Dear Mods...

What is the theory behind the word r a p e being reduced to **bleep** like its a smutty unacceptable word that must not be spoken here on Community Spirit?

R a p e is a serious and all too common occurence in our society and already is kept hidden by too many victims who feel the stigma of shame that society in general has attached to it.

It should be, NEEDS to be, freely discussed without any connotations of it being a dirty word.

By bleeping it out you are contributing to the stigma.

If you have a social conscience at all you will fix this immediately.

I'm glad that you are satified Lurker ....but shouldn't the mods satisfy all the board ON  this board rather than just sending a message to one poster ?

The mods are not allowed to interact on the boards.

So if you want a question answered by a mod, you have to contact them by PM, which it appears, Pepe has done.

why didn't you post that earlier  ?

My deepest apologies, there is no wind here atm, so I didn't get your smoke signal summonsing me and the carrier pidgeon didn't knock.

LOL I was meaning why didn't you post that to the OP earlier re the opening post which Reads 

Dear Mods 

you could have done it in #30 where you gave this advice 

The "New Community Experience" Board is not part of the Trading Boards.

[azureline**]

perhaps she didn't think of it then?

[izabsmiling]

that's nice of you to help out Azureline 

[azureline**]

not helping out so much as suggesting it may be the reason? I often don't think of everything I should say at the same time.

could that be because the majority are female?

I'd say more to the point, the majority understand social boundaries.

I think it's a fair assumption.

No. You sailed past the point of no return this time. I get you can't admit it. If you did your balls would drop off.
