Please clarify why this is acceptable while I got points?

Hi there,

I seek to clarify why I got 6 points for the following offending posts whereas someone I reported got left off the hook. We both used the exact same word and in a very similiar manner.

For further clarification, your earlier warning was due to that comment made on a sensitive topic. The combination makes it a concerning comment, and thus the warning.

By contrast, just making a swing at the weather is hardly offensive in nature.
This is why we've differentiated this here:-

Ultimately, words are just... words.
The intention of use and the topic at hand can change the dynamics of a harmless word to be perceived as a harmful word.

Thank you.

Thanks for replying.

I understand where you're coming from but I wasn't taking a swing at the sensitive topic, whatever it may have been. In this context the word assumes the meaning of " what ", as it does in local Singaporean slang, which I'm sure you're aware of and which carries no harmful or malicious intent.

It may feel harmless to you but it can be offensive to other concerned members. You could have said "why is there half day?" instead of using a vulgarity with your question like you did and give others the perception that they do not deserve the half day. Please be more mindful of your language when posting on our forums.

Thank you and have a good day.
