The following was pulled from Wikipedia:
A
Abbie / Abe / Abie
(North America) a Jewish male. From the proper name Abraham. Originated before the 1950s.[1]
ABCD
(Subcontinentals in U.S.) "American-Born Confused Desi", used to imply that an American-born South Asian (Usually Pakistani and Indian, but increasingly Bangladeshi) is confused about their cultural identity. ABCD is the most common version of the phrase, but there are variations of it that extend all the way to the letter 'z' in at least two different versions: "American Born Confused Desi, Emigrated From Gujarat, House in Jersey, Kids Learning Medicine, Now Owning Property, Quite Reasonable Salary, Two Uncles Visiting, White Xenophobia Yet Zestful" and "American Born Confused Desi, Emigrated From Gujarat, Housed In Jersey, Keeping Lotsa Motels, Named Omkarnath Patel, Quickly Reached Success Through Underhanded Vicious Ways, Xenophobic Yet Zestful"[2]
Abo / Abbo
(AUS) Australian Aboriginal person. Originally, this was simply an informal term for "Aborigine", and was in fact used by Aboriginal people themselves until it started to be considered offensive in 1950s. In remoter areas, Aboriginal people still often refer to themselves (quite neutrally) as "Blackfellas" (and whites as "Whitefellas"). Although "Abo" is still considered quite offensive by many, the pejorative "boong" is now more commonly used when the intent is to deliberately offend, as that word's status as an insult is unequivocal.[3]
Albino
(U.S.) A term for whites, also a derogatory term for light skinned blacks used by darker skinned blacks.[4] (see colorism)
Alligator bait
(U.S.) also "Gator Bait." A black person, especially a black child. More commonly used in states where alligators are found — particularly Florida. First used in the early 1900s, although some hypothesize the term originated in the late 1800s.[5]
Alter kacker / alter kocker (Yiddish) / alter kucker / A.K.
(North America) a disparaging term for elderly Jewish people. The term is of Yiddish origin (literally meaning old shitter). First used in the early 1900s.[6]
Anglo-pilferer
An Anglo-Celtic Australian, possibly of convict lineage. Based on the belief that all Anglo-Australians are descended from convicts. Particularly offensive.[7]
Ann
(North America) A white woman to a black person — or a black woman who acts too much like a white one. While Miss Ann, also just plain Ann, is a derisive reference to the white woman, by extension it is applied to any black woman who puts on airs and tries to act like Miss Ann.[8]
Ape
(U.S.) a black person.[9]
Apple
(North America) An American Indian (Native American) who is "red on the outside, white on the inside." Used primarily by other American Indians to indicate someone who has lost touch with their cultural identity. First used in the 1980s.[10]
Argie
(UK) a native of Argentina (also Argie-bargie : any argument, disagreement, or (typically) sporting event involving Argentina or Argentinians), used by the British press during the Falklands War. Coined by Britain's The Sun newspaper in 1982.[11]
Aunt Jemima / Aunt Jane / Aunt Mary / Aunt Sally / Aunt Thomasina
(U.S.) a black woman who "kisses up" to whites, a "sellout", female counterpart of Uncle Tom.[12]

B
Beaner
(U.S.) term widely regarded as derogatory, that refers to people of Mexican descent or, more broadly, mestizos.[13][14][15] The term originates from the prevalence of frijoles pintos and other beans in Mexican food.[15][16]
Boche; bosche; bosch
(France; U.S.; UK) a German [shortened from French alboche, a combination of French caboche (head) and allemand (German)].[17]

(North America) a person of east-central European descent. Originally referred to those of Bohemian (now Czech Republic) descent. Was commonly used toward Ukrainian immigrants during the early 20th century.[20]
Boong / bong / bung
(Aus) Australian aboriginal.[21] Related to the Australian English slang word bung, meaning "dead", "infected", "dysfunctional". From bung, to go bung "Originally to die, then to break down, go bankrupt, cease to function [Ab. bong dead]".[22] Highly offensive. [First used in 1847 by JD Lang, Cooksland, 430][23]
Boonga / boong / bunga / boonie
(New Zealand) a Pacific Islander [alteration of boong].[24]
Bounty Bar
A Bounty chocolate bar, being composed of coconut coated with chocolate, is white on the inside and brown on the outside. As with wigger, this is a both a subcultural and ethnic slur. The immediate target is denigrated for having the cultural values of a different ethnic group, with the implication that that ethnic group is bad or inferior. Coconut and Oreo are used in the same way.[25]
Brownie
(U.S.) a. a person of mixed white and black ancestry; a mulatto. b. (U.S.) a young, brown-skinned person 1940s-1950s[26]

a race-specific term used to describe Chinese immigrants in the United States, Canada and Australia during the 19th century. The term was widely used in the popular mass media of the day. The term is derived from their status as subjects of the Son of Heaven, the Chinese Emperor.
Charlie
(North America) a mildly derogatory term used by African Americans, mainly in the 1960s and 1970s, to refer to a white person (from James Baldwin's novel, Blues For Mr. Charlie). The same word was also a generally non-pejorative slang term used by American troops during the Vietnam War as a short-hand term for North Vietnamese guerrillas: it was shortened from "Victor Charlie", the NATO phonetic alphabet for Viet Cong, or VC.[29]
Chee-chee
a Eurasian half-caste [probably from Hindi chi-chi fie!, literally, dirt][30]
Chinaman
(Worldwide English) Chinese person, used in old American west when discrimination against Chinese was common.[31] The term generates controversy when still used in geographic places associated or resembling Chinese. Though it is still heard in the lyrics to the 70s song "Kung Fu Fighting" and Fast and furious movie song "Tokyo Drift" by teriyaki boys, it tends to generate objections in modern times, especially in the US where Asian-American is the preferred nomenclature. (Note that in cricket, the term "chinaman" is used in a non-ethnic sense to refer to a left-handed bowler who uses a wrist spin action.)
Cheese-eating surrender monkey
(UK, US, Canada) A Frenchman, from the perceived proclivity of the French to surrender in military confrontations and the huge variety of French cheeses available[32].

Coon
(U.S. and U.K) a black person. Possibly from Portuguese barraco, a building constructed to hold slaves for sale (1837).[43][44] Popularized by the song "Zip Coon", played at Minstrel shows in the 1830s.

Dhoti
In Nepal the word Dhoti is often used as an ethnic slur against the Madhesi community of Nepal and Indians by the majority population of Nepal. This may be because of the popularity of dhotis in the terai region and the bordering Indian states.[52]
Dink
an Asian, esp. a Vietnamese. Also used as a disparaging term for a North Vietnamese soldier or guerrilla in the Vietnam War. Origin: 1965–70, Americanism; cf. Australian slang dink Chinese person; perh. back formation from dinky, reinforced by rhyme with Chink[53]

E
Eight ball
A Negro; slang, usually used disparagingly[58]
Eskimo
A native North American from the northernmost inhabitable areas. Key to this term's status as an ethnic slur is the original source of the word, variously attributed to a variation upon the Ojibwa word for "snowshoe" or the Cree "eaters of raw meat". The argument is considered concluded by both sides, with the result invariably supporting an author/academic/native individual's own social view. The strongest argument against the word being non-pejoritive is that this would make little linguistic sence, given that all natives in North America used snowshoes, and as such would not then use a variation upon their word for showshoe to describe any one group. Given this complication, the status of Eskimo as a pejorative term varies by location:
In Canada and Greenland, "Eskimo" is considered offensive, partly because of the debated perception that the word meant "eater of raw meat" in the Cree native language; see origin of the name Eskimo. In Canada, "Inuinnaq" is the preferred term in the central Arctic and "Inuit" in the eastern Arctic, though "Inuit" is acceptable throughout Arctic Canada. In Greenland, the preferred terms are "Kallaalit" in their own language and "Greenlanders" in English. Similar to Nigger the term was likely not originally racist, however it is now considered unacceptable in those regions.[59]
In Alaska, "Eskimo" is not considered offensive, and is widely used even among the state's Arctic peoples. Although the term "Inuit" describes all the indigenous Arctic peoples of Canada and Greenland, this is not the case in Alaska or Siberia. The Arctic peoples of Alaska are divided linguistically and ethnically into Inuit and Yupik. The term "Inuit" is not generally accepted by either group in Alaska, even the state's Inuit themselves (who prefer "Inupiat"), and "Eskimo" is the accepted collective term when referring to both Inuit and Yupik.

Frog
(Canada UK US) A French person. Prior to 1800's, referred to the Dutch (as they were stereotyped as being marsh-dwellers). When France became Britain's main enemy, replacing the Dutch, the epithet transferred to them,[65][66] due to the French recipe for eating frogs' legs (see comparable French term Rosbif). Also used in Canada to refer to both the French and French Canadians, and occasionally incorrectly as more broadly to people from Quebec who are not, in fact, necessarily French or French speaking.[67]

Gook
a derogatory term for Asians, used especially for enemy soldiers.[72] Its use as an ethnic slur has been traced to U.S. Marines serving in the Philippines in the early 20th century.[72][73] The earliest recorded example is dated 1920.[74] It gained widespread notice as a result of the Korean and Vietnam wars.[72]

Greaseball, Greaser
(US) a person of Italian descent. Or rarely, a person of Hispanic descent.[76]
Gringo
(Hispanic Americans, Brazil) a white person or foreigner. The term lends itself to derogatory or paternalistic connotations, but depending on the context it may not be meant pejoratively. Gringo may be derived from several origins. One is the phrase "Green, go" from the color of US army uniform when the Mexican-American war invasion. Yet it could be derived from the singing by US troops of the song of celtic origin, "Green Grow the Lillies". In Brazil, "gringo" is applied to any foreigners (including Mexicans or Argentines) and has no negative connotations by itself.[77]
Groid

The term passed into modern usage through the British, who used the term to refer to the mixed groupings of people displaced by Shaka when he organized the Zulu nation. These groups (consisting of Mzilikaze, Matiwani, Mantatisi, Flingoe, Hottentot, and Xhosa peoples inhabited the region from the Cape of Good Hope to the Limpopo river) fought the British in the Kaffir Wars 1846–1848, 1850–1852, and 1877–1878.)[102][103] See also Kaffir (Historical usage in southern Africa)

(AUS/NZ/SA) a British (usually English) immigrant. Some claim it derives from "Prisoner of Mother England", but it probably derives from pomegranate, rhyming slang for "immigrant,[133] jimmygrant, pommygrant". It is often used irreverently and is usually considered offensive. Many such migrants to Australia call themselves "ten pound poms", because they paid ten pounds for their passage to Australia between 1945 and 1972 under an assisted migration scheme. Often combined with an adjective, particularly whingeing pom, a reference to migrants who complained about their adopted country. Often used in a sporting (especially cricket and rugby) context, with liberal use of 'pom' and 'Aussie' being used by the media; the term is often seen as unoffensive in this context, and instead as light-hearted banter by those who use it, but still possibly as offensive by those whom it is directed at[citation needed].

At this time, there are no word filters in place. I'm hoping people will be mature enough in their use of language so that we won't need to put any in.

Filtering is generally unnecessary because people can be trusted not to go overboard with the crazy gratuitous slurs. Provided you can keep it under control and not act like you have tourettes, we won't need to filter things in the future. If large numbers of people suddenly start mouthing off with whatever profanity comes into their minds, we may have to reconsider. If the only person who suddenly starts mouthing off with random profanity is you, then we won't need to filter. We'll just delete you, since you've had your fill of warnings already.

So yes, you can use profanity. But we hope you are mature enough not to.

... or what Reppy said.
