Hello randy,
The word "Jew" is a derogatory slang word against Jewish people.
This type of conduct will not be tolerated or condoned at Cryptsy.

Your chat ban will not be lifted


Sincerely,

The word Jew?
This earned me a 1 year ban and ill never use cryptsy again adult activities should require mods who are not "trigger happy"

Oh yea this was shortly after my 5 min ban for typing in all caps and one lowercase letter lol I really pissed some sissy off

1.
a member of the people and cultural community whose traditional religion is Judaism and who trace their origins through the ancient Hebrew people of Israel to Abraham.

bargain with someone in a miserly or petty way.

Origin
Middle English: from Old French juiu, via Latin from Greek Ioudaios, via Aramaic from Hebrew yĕhūḏī, from yĕhūḏāh ‘Judah’ (see Judah).

That's what Jew means

So there you go cryptsy allows annoying coin spammers all day but hear ye don't ye dare ask the mod if he be a Jew or ye get a year ban!

Let's help cryptsy out by teaching the mod s correct definitions and a little better oversight than jim

It all depends on the context it was used in. Did you miss the 'verb offensive bargain with someone in a miserly or petty way' part?

Nothing was said, for 5 mins prior to. The question is the context....

Calling a man a man is offensive if he/she is a crossdresser yet the word man is not a bannable offence.


Asking "are you a Jew" rings not under verb but noun and so the Jim mod was incorrect in citing it as a derogatory slang word, I can think of slang words derogatory to Jews(plural) but "Jew" itself is not.

Still 1yr ban what for, I just don't understand their motive, any Jew should be proud to be a Jew scout if you ask a Jew if he is a Jew if he is a Jew it's not taken as derogatory obviously.

Simply assuming "Jew" is derogatory slang is actually racist/anti-Semitic ....

You should have been more careful
I agree its about context but cryptsy gets to decide if something was offensive or not

Many consider 'Jew' to be offensive, but are you trying to say you just randomly decided to ask someone if he was Jewish? Why did you want to know?

Yea that's like being called Christian and I don't take offense to that. I don't think people who think it's offensive really dont have a reason why they think it's offensive they just say it...

It's not the same as being called a Christian at all, and you can't really tell other people what they do and don't  find offensive. And they have their reasons, you're just obviously not aware of them. Google it.

Cryptsy is terrible anyway so you shouldn't expect anything.
