I am offended at people using it even on this board.

Yes, I am a rational person and words shouldn't affect me, but the fact of the matter is that there are deep seeded emotions behind the usage.

Whats so wrong with saying n-word when referring to it?

Because to matter how much lipstick you slap on a pig, it's still a pig.

(Apologies to my sus brethren.)((Oh, and just be clear, we're talking about the word and the word only.))

There's absolutely nothing wrong with saying 'n-word' instead of 'nigger'. You can call it anything you feel comfortable with. If you take offense to others saying 'nigger' then I apologize, that was not the intent. Do you also get offended when you hear some rapper saying 'nigger' in a song or interview?
