The overwhelming majority of the board DIDN'T use the word "nigger". and probably wouldn't use it to insult you in real-life.
There's enough pc-poilice everywhere else, this place is a respite from it and I'm probably not alone in thinking it was uncreative word-choice but not worth sending up the bat-signal for al sharpton. anyhow, the pc-police outgrows initial good intentions everywhere else on the net and turns into an adt gestapo fast if it's allowed to exist for name-calling.
