Quoted: big tit mod has been missing lately. View Quote Thats kinda what most of them do. Come in all strong handed and inconsistent causing confusion and outrage then they go silent for a while I guess they just wait for the furor to die off naturally. It sure is easier than explaining yourself i guess. |

Banning people for linking to "racial language" is completely unprecedented in the 18 years I've been here. |

D_J’s ruling on this last night was laughable. For a bunch of 2A absolutists, there sure seem to be a shitload of people whose feelings get hurt by a word. |

It is the sole reason I don't have a paid account anymore. It is their website though and they can do what they please....just so we are clear. Additionally, I disagree with him locking those accounts over that given that it is a news story. I'm interested to here from staff over this. |

My buddy works for the team and this is a big deal for them...

Meh. NASCAR's PCness killed them for me about a decade ago.
Rodeo and bull riding are my go-to sport now. |

And yet the people in this thread decry the censorship, but only on the white man, and the hyper punishment for the word's use on a board that bans the use of that very word.

There was a time when Louis CK videos, Chris Rock stand-up, Dave Chappelle videos were all played here and it didn't matter because we all knew what was up. Hell, we've had music threads where classic rap gets posted and it's never been an issue before. Now all of a sudden, we're turning on a dime zero tolerance style. Understandable that some people would raise an eyebrow. |

Just watching / listening to that clip, it was very obvious that it was just chatter between to good friends.
After all, chatter between drivers and their crews, especially spotters, is a very personal thing. The driver is literally putting his life in the spotters hands and his judgement calls. Sure this is 'only' a video game, but its pretty real, and very possible to get totally immersed in it. IIRC, his spotter is not black, either. So he should have called him 'honkey' ? Has the spotter voice an opinion /explanation of the incident.? Of course, the correct way to use the N-word is covered in several videos. Google 'How a White Man says the N-Word to a Black Man ' for a good illustration of ghetto-speak. |

Good lord, don't page the mods. It's like writing the ATF for a determination. Equally foolish, and equally grounded in bullshit/vague regulations and bullshit interpretations of those interpretations with no real oversight.

View Quote I make it a point to not say some words so they don't accidentally slip out in the wrong company, but my understanding is the version of the word ending in "a" is less offensive and ok for use by certain demographics, but the version of the word with the hard R is much more offensive. i'm not entirely sure how that makes sense, but none of it really does. |
