anti-white racist words are uncensored, and some others probably are too. racism is offensive to everyone not just black people. ban all the words!
naughty naughty, dont say cracker again young man

You can add any player to your Foe list, which will remove their posts from game chat.

i didn't realise having white skin was something people were ashamed of and got upset if it was pointed out.

im not ashamed of my color
and i think that all posts that even seem racist should be deleted
and that the poster should get a 1 day forum/live chat ban for the 1st time, a 2 day for the 2nd, a week for the third, and just plain forum/live chat/inbox banned for the 4th
edit: a cracker:

The term, "cracker" refers to the habit of ancient Caucasian slave-owners to use a whip, or to "crack" a whip when their negroid slaves exhibited laziness or insubordination. It's a shortened form of the term, "whip cracker." It is now employed with a derogatory intention, primarily by racist negroids in the U.S., against Caucasians.
There is no such thing as a "racist word" (words are sociologically neutral, but may be employed with any sociological intention). If, however, there exists a censorship of anti-negroid terminology on this site, then the same rule should be applied to anti-Caucasian terminology.
If not, then the site administrators are actively practicing anti-Caucasian racism.

i don't see the racism in it, it seems like it would be a statement of fact. for the record i am as white as a cracker. i am also slightly salty if licked.
anyway here, crackers means crazy & crazy people come in all colours.
