I don't think anyone is making the case that things don't get heated or that curse word or slurs are so abhorrent that they should be eliminated. I think most mods are absolutely fine with "colorful" language and use it regularly. I don't think anyon's being prudish here. I think they're just trying to find a way so the initial thread title doesn't aim to provoke or name call.
This exactly. No one is saying that phrases like 'All Christians are bungholes' or 'All atheists are immoral dimwits' are verboten. Just keep them out of the thread titles.
This isn't asking a lot.
