Hi Steel, 

Honestly, it’s a learned lesson that should not have been blown out of proportion this way. Considering that you are upset and didn’t realize you knew it was a slur, I recommend brushing this off your shoulder. It was an accident, staff interpreted it as something else to a slur which has different meaning for two different topics and you got warned. I personally wouldn’t take this to the extent it is now and try to enforce it as a word to be used. I understand it’s condensed version for the word for transmission but it should be let go already. The warn will go away in 3 months and you’ll know better to not say it. For including the definition of slurs in the guidelines and MOTD, no. Deadpool stated it very well and would be very unnecessary to include. Brush it off and learn.

Edit: There’s also staff discretion which is solely there to make sure staff know and differentiate what are slurs and what are not slurs. Unnecessary to include over +250 words with multiple definitions on a guidelines document.
