There is a difference between shooting a gun into the air and shooting it into a crowd. Likewise using a racist word is not racist unless phrased in such a way. Even non-racist words can be made to be racist, because ultimately words are just words. They only have power if you give them power. Just a little advice for the future, that and not to perma ban people for disagreeing with your opinions.

Again i was neither racist or used racist language I was discussing the rules with the admin. Along the lines of just because you say a racist word doesn't make you a racist. The whole debate was around the 'n' word which maybe 20 years or more ago was considered highly offensive, but nowadays, in some circles isn't deemed to be racist at all. The issue is hazy at best and being ban happy in a online enviroment where most chatter is flippant and immature seems over the top. The only reason i persist with this is because i firmly believe i did nothing wrong and it was the admin being a dick. Its a shame because i have enjoyed playing on your servers for several months previously without any incident.
