Mimic got a reaction from trav in Language Rule
We've tried having rules against "homophobic epithets" in the past however they don't work out very well in the context of this community specifically. Not only do members value that they are free to say what they wish, a lot of Staff (including myself) also agree that members of our community should have the freedom to express themselves however they wish (not including harassment, racism and PIP). Due to this, the rule against "homophobic epithets" was removed and was to be covered under harassment rules instead, which are far more lenient as they require proof of a pattern of harassment against an individual or group rather than someone saying "gay" or "faggot" in chat or over voice.
One could argue that homophobic epithets rule should match the rules against Racism as the use of both portray the community in a negative light; however, as a society the Western world accepts homophobia much more than racism and as a society we've come to associate the word "gay" or "faggot" with "stupid" and "asshole" (or some variant thereof) respectively. Apply this to the context of the Internet and this community and it doesn't make sense to enforce the two in the same manner. Maybe someday in future this will change, but until then we as a community have decided to opt for freedom of speech/expression over militantly enforcing policies against homophobic epithets like "faggot" or "gay".
