If being called a name on a message board really hurts somebody's feelings, it's probably time to re-evaluate how they view themselves

Absolutley. As an adult woman I have enough self confidence to not tolerate being called that word (waits for next responce- or several knowing you fools- for me being called a C. You suck MH!)

Is this water-slide broken? A drought perhaps? Because the "N" word has been banned here as long as I can remember, and except for the admins having fun banning words like ginger - its the only one that has been banned.

yeah - clearly, a very very slippery slope!!!!
