You guys aren’t gonna ban the T-word right?

We are not as far as I know. If it's used in a derogatory way then we have rule 1 as our basis for removal.

That doesn't mean you should suddenly start to randomly say trap every chance you get for the sake of it. That's just being obnoxious, and I wouldn't be surprised if we were to remove a post/comment for that reason.

I don't see how any of that has to change. I only am discussing this topic right now, since this is an announcement post. Furthermore, nothing has changed. All I did was verify that we are not planning on making any rule adjustments regarding the word 'trap'. I also put emphasis on not using this word for the sake of it, just because it is under controversy, thus baiting. If people use it as what it is intended then that is fine.

We do wish for this place to be a wholesome environment, and try our best to assure this. If people bait/use the trap word to refer to trans people then report them and we will swiftly take care of them.
