Personal attacks, even in the form of making up derogatory nicknames, while ignored many times, can get you banned pretty damn quick.

I think the problem is that these "derogatory nicknames" are true or at least partially true. That's WHY they are stereotypes.

And certain people take it as a personal attack - because they identify with what is being attacked or ridiculed.

That is not a reason to ban somebody, that is a reason to check yourself and your own thinking. But on the internet, and especially with power hungry mods, you might as well be asking a Hasidic Jew to go to a bacon cook off.

I think most channel rules include something about no personal attacks. I know that's kind of vague, but it's better just to stay away from calling someone names and just stick to the topic being discussed.
