That said, just because you're not directly attacking a user doesn't mean you're in the clear. "Discomforting others" has been on the books since March 2011, and we will take into account reasonable reports from someone who feels indirectly attacked by use of slurs in a perjorative manner.
In general, regardless of the rules, I continue to encourage everyone to think if it's 100% necessary that you tell I3uster he's a retard.
