International board, or something, and the mods, and ciao

[Kralizec]

I don't think that the post we're talking about should have been censored, regardless of who wrote it. The point is that it was an elaborate, obvious joke (Louis even made fun of himself) as opposed to "OMG lol fag" (note: I'm not suggesting that this is you) I can understand why people think the word should be banned regardless of how it's used, but it's clear to me the two are different.

It's worthy to note that moderation on this board, or probably anywhere, isn't always perfectly consistent, and not necessarily because of bias. Without telling a long story, I once got a warning for doing something. A couple of weeks later another mod was explaining moderating policy in an unrelated thread, and implied that what I did would have been permissable. I didn't publicly complain about it, but I did ask for clarification, and the answer was basically that all moderation is done on a case-by-case basis.
