The issue becomes whether or not staff want to make the work more complicated for them or not

giving the same punishment any time someone uses a word is more complicated than deciphering whether or not someone is actually talking about cars when everyone gives the exact same excuse? interesting take

You entirely misread what I said. The more complicated part would be whether or not something is derogatory or just a reference to shorthand for car. Clearly if someone says "Shut up Tranny" they're calling someone a derogatory term.

I have to respectfully disagree with this. We shouldn't be making things more complicated, especially this. We should be making things more simple. If anything I think we'll get more threads rather than less where we're going to be constantly litigating whether something someone said was in that "gray area" or not. It'll create headaches for the staff and be more trouble than it's worth. Not to mention, people will abuse that so much. They'll purposely find ways to troll with it and bend the rule as much as possible and try to get away with it because of that gray area. 

So I think it's better to not allow it in any context, even if it has an alternative legitimate meaning. It creates too much of a gray area and I frankly don't trust the TTT player base to use it appropriately like that. I think we'll have scenarios where people try to pass off the f slur again as meaning a bundle of sticks, there's also a food called the f slur (as an example).

There are just endless possibilities where someone will try to skirt around that kind of rule and use the gray area as excuse. Then they'll try to grandstand about how they didn't mean to be offensive/derogatory
