No it's offensive anyway you say it. It is defined as being offensive, in no way is that word acceptable to use.Quote:

Some people do not mean it in a racist form however it IS often used as a racist term so it should be filtered as you cannot tell if the user is using it in that manor and it may offend users who of which live in Pakistan. Racism is a sensitive topic in the world especially now days so the best thing to do is tred carefully around the whole subject.
It blocked ^^Quote:

The word is blocked for a good reason. Having to go around and block every single word that is used as slang for another country would just be stupid, time consuming and not needed.
If you feel that a word is not on the filter and it offends you directly, send a PM to either J1MI or ---MAD--- and they'll see about it.
Isn't it a matter of what the nation think of the word, not any other nation? If Pakistani's hate the word, then it is filtered for them.
Why do you have to be so difficult?Quote:

I personally think it is more offensive than a shortened way of typing and pronouncing a word. Sure Brit, Aussie, Yank aren't at all offensive, but the 4 letter work in question is often used to describe an entire continent and area, rather than a particular country or nation. But as I have stated, I have no problem with it unless people of the Pakistan nation dislike it, as it is not our right to question it.
But the thread should not of been closed anyway. It's just moderators, super moderators and admins being too lazy to their jobs, as per usual, by closing a thread when they can remove offensive posts in just the same amount of time "/
