Maybe awareness is the issue? I know that most of the GMs are good people who have reason to dislike bigots, so I doubt it is from a lackadaisical attitude to bigotry.

I hereby pledge to help change this. Every time someone uses a bigoted term I am going to report it by using the ! in the top right corner, file a petition post in the petition forum, and start a thread in rants and flames calling them out.

If I am not alone, and others do this sort of thing as well, I think we can force the issue enough to where people will see bans happening, and just cut it the fuck out.

I'll click a little red button to stop having to read all the horrible, offensive, crap some people go through the trouble to type. The thing I hate most about certain posters on these forums (any forums really) is that most of the time they have no regards for the feelings of those they are NOT trying to insult.

It would be better if you can post a petition thread about it instead I think.. I am not 100% sure that the ! posts are seen by all GM's.
