1. You have previous bans of such sort using racist slurs, that is your warning, there is a zero tolerance for being racist on wL servers.
2. I had multiple people let me know about what you were saying, so I took it upon myself to further investigate the matter.
3. The ban will not be removed, and I will not reduce the sentence based on your prior ban history - the ban will stand.
You are very devious to what you do on warlord servers, and by this I mean that you try to get away with as many things as possible without actually trying to take a punishment for it. You look for the loopholes in each ban you've had and or kicks, this is a legitimate ban for a legitimate reason.
Whether I have played with you within that particular match does not matter, its the fact that you used a racial slur once again and others complained to me, so I looked more into the matter. I then reviewed a demo which is posted within the comments of why you were banned.
I highly advice you to watch how you're acting and or the language you are using on the servers, because it will be much longer the following time.
The previous bans for "racism" were unfounded. All of them were appealed by me because they were not actually racism. This is, however, the first time I have said anything that resembles racism, to which I got the appropriate response, a warning.
The previous bans were removed and replaced by circumventing an ignore function. This is the ACTUAL first time racism can roughly fit the picture, I received the warning for it and I stopped. I see you did your research, but not enough as to notice that the games I was accused of previously were not racial at all.
Now that I look into things, I looked up the definition of the words I was using. which by the way had nothing to do with black people. It had to do with Mideastern people, and what I found was that there was a clear message that it does not correlate with what racism is. In fact let me do the research here on wL.
Merriam-Webster definition:
Rasicm: prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior. or, the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.
The word I used was "sand nigger", which doesn't have a specific merriam webster definition, so I decided to look up alternatives.
Take urban dictionary: noun; a person of Middle Eastern descent due to the various desert regions there. Usually meant in a disparaging and demeaning way.
It might be demeaning which is why I said that it might roughly fit the picture of "racism".
Now on to the next point. Scientifically speaking there is no such thing as a race. Race is defined as
Race – a group that possess characteristic traits and gene frequencies that distinguish it from other groups in the same species. Racial designations are arbitrary and have not held up well when applied to Homo sapiens.
This is misleading because scientific studies show that in order to be considered a different race you need to have 25% genetic difference, humans at most have 10-15 % genetic difference. The only thing that holds the word racism together is culture,which is scientifically unfounded.
Quotes: In the same 1985 survey (
Lieberman et al. 1992), 16% of the surveyed
biologists and 36% of the surveyed
developmental psychologists disagreed with the proposition: "There are biological races in the species
Homo sapiens."

In the end what culture considers "racism" biologically speaking is just playful banter.
Anyone can see that the word racism needs new bounds since the progressive left seems to use it even if you look at a black guy the wrong way.
