you sure about that, because in all the movies the British describers refer fagots as cigarets. i wish you guys would actually use the words that fit the definitions instead of making them up as you go. That would make understanding much easier.

Hi Tom.

As I saidI am fully aware of your intention here which is okay, it's just I was surprised sinse to me names like "curry eater" or something similar have always been directed in a racist way towards indians, but as with a lot of things it's about context. Yesterday for example my dad and I had faggots for lunch, with mint sauce and pees, which probably soundds very crazy to you. yet, even though to me calling someone "A stupid faggot" sounds like calling someone "a stupid sausage", I'd still see that as insulting for the intention behind it even if it is not a word I can particularly see the use of.

This is why the audiogames.net faq says "insulting behaviour" rather than trying to ban specific words, and why moderating is not an easy business and requires judgement.

Btw, Faggots in this case are large, spicy meetballs, fairly common in the north of England, though really you have to get a good butcher who can prepare them properly. There are a couple of mass produced attempts but they just aren't half as nice.

Beware the grue!
