Fair enough. I won't use the W-word or any synonyms.

Her asking not to be called a whore is akin to someone asking you not to talk about a certain subject, or having their personal information posted on the site.
Are you out of your mind? The W-word is a label; personal information is exactly that: personal information. It's just as "akin" as an amoebe to a steel bar.

No need for that. There are some fine moderators around here, that are more than willing to do that for her.

If calling her a whore is what is most important to you, have at it. However, as much as you have the right to free speech, she has the right to not come back to the board. As members out here, we need to consider what kind of message board we want to have.
Good observation.

Whether Raven (or other girls) hang out here makes no difference to me.
Really?
