Well yeah, you are right. I have apologized for the racial slurs though, like you saw in the unban appeal.
Yesterday when I called that guy a jew wasn't because I am anti-semitic, and not because I am a neo-nazi that has a portrait of Hitler in my room, a small swastika and a stolen sign from Auschwitz. I just called him a jew, in my country lots of people use the word "jew" not as a tool of anti-semitic hatred, but just to describe a person which is very greedy.
Yes, I know that there are two cultures in conflict, in my place it might be pretty normal but in USA it might not, but that was just a single "jew" word, nothing more, I wasn't somebody called "Adolf Shitler" who tossed everyone in the hot loop because I felt like this.
I mean okay, I made the mistake, I am fucking dumb I shouldn't use the word "jew" but you know yourself for how long I wasn't playing on the server so I wasn't really in track with the rule changes, I have even read the rules the first day I was unbanned to see if something changed, and I couldn't find anything about anti-semitism.
My grandfather was helping jews during WW2, and I am proud because of that, because jewish people are humans too and they didn't deserve to get genocided. It's just that the word "jew" in my country has a second meaning, just like for example in England the word "faggot" has three meanings, one of them being an offensive and discriminating slur for a homosexual man.
It's just really a shame for me that I got permabanned for a single word.
