I'm just gonna say 6 months. The fact that they later claimmed they don't care has me thinking they need something that'll stick or sting.
Perma if they do something else.

Slurs of any kind in any context are an insta-ban afaik

I'm fine with a warning btw

In Fandom's eyes. This forum doesn't need to be as strict and ignore all context

In a similar situation that occurred fairly recent I was told the exact opposite, and that we have a precedent for considering slurs ban worthy regardless of severity.
Not that I agree with Fandom's strictness but if we have a precendent it's only fair to stick to it.

I disagree with this notion. Obviously, context should matter when judging the situation. I am not sure how anyone could argue otherwise.

If there's disagreement with the staff themselves we will probably have to work it out somewhere else. The report thread is not the place for deciding the standards
- 10,758

If there's an official standard written down somewhere I will be willing to implement that

Apologies for interrupting, but I think this post was advocating for just a ban without specified timings, rather than a permanent ban so the precedent doesn’t suggest permanent ban w/out context, just a ban w/out context, with context deciding on the specifics of timings
at least that’s what I gathered from the message at the time
- 15,591
- 22,892
Yeah, I already agreed that permanent is too much. Now we're discussing if it's ban worthy or just a warning.

How's this even ban worthy? This term is used to refer to a group of people or fans of any franchise, not an actual slur per se.
And he is not even insulting anyone. He should get warning to not use it as it can be interpreted as an insult against some people.

He did get a warning, and proceeded to reply to said warning with this. That would warrant more, wouldn’t it?

The last half of that word is a derogetory term for Homosexuality.

Sorry for butting in, but that suffix/slang literally originates from tripcodes/oldschool imageboards where people constantly call eachothers slurs all the time. I fail to see how this isn't derogatory or homophobic.

I know that pretty well, but the term has been bastardized so much is used like I stated previously, especially if it's after x group or franchise.
That's why I doubt @UltimateDarkGod666 was trying to use it that way.

I think he was joking, and should be allowed to defend himself or apologize is he was indeed trolling (which would be hypocritical with his previous comment).

I've reverted the edits from Gon's profile as well, tho imo it doesn't seems vandalism but an inexperienced user, I think instructions and warning would be fine.

Well, it seems that Ant already gave him instructions previously and he still, so i think he should be banned

The dude is vandalizing Kurapika's page even after Dereck reverted the edits.

Blocked.
Another staff can change the length of their ban if they decide to.

Thank you. However, he seemed to be a clueless newbie who did not mean any harm, going by the nature of his edits, so I think that a 3 months block should probably be enough.

Since he did not seem to use the f-word as a slur towards a specific person or sexual identity, but rather as generalised rude slang, I suppose that we should take the context into account, but he also seemed rather rude and unreasonable in general in the OPM discussion thread, and opposed Andytrenom's official staff reprimand, so I suppose that a month long warning block is probably a good idea at least.

That solution sounds fine to me.

Okay. Would you be willing to handle the issue, @Andytrenom ?
Also, what about this, @Celestial_Pegasus ?

3 months is fine with me.
- 10,758

Alright

I suppose I should ban him in the wiki too?

That's not really block worthy offense, but it's a dick move to spoil a big movie/game/series before it's released to the public. I would remove some posts if one can send me links to post(s) in question.

Well I was asking if I can block someone. Like not see their posts and stuff
