I see you missed the point entirely.
Ok, I see what you mean.
So again, as I said on my very first post here, this isnt about someone being offended. I certainly am not. But if staff decided they wanted to make a rule banning terms that are objectively and overly vulgar, such as cunt, fuck, nigger, as well as blatant bigrotry, from thread titles, I would support it. Because I think it would just make for a better quality environment, for the same reason the prime directive rule does. Not because of being offended. Some people may personally hate the word "poop" but it isn't an objectively vulgar term to the extent that a word like "cunt" is.
Anyway, as I also said in my first post, I don't care much either way.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
