Wasn't by me ... course, I read very few of your posts so I probably missed it. Though I wouldn't report you, you might give some thought as to why you insist on using racist language? Why does that kind of thing come into your mind? I recently noticed that wannabe SI Nanny Dale Baker had posted to one of the SI people complaining about use of the word f**k - he'd done a search for the word. I suspect he's also doing searches for other bad language so it wouldn't surprise me if he caught you and kneejerk reported you. I'll bet that guy does at least half of the "reporting" of bad behavior. He was undoubtedly the class snitch in school. BTW I also read one of the SI folks talking about how nudity turned off advertisers. I suspect that use of certain bad words scares away advertisers too. I'm kind of sympathetic to avoiding things that would hurt the site, making it less viable over time. It's easy enough to use euphanisms, abbreviations, stick an asterisk in. Is a little less offensive and avoids any searches by net nannies and potential advertisers.
