User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Help!/@comment-43874324-20200702151414/@comment-6032121-20200703165348 Well, there are words which have been historically used as slurs and continue to be used so. If e.g. "poof" doesn't offend you, that's all fine and dandy, but that shouldn't stop you from exercising basic common sense and recognising that it is usually employed with harmful intent, and that a lot of people are in fact offended by this malicious usage.

As for other words, I propose that we simply cut the Gordian knot and do the following: we will define a list of words which need the template (or whatever) by this thread's conclusion. And if any registered user complains in good faith that they feel another term in the category is offensive to them, we will take them at their word and add the template, no exceptions.
