Steam Name: Tails
SteamID: STEAM_0:1:63251132
BanID: N/A
Ban Reason
"Racism"
Staff Member: Unknown, Conn I think
Involved users
Me and anyone else that comes up when you search "***", "nigg*r", "f*ggot", "retard" in the discord
Why should you be unbanned?
The ban reason I was given by Conn was racism, because I had said *** many times. My only justification for this is that before using it I had searched the chat to see if it had been said before (which would imply it would be allowed). There was over 300+ uses of the word "***", I felt this justified it being allowed. There were also many other uses of discriminatory words, such as "f*ggot" and "retard" - both of which are discriminatory on the same level as ***.
To save the reviewing staff members some times searching through the chat for people saying bad words, I have created a quick montage of people using them - included veterans, contributors, administrators, developers and super-administrators.

There seems to be quite a lot of confusion about what terms are allowed and what isn't - based on the sheer amount of other people (including staff) who used it without issue I asssumed it was allowed. I think an unban from the discord is pretty fair considering this, as well as this I think proper clarification on what is and isn't allowed would be beneficial to everyone.
I'd also like to add that part of my ban reason was that Qannter was also banned for racism - Qannter straight up said he wanted to kill all arabs, that is totally uncomparable to me saying *** as many people in the discord had said before me.
