I had a post removed today for using the word “spook” in reference to government agents, a common usage that I see around the site, because it is a racial slur, although ive never seen it used with that intent (not that it matters), and it only gets removed maybe 10% of the time. In order to be consistent and not offend any comrades I would propose adding it to the word filter so its removal will be uniform and not open to mod interpretation.

    the odds of anyone using that word in that context on hexbear dot net are slim-to-none. the odds of someone using it to talk about spooky skellingtons is pretty high. don’t infringe on my right to talk about spooky skellingtons!
