Your result for The Fan Fiction Personality Test...

The Mindgamer

Everything is possible, nothing is ever really over.

Fanfiction is a creative outlet for you. You don't intentionally write it, it just happens. You find inspiration in several fandoms, but are not obsessed with only one.

You like to explore "what if" situations. What if this character had never made this very choice? What if this event had taken place sooner, never, elsewhere? What if these people had never met?

You are likely to write Alternative Universes, fan seasons or sequels and just follow your (sometimes pretty strange) plot bunnies.

I'd probably do a mixture of a few. I'd ask them what the problem was, then probably edit the post to get rid of them, but think they need to just accept that "nazi" is a commonly used word that doesn't cause offense just by showing up. Edit: Actually, I realized that what I did the second time would probably depend on what their answer was to the question.

That makes sense to me ^^

Personally I have some issue with the expression (it's milder than "it offends" me, but I think it's still problematic?) because it trivialises the term "nazi", especially since it's usually used with a sort of quixotic pride "haha! I'm such a canon nazi!"
But yeah, I understand for a lot of people it's just a commonly used word, but it makes me wince when I see it anyway.

Yeah, for me it's not that I don't understand why the word would bother people, just that I think the horse is out of the barn on that one.

I understand that attitude - especially since I have it for other kind of words/expressions. There's some YMMV in the way this one (and a few others) make me flinch more.
