As we live in the 21th century on our modern society now you can't discriminate gays. Why am I saying this?, because I've se en some cases where calling someone "lesbian","gay" or "homosexual" its considered as " homobobic slurs" but why? Maybe that person is gay, but why would it be bad? Its a difference of using gay as a slur ir fag, as gay is a type of sexuality when fag is an insult, unless gay is used in a bad way its not a slur. PS: Im not gay myself fyi... So my point is that fag is an insult, gay is not (exept in some cases) an insult. Probably this has maybe been taken into account. Haters back off.
We already have a rule for this. 11. Do not discriminate against other players. (On the basis of religion, sex, race, orientation, ethnicity, age, etc.) Spoiler Examples of where it's not naughty: "I know somebody who is gay" "I like blokes" - Donkie 2k15 "I am homosexual" "There was gay pride in my town the other day" Naughty: "I know somebody who is gay, I dislike him because of it" "I like women, liking blokes is gay" ~ Dialect + Syntax could imply that gay is a negative thing "I fucking hate bum-pirates" "There was fag pride in my town the other day" To be on the safe side, if it could be taken offence to (Even in ambiguity), assume it will be taken offence to, and ask the player to stop. If worst comes to worst and they're pushing your buttons through ambiguity and things, just ban them and the staff team can probably deal with them on the forums.
It's all about context really. Louis CK put it best: "Faggot didn't mean gay, you called someone a faggot because they're being a faggot"
