Pretty rich coming from the guys who overly moderate players' private Minecraft servers up to and including banning players for saying a no-no word...
If they're banning people who use slurs, I'm all for it and beehaw may not be the place for you.
if you're not aware of that whole thing, the issue is not that mojang is banning people for using slurs, it's that their list of bad words with way too broad, and you might get banned for saying "night" or I think even "zzzzz" or whatever things you might say as you're going to sleep.
banning for slur, yes very good banning for a word that's in a naughty list that's not bad or even pretty common, that's silly
