Why is:
Paki filtered. It's a shortening of the term 'Pakistan' or 'Pakistani'. If you have to filter that, why isn't British or Brit filtered...

Because a lot of people would find it racially offensive, and i'm pretty sure it's under the government's racist/not politically correct words list.
that's really stupid.
iraqi, brit and aussie should be filtered then.
Because idiots use it as an insult, so it's best to filter it.
it the law not to say that word, and i wont say what it means^^
i think it's pretty obvious what it means..:rolleyes:Quote:

Paki is a shortened work for pakinstani or someone from pakistan, if people from pakistan can say it then we should be allowed to aswell without been called racist.
Its stupid imo.
If thats so called 'racist' - so should Brit, Aussie, Iraqi and things.
no, Paks is the shortened word which is used in eastern countries. There isn't much problems in putting 5 extra letters to a word you probably barely ever use. It's like saying the N word is just a nickname for black people.
I have removed it from the filter as its not really a swear word. If people use it in an offensive or racist way, they will be infractioned :).
