When you (not YOU personnally, it's a manner of speaking) use a racist word in a comm and refuse to acknowledge your mistake for days, you can't be surprised to have wanks.
I know the mods main fault was ignorance and not racism. But I refuse to take the blame for reacting. If we had not, this racist slur would have stayed there. We should all be glad to be part of fandoms where we acknowledge racism is a problem. It SHOULD make people react and it is not be treated with indifference. And if it takes a wank to make people understand how serious it is, so be it.
