Thats the thing!I did not use it in a racial way.I was talking about all races of people 'not just one.Any low class person of any race is the n word to me.White black brown yellow.That is how I said it.
Nigger is a noun in the English language, most notable for its usage in a pejorative context to refer to black people, and also as an informal slang term, among other contexts. It is a common ethnic slur. The word originated as a term used in a neutral context to refer to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger, meaning the colour "black".
it is unfare, but it maybe affend some people just because its in the dictonary doesnt mean you just say it
I stated in the same post that it was not at any one race.Im sorry that I used that word.I can't help it if people don't read the Dictonery.I will not use that word any more on here.
i am posting this as information and educational purpose only, after this post this word will not be aloud on these boards...
The term nigger is now probably the most offensive word in English. Its degree of offensiveness has increased markedly in recent years, although it has been used in a derogatory manner since at least the Revolutionary War. Definitions 1a, 1b, and 2 represent meanings that are deeply disparaging and are used when the speaker deliberately wishes to cause great offense. Definition 1a, however, is sometimes used among African-Americans in a neutral or familiar way. Definition 3 is not normally considered disparaging—as in “The Irish are the niggers of Europe” from Roddy Doyle's The Commitments—but the other uses are considered contemptuous and hostile.

like i said it dont matter race its offencive ether way, and thank you for not using it any more. we all know what it means, eather its directed to black,white,asian, and so on...
better a infraction than a ban
Im sorry if it was taken the wrong way.I was not trying to hurt anyone.Im still not happy about getting an infraction.
no its not my rules, but it is my job to enforce the forum rules, and thats what WE are doing, its a infraction not a ban, be good and it will go away simple as that
its cool man... i just posted what i did to clear up why it was given, likei said i didnt give it but i know why it was, i also know you werent the only person to get a infraction
When you get an infraction you get a notification and it tells you from who and how long you have it.
I didn't mean it in a bad way but should not have used it at all.I don't hate any race of people and i don't want anyone on here to think I do.Sorry to anyone that was hurt or offended by my words.
