Second of all, I don't think we have many mentally challenged people browsing the Creepypasta Wiki, and if we do, I don't think they'd be interested in reading the forums of all places. They would be on here for the service the wiki provides--holding an archive of a lot of scary stories. I really don't want to say that next we won't be able to say "runner" because it "discriminates" against legless people, because that would be a fallacy, but who knows, it could happen.

Maybe we should just rule it like we half-ruled the cunt request. If it offends someone in chat, they should be asked to stop. But there's always going to be people actually typing out "I'm offended by the word retard" and we'll have no way of knowing wether they are actually offended or just trying to get a user kickbanned. I'll have to agree with you there. IF they are INDEED meaning to offend people with the use of those slangs, then surely they SHOULD be given a warning for this. If they insist in being arrogants, then ban them. IF they're not meant to offend anyone though, so let it go, right? I think asking at least is never too much, though..
