Thank you for the time you have taken to visit our forums. I can definitely see why these terms could be considered racist. Being a Black male I do understand where you are coming from. The terminology of these words do not have any racial meanings behind them. They are simply list that allow emails to go though or not to go though. We will possibly look into changing this in the future so that we can get terms that are easier to understand.
Again I do thank you for bringing this up as there are people that could see these terms as racist. As always Sonic is always making sure that their company is reflected positively and that we understand and support our community.
If you wish to talk about this more feel free to PM me or reply here.
