The 'whore' thing really comes down to a name Raven doesn't want to be called rather than anyone trying to impose censorship on the board or needing to clarify the meaning of the word.

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.

Raven is not trying to censor the board, nor is she challenging the meaning of "whore." She is simply asking not to be addressed as "whore."

In return she is willing to hang out, chat, post pics and have fun.

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.

Although I am the one who got Raven to sign up at XPT, I really don't see myself as having a dog in this fight. Whether Raven (or other girls) hang out here makes no difference to me.

What do the rest of you think?
