I think you guys need to clarify the rules. Racial slurs not being allowed isn't even mentioned anywhere there. Someone could say nigger, but use it in a way that it's not a targeted attack.
Trolling: Triggering threads ('baits') intended to create reactions or flame wars are not allowed.
The vast majority of ways racial slurs are used would qualify as racebaiting and trolling, which are explicitly against the rules. So the vast majority of the time they are deemed to be breaking the rules, which does lead to action being taken. There are obviously some exceptions like using a racial slur while quoting someone else, or discussing it in a historical context. The vast majority of the time it's just racebaiting though, report this if you see it.
I would honestly be enraged if I got banned for a racial slur tbh
Then don't go around using racial slurs...
