    I think the words sexist and racist should be banned from boards. Who's with me?

    Or at the very least if you want to use those words you first need to fill out an application and have it approved for your use.

    I'd prefer if the posts that caused those terms to be used were what was banned!

    I think we should ban the phrase "Fixed your post for you"

    Try Feedback. Or Sex and Sexuality if you meant "sexy" and "racy."
