I mean you can say nigger but don't make it about some kind of a heritage, because /tg/ servers always played second fiddle to /vg/ servers, and were considered the normie ones.

Re: Racial slurs
This would go nowhere.
There would be 10x more backlash against punishments for slurs than when cat people were added.
I'm mixed, and just about every slur we see here every day can be directed at me.
I don't like it, but there's no point in getting upset about it.
We're a 4chan server, there's going to be a ton of edgelords and some genuine racists.
The backlash from trying to wrangle in the language players can use is simply not worth the trouble.
That's just the way it is.

If it gets excessive it should be an admin issue.

It's really interchangeable with any other vast multitude of throwaway insults someone can stutter in your direction after being tased, so I don't see a point in trying to mind-read some Rule 1 breaking behavior out of a word you might be taking too seriously. Just chuckle and zap them again.

Re: Racial slurs
honestly though if someone's spamming slurs over the radio or running around screaming nigger at people just file those sorts of actions under "a stupid game" and ban them if they ahelp over winning a stupid prize
edit: this probably works for in-universe slurs too like calling a lizard a ligger, don't expect the admins to save you if said lizard throws you out an airlock or beats the shit out of you

you're a faggot for wanting to censor people

Re: Racial slurs
Can the headmins do a poll for censoring the word nigger, ligger, kike, faggot, queer, but more specifically anything referring to non gender neutral terminology. We should use they. Proper pronouns like Shi and Hir to refer to hermaphroditic characters in game.

Re: Racial slurs
Shitposting aside. /tg/ administration and server culture has no interest in tone policing. Only cases we would really step in on are repeated, targeted harassment or rule 8 issues. If this really bothers you though, I suggest you try Goon station or Yogstation, they should be more your speed.

Thinking about that, if slurs really become an issue and admins won't take any actions, someone could just PR a word filter like most multiplayer games already do

Re: Racial slurs
We used to have word censoring here on the forums as well. I disabled it in my prefs years ago but it seems it was disabled globally as well.
So a word filter you can turn on in your game prefs would be the best thing, without the need to force it on everyone

Re: Racial slurs
the 18+ rule is just a formality.
the current way to enforce it doesn't do shit so you're going to get dumb shit like this
back on topic, this will never be enforced consistently. It's probably just one of those things that would never be done by half the admin team and cause more drama. It's been like that in the past and it will be like that in the future.
