Staff The N-Word

4. Users will not engage in harassment and abusive behavior.

Under this simple, versatile rule falls "Racism".

I'm going to keep this short, so nothing can be misconstrued, confused, and it's open and transparent.

The N-word is not permitted here at Chaos, no matter how hard or soft you say it. I understand there is a racist way to write it, and a familial, brotherly way to write it. It is as versatile as the "F" word.

But it does not exist in Star Wars, and it will not exist at Chaos.

Under General Rule #4, if you are reported for it's usage in public or with another member of the community who did not feel comfortable with you using it, disciplinary action will be taken.

Kinda sad that this even needed to be said.

Considering the 'laugh' reacts I know who not to RP with anymore. Wow.

"Considering the laugh reacts, I now understand the people who spent years treated like trash for the color of their skin find this ruling stupid" is what I think you meant.

Maybe instead of assumimg the worst of people, shoot them a PM and ask.

Annnnnnd that's a perfect time to lock that thread.

I'll leave the posts up above to show both sides of the aisle, as well as my own pretty cold take:

There's no pleasant way to bring up this topic.

That's why it almost never gets brought up. No Admin, RPJ, or member ever wants to be in this position - a breadth away from bias, a post away from racist.

This is not a matter of skin color or race. You are all avatars to me of a world and immersion in a galaxy far, far away. I try to keep those subjects of discussion as far as I can hold them, in the context of this community.

But this is the way forward that I am dictating, like it, hate it, or laugh react it. Members are always welcome to find or create a Star Wars RP forum that proudly drops N-bombs everywhere. It will not be here, it will not be in our Major Factions, and it will not be in our roleplays.
