Involved, was on the server and read the discussion online ongoing between Brikaas and accused.
Let me start with the use of the word gay. Since when is the use of this word seen as homophobic? Its probably the least homophobic word out there when you are describing someone who is attracted to his/her own gender. I can think of a lot of other 3 letter words people can use to describe gays in a way which is far, far more offensive.
That being said, the word was yelled randomly without any context so some people could have seen it as offensive. Banning/blacklisting seems for me a way too harsh punishment for this. A normal polite "plz stop that" would have been enough imo.
