Protip: Racism is likely to get you banned.

And if it's a sabotage account, we should be able to do something like "undo all actions by this account" or something?

This should be feasible from a database perspective, at least for items for which you're already storing the edit history. Also, it would be a very handy tool to counter vandalism.

With regards to homosexuality/sexism, I think it's only fair that the same rules apply to them. Saying things like "faggots should burn in hell" or "women belong in the kitchen" is sufficient grounds for a ban. Society seems to be a lot more tolerant of these sorts of statements so I'll leave it to the mods to judge whether a comment crosses the line or not. But don't expect any sympathy from me when you complain about a ban.

To the people who got banned for racist comments even though it wasn't explicitly against the rules, I'm sorry. But really. What were you thinking?

I love you.

I'm glad this line is finally being drawn; I've seen some pretty tasteless remarks around Danbooru on the subject in the past.

Out and out racism is banned on 4chan actually. Granted the enforcement is spotty.

Were you banned or something? Sure seems like you just registered to post in this topic/create a sleeper account (and you act like a 4chan fag). Coincidentally showed up right after the vandalism shit too.

If not, carry on!

There is a large difference between racial stereotyping and actual racist comments. The former involves humor whereas the latter involves hate.

The former is also passive-aggressive racism.

There is no difference between racial stereotyping and racist comments; the former causes the latter.

I also don't see any reason why a malicious racist statement is worse than a "funny" one. They're both racist.

In my opinion, even "humorous" comments involving race should be ban-worthy. They attract even more racism.

At any rate the policy is in place and listed officially and all that so it doesn't need to be argued more at this point.

There is always a gray area as to how it should be handled, but report the more egregious offenses to me or a mod and we'll try to take care of it. That's all.
