Good morning...
...seems a PM is no longer necessary and I will lend clarity to the matter onto these pages.

I understand your decision to not use certain words. Next time, you do not need to actually say it, since your context (might not be your original intention or desire) may be highly misconstrued and highly inappropriate to the reader.

 No tutorial needed. First and foremost, this was playful banter among regulars like yourself, wuwhere ect. No more, no less. And a carryover from recent comments made previously in the same light.

Again, no matter what, you could (and in the future) have simply used another word when it came up (as you could have easily used the word "boss" when I originally posted it).

This is true. And yet, misses the point. Yes, I could have also used one of your other words to change direction. I was being playful about sitting it out until other players changed direction. That said, we (regular participants in this game) don't always pay attention to each other's comments and I can see how my remarks got your attention.
 
Back to verbal gaming...

This is not a tutorial, but informing you I can see is most definitely obviously needed, since you still do not understand the gravity of your words, and attempting to completely undermine what you have said by stating various statements that try to completely dismiss what I am saying. 
 
It does not matter at all if it was playful banter between regulars.  The reader (and myself) may feel that what you said is categorically in the least tasteless and what you said in the least has a lack of tact.  
 
Are you stating saying the "N-word" is playful banter?  Because if you think that should be taken lightly, you are immensely mistaken. You think it was playful banter, and I am telling you to next time, watch what you say, watch your tongue, watch what you post. The reader who does not know exactly what you are talking about can see what you wrote as highly misconstrued and highly inappropriate.  Even if they do (know what you are talking about), they may think that you have a complete lack of taste by actually saying it, and additionally believe that you have a complete lack of the gravity regarding what you said because of the content of your previous posts.
 
I, frankly, am appalled by the dismissal of what I have said to you.

In my view.::.
 
You can either be appalled and remain that way or strive toward getting greater understanding from me without attacking me. Our shared remarks, public or private, should be tempered with grace not salt. I still think we should finish up in PM - clarity would come a whole lot quicker.
 
Shame you're of the opinion I do not knoweth what I speaketh regarding the 'B-word' & 'N-word.' That I do not take them lightly shows your lack of understanding and awareness. Granted, when we play this game, we're not always scrolling up and reading previous entries, side remarks or no. But you've been playing this Music Game for a good year now and I'm surprised this is seemingly the very first time you've paid attention to my remarks like this. "This" meaning taking a stance against the overused and inappropriate terrible two in my book.
 
For me to playfully excuse myself on sitting out does not take away the merit of my position. Merely my way of drawing periodical attention to them. But I will also add I do not need coaching up on what to say or not to say when I address the matter.
 
Honestly, I think your replies show good intent but maybe a bit too quick for good understanding.

I can be whatever I choose to be, and after your last post, I am further appalled.  Your posts and replies do not convey a greater (overall positive) understanding you have attempted to express.  I would appreciate it if you do not accuse me of being “salty”.  This is behavior that will never be tolerated.

Absolutely zero shame on me, sir or madam.   As a result, “knoweth”, and “speaketh” is irrelevant to the discussion.  What is relevant is that you do not take them lightly.  Stating that I “show lack of understanding and awareness” is atrocious.  Stating “…scrolling up and reading previous entries, side remarks or no” and my time posting on a Music Game thread “for a good year now” are irrelevant to the discussion.  Stating that you are “surprised this is seemingly the very first time I’ve paid attention to your remarks”, is completely beside the point of the discussion.  When you stated in previous posts that all of this was “playful banter”, then omitting and ignoring my concern that it was not playful banter when you stated “N-word”, lucidly disgusted me.  If you cannot understand how that can make a person feel (by contending irrelevant statements), then I am simply without words.  I am in agreement with you that those are overused and inappropriate words.
 
I usually would not respond to those who do not keep the replies of my posts on track/point, however, one of the reasons why I am responding to you is because you are a regular poster.  If you were not a regular poster and were just trolling (which I sincerely hope you are not [rhetorical]), I would not give you a breath of my life by responding to your posts [also rhetorical].

I agree that you can playfully excuse yourself; there is no issue with that.  It is with regards to what you stated, and subsequent non-acknowledgement of what I stated that is disgraceful to me.  As for “not needing coaching up on what to say or not to say when you address the matter”, I will not be quiet or mute when I feel strongly about the content and/or context of any person’s posts.

I do not need an entire day or night to formulate a response and post to what I read on a screen.
 
You are free to say whatever you like, and I am free to explain to you how I do not appreciate what you are saying.
 
 
I will respond to your private message.
