    She'd just have to say that something doesn't seem right on this board and let the cops have a field day here - they'd see all the innuendoes and blatant sexual statements and then ....

    In that case, by all means I support actions against Storm. Perhaps not banning, though. If he was asked to stop, he would, I'm sure.

    Apparently we're supposed to allow unwanted sexual harassment after we've been informed of it.

    Are you kidding? First off, "disturbing" is a subjective determination. I didn't find it "disturbing", any more than I found the suggestion that you and LizK dyke out to be disturbing (although perhaps I should :soma: )

    If "disturbing" is the new criteria for editing thread titles, then I suggest we shut down the whole fucking site. Hard to believe this is coming from a published author - the first amendment is your bread and butter. :rolleyes:

    Right, but there's a huge double standard at play, then, as they've quite literally done nothing for months. I suspect we have the same old story here -- favored wordforgers receive different treatment.

    There's no double standard. TKO said she had no issue with previous "flirtation" or whatever, but this thread title crossed a line for her.

    Well, maybe the double standard is one for those over the age of consent and the other for those under the age of consent

    Can't agree here, even though changing the thread title looks questionable to me too.

    She's been hounded long enough by the creepy perverted fucks around here. I don't blame her at all for getting tired of it.

    TKO didn't make the decision you have a problem with. Bitch all you want but leave her out of it.

    Okay, I'll try to use small words.

    And I've seen packs of dogs in heat with more civility than I'm seeing in this thread.

    Part of posting in the redroom is being mature enough to handle you're name in a thread title, or be put in random jokes, or be harrassed, that's the idea behind the RR in the first place.

    How do we know TKO isn't actually a man who posts pictures of an underage girl and pretends to be her? They were talking about the deflowering of a username, not her real name.

    And another part of being in the RR is being mature enough to understand that some things do cross the line, and when it does that action must be taken and we must not get our panties in a wad when the mods/admins take action

    It's the Red Room, baby, get the fuck over it.

    This ain't no rest home, and this ain't no nursery, and this ain't yo' granmamama's Interwebs. It's where women are dames, the men are packin', and the kids run wild. The Red Room makes the homies say 'HO!', and the girlies wanna scream. It's where every moll has a .22 under her skirt, and every cat has a few scotches under his belt. It is the best of forums; It is the worst of forums. And while Chuck Norris doesn't actually fear it, he does respect it.

    It's where we tell folks to get AIDS of the ass and die, because they prefer a different sort of cheese than we.

    Get the fuck over it, you pig-fucking fucker of pigs.

    Agreed. I'm being a sissy. I've given this 30 minutes' worth of thinking and this is what I've come up with:

    If I let Storm slide, I gotta let everything slide. I set it up so that he can say anything to me, so why not everyone else?

    Tex is right. Changing the title was unnecessary. But don't blame the mod! I asked for it to be changed and neg-repped Volpone in what was clearly a joke thread!

    AdaptationNation agrees: I wonder if the board needs to be 18+, to avoid such issues in the future? :unsure:

    No, people just need to use some common sense and avoid targeting sexual jokes at minors.
