Giving one person a free pass (...)

terry is given the exact opposite of a "free pass." he has created at least eight accounts at this site. all of them are now hellbanned.

Getting hellbanned for behaviour is not the opposite of a free pass, exact or otherwise.

And when he creates his 9th account and proceeds to use the n-word to insult people he feels are intellectually inferior to him - that one will be hellbanned as well, and rightly so in my opinion.

The guy learned how to write compilers and operating systems, surely he is capable of learning to stop using that term - at least on this forum.

If he didn't have schizophrenia, i'd completely agree with you. As it is, i'm not sure he is capable of learning to stop using any particular terms. At least not during an episode.

This is an example of the perennial dispute that we're talking about. It's (a) not ok to begin with, and (b) endless regurgitation. It's time to stop.
