I don’t visit the Game Room very often but could you clarify that this doesn’t affect cheap shots directed at fandoms.
i.e. calling Louisiana State “corndogs”
or in baseball, the Atlanta Cowards or Boston Red Sux etc.
or for television, i.e. “Hell no, I randomly answer poll questions to mess with you Trekkie nerds!”
(For those who live under a rock, “Trekkie” isn’t hate speech.)
