Can We Say Colored in The Pub?

Obviously nigger, jiggaboo, spear chucker, porch monkey and the like are out. Colored and black are fair game though right? And what's the status of moon cricket and schwoogie?
If this should be in WA&F go ahead and move it.

Jungle bunny better be allowed. I mean, it's got fuckin bunny in it. If that's not Pub material I don't know what is.

It really doesn't matter what words you use....words are just words.
However if the intent seems to obviously be racism, then it is against Pub rules - regardless of what specific wording you use.

I'm not going to answer that, otherwise I'll wake up tomorrow to find a bunch of threads with
"hey man! You're a really great nigger eh! "
written all through them. 
Suffice it to say that if the intent of a post appears to be racism, it's against Pub rules and will be dealt with. Words are words.

No. I think it was, for the most part, a sincere question.
I've said it in every post of mine in this thread already: words are just words. If it came down to banning words we wouldn't need any of us moderators at all - Ythan could just write up a computerized script that would block any "bad" words that are on some holy list of bad words 
No...it's not the words that matter...it's the intent.

How is that a loophole? If the words are used entirely with a humorous intent and no actual racism is involved....where's the problem?
What if I used words that I make up on the spot, with racist intent? Am I still being a racist? (I happen to think so, yes) If I'm being a racist without using any of the regualr "racist words"...then it can't be the words themselves that are the problem, can it?
I'll say it again, in bold: it's the intent that matters, not the words.
As with everything on this forum, it comes down to the discretion of the moderator who reads the post. The world isn't black and white (no pun intended...) and we can't simply say "ok these words are bad and you can't use them no matter what the context". If we did, people would just use different words

Stop speaking for other people. If a black guy reads this it's his choice whether he gets offended or not - not yours.

trendal got it on this one. Words are just words. A person that's not big enough to not be offended by words needs to grow up.
Wiccan_Seeker - I'm offended that you would even suggest I started this thread for the sole purpose of saying the words. If I want to say them, I'll say them. I don't need a special thread for it. Now, kindly stop trolling. It is fairly obvious your intent is to turn this thread into something it's not so it will be dumped. For shame.

You do too much drugs. Always looking for meaning behind things. I was simply asking if colored was allowed. That's it. No scandalous sub-plot here.
Now I come to find nigger, kike, shine monkey and all the other funny ones are allowed as well. Worked out better than expected.

Remember, once again, that it is all about context...and how that context is taken is at the discretion of whatever mod reads your post.
I said I don't care about mere words...but if you are going to use that as an excuse to drop the n-bomb all over the Pub you should re-think your decision 
I'm going to lock this thread now, as the original issue (the question of use of words) has been answered.
