Nah, you're above the law if you're smod.
Here's a quote from the main antagonist of this season.
It's like arguing with a toddler.
"racism is against the global rules and the terms of service. there's this very obvious line between harmless banter and blatant racism. calling someone a "filthy cotton picking nigger" is just downright racist. also, i like how you quoted that post but completely ignored this part:
"It is worth noting that any private channels (i.e: private IRC channels, clan boards, private servers in-game) are not actively policed and so you are generally free to do as you want there regarding the language you use, **though be aware reports will be looked at on a case by case basis.** For example, repeatedly insulting someone in your clan board will most likely result in staff intervention."
i talked with Faint a few months ago and he said that we should intervent if people are being racist in clan boards. that's what happened here; you didn't simply use a racial slur with no context, you actually called someone a filthy cotton picking nigger."
