, I agree with, ofc. But it just seems a disingenuous path to get there if you're going to start by taking issue with the n-word perhaps being thought of as particularly bad.

It reminds me of people angrily yelling "ALL lives matter!" Because they weren't saying that until someone dared to suggest that black ones do.

Those were some interesting times in the forums!! Back when this place was still cooking!! And yes, I would love to follow those around in the real world and see how often they use the word on the regular. By "THOSE PEOPLE", i mean people that get upset when told not to use the word in the forums or life in general!!
