Do you doubt me? From your tone, and from the downvotes I have recieved, I guess so. However, I saw luckylion’s post in a state of being banned. I vouched for it, and I saw it be unbanned. Furthermore the moderators have described the mechanism, and listed the words as they were at one point:

- nkurz 4y agoSorry, I was slow to see this response. Yes, I continue to doubt that a _user_ will be banned for using one of these words. I'm happy to believe that these words will cause that particular _comment_ to be killed, just that they won't cause a permanent ban for the user. I think the issue is that we have a difference in terminology. I would never describe vouching as making a comment "unbanned". I think my terminology is correct, but I'll try to be sure before I continue to use it. I appreciate the link to the list of words.
- teddyh 4y agoOh, yes, I meant that the comment will be banned, not the entire user. Sorry for being unclear.
