Slit-eyed is offensive, to me anyway

We don't sanitize "offensivie", Wegason. You WILL eventually be offended at something here if you read every thread, and virtually every thread could be offensive to somebody. That's life.
In context, neither reads as flaming or other rulebreaking, so no action taken.

Okay, thats fine, i just was not sure the policy on things like that.
Although calling a Japanese person slit eyed could be considered flaming, but thats my opinion

Read the whole thread, not just the single phrase. Sino (who based on his posts is apparently Asian, probably Chinese) was objecting to be identified as Japanese, particularly one non-NS-member. It is therefore not flaming. Had he directed the comment at an NS member and not a dead Emporer, my ruling would have been different.

Ok, thanks a lot for the response.
