The use of "racial slurs"
So, recently was banned for using the racial slur, "Nigga". (I was banned for this twice recently.) Personally, I do not think that, and excuse me if I am not allowed to use this word, nigger and nigga are the same. They are two completely different words with opposite connotations to them. "Nigga" is a friendlier term, and much less offending. The other on the other hand, the word "Nigger" is a much more offending and derogatory term.

To put this in easier terms, here are a few examples.

These are generally accepted by most people:
"Whats up nigga?"
"Nigga you just..." (You can really add anything after this)
"Nigga are you dumb?" (This is a much more friendlier connotation.)

These however are not okay, and sadly I see a lot.
"You're a nigger"
"You fucking nigger..."

Having read those, the first examples seem much more cheery (lol) and less derogatory then the latter. What are your thoughts on GM's taking action and banning people for the use of the word nigga/nigger?
