    Today, while on Skyblock, I came across someone who thought it was okay to use the 'N' word. Now, I told him that it was disrespectful and to stop using it. While doing so, a donor asked how/why this word was disrespectful.
    Explanation: This word, although only a word at face value, has SO much more meaning. It's not like cracker, or any other racial slur, because there's history behind it. The 'N' word is associated with decades of racial inequality and blood-shed, and as such, still does what it was intended to do back when slavery and racial segregation were still largely evident: to dehumanize others.
    Please be mindful in what you say, and if applicable, remove this word (and any other hateful words) from your vocabulary. That being said, you may now resume with your day!;)

    100% agree
    I don't tolerate use of racial slurs at all if i see it. That kind of word should not be shown in public for the chat to see.

    I completely agree. Not only should it be used in public, but you just generally shouldn't even consider using it in the first place.
