On what freaking planet? Nobody is opposing white people, people are opposing HATEFUL people of ALL COLORS. The vast majority of white people are not racist and do not feel attacked when people oppose RACIST white people, if you do then you really need to examine why you feel attacked.

If you are racist of support racist ideology just admit it, but don't try to change things to make yourself feel better for defending RACIST HATEFUL people.

In this game (and any game really, games just aren't the place to talk about these things) there is zero reason to be using the N word, this isn't somewhere where we can have a discussion about the word and this isn't a place where there is a group or community of black people hanging together and using their version of the word and no, playing a black character does not unlock that ability for you, that defeats the whole reason some black people having chosen to use their version of the word (Which I still despise and would rather they didn't, but I'm just one person, so what can I do).

Roleplaying a racist? You sure that is all it was, if you want to roleplay as something "evil" in a game and you can't come up with something better than a racist then you suck at roleplaying and you should stop, it takes no effort or skill to roleplay as a racist because being racist you requires lack intelligence in the first place.

If there were no legal or mental consequences to killing the racist? Yes, I would stab them.

Yes there is a wide range of people in the world, which is exactly one of the reason that being racist is idiotic. And yes there is a wide range of racist people, but what is your point? Being racists means illogically thinking someone is somehow worse simply they have a different skin color.
Thinking black people are better able to handle/work in the hot sun because of their skin color isn't racist because it's logical and true, forcing them to work in the hot sun without any pay because they are black on the other hand IS.

Yeah let's be open minded to hateful and ignorant people, that makes a lot of sense, people like this don't deserve a place in society and they do not deserve a place in our games either.
You don't like black people, but don't do or say anything against them? Keep things to yourself and I will avoid you like the plaque and we can both go on.

Don't try to minimize things just to excuse your behavior, nobody is killing these people  "because they don't like them" they are killing them because they are being hateful and ignorant and people would rather play with people that are not like that.

Yes this is in general an American problem, that doesn't really matter though. If you don't think there is any racism where you are then you need to get out of your bubble more, racism exists everywhere, the only difference is that most other that are not the USA it's not as blatant and obvious as it is there, racism in Europe is subtle and not as aggressive as in the US.

There aren't many ways to use the word, either it's offensive or it's descriptive that is it, either you are meaning to hurt someone by using the word or you are describing a story about someone using the word, the black youth's version of the word is not the same so it doesn't fall under this.

I think the only times the word should be allowed to be said is if you are describing someone else saying it, say the news talking about a racist going off on a black guy, I feel that going with the term "N-word" makes it less shocking and seem not bad even though everyone knows what was really said. You need to get it all across, people should feel  uncomfortable we should feel a little bit how the person being attacked felt when yet another story of a racist person pops up and using the actual word in the story I believe does that, using a washed version of the word let's some people keep going without having to think about it. But in a game there should never be a reason to use the word, if you are playing with your friend and want to tell them about the racist person that just attacked you in real life or the latest story about some racist dumb person, the game is not a correct way to communicate that, go on discord, go to whatsapp, go text, call them. It does seem like you are trying to excuse the use of the word, even if you say you aren't.

If people are killing simply because someone said N, which is a common way for babies to answer negative to a question, then that is dumb, but I highly doubt anyone is doing anything like that, so that excuse doesn't fly. What does it matter if someone is being racist or a troll? Most people don't want to play with either of those people and if you are trolling using racially offensive language then even more what does it matter if it's actual racism or troll "pretend" racism?

Unless you are playing on one of the less populated servers or you have a camp of solely your friends, there is never going to be a time where it's just a "room full of black people", you don't know that because you don't know the skin of everyone you are playing with and even if everyone was black, not every black person uses the word or appreciates other black people using the word, it is mostly a young people thing. Be a black person and go say that word in front of a old black lady and tell me she doesn't chew you out or try to slap some manners into you.

Again as I said above unless you are playing ONLY with your friends, behavior like this is not acceptable. I have this American friend of Mexican heritage, we sometimes make vulgar and offensive jokes related to her Mexican heritage. Like this one time in GTA when I ended up a field where Mexican workers were working on a field and I tell her, hey! I found your people and she drives to me and sees what I was talking about and we both have a laugh. Offensive jokes like this with your friends are only funny if everyone is involved and everyone is okay with the humor, when there are strangers involved they are not.

Nobody is talking about being offended by everything (weird isn't it how every apologist always changes the story to make their defense look better), everyone here is talking about one specific word or behavior. We shouldn't have to distinguish between intent when it comes to offensive language, if the intent was meant to be humorous, you wouldn't need to tell people that. That is why people like Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock or even your friend (when the joke is told to you) can make a joke using a racially offensive joke or on the topic of race without having to tell you it's a joke before telling you it.

It's great that you can get over being called things, so can I. That doesn't take away the fact that it's still an offensive word meant to hurt people.
We can still stop listening and get on with it. Some games give us the ability to ignore players and no longer see their text and even report them, this game gives us the ability to kill those players which stops them from playing with us, whats so wrong about that.

You can already do this, just run your own server and modify the things you want. Having a separate server for creative might fracture the already small population. Some people might play nothing but creative just so they can build nice looking tows and so on. Once the game drops on Steam and the population increases drastically (if it does) then maybe we could look into this, but as it stands this could hurt more than help.
