Nature of violation: Usage of the transphobic slur "troon". This has been previously ruled on here and should be no contention that this is intended as a transphobic slur.

This has already been discussed with some of your members, but I will also state it here:

The forum moderation team doesn't recognize "troons" as a slur, since no valid source establishes it as such and is hardly known by pretty much anyone (apart from your own community). An alternative meaning has been given from the "other side", so without any official evidence, there is no reason to prefer one term from the other.

Regarding the Game Report you use as a reference, that's not a recognition of the word you mention as a slur. Action was taken at that time due to the whole phrase "x - sucks".

Thanks Alex, it's not easy to strike a good balance here, but I think the word filter is a great solution.
