Usage of the word should stop because some people find it offensive, nothing to do with rights but simply to make the game better for everyone. If DS players can't come up with something better to call me it is a sad day for the DS community.

Yet this was unoffensive when directed at me?
Perhaps we should just call each other that from now on - that would be merry... 
Also lol, rofl, lmao or smiley faces ... when as opposing player lags into a planet during combat is rude - we should ban that to.
Am not having a go at you poop, i found your reaction to be rather fullfilling  - just pointing our the irony.
Everyone has a line that they don't like to have crossed but we need to take comments in the way they are meant, not read a whole lot more into them - temper it with some tolerance.
A bit of trash talk is part of any game - whether on the footy field or on the net - deal with it is all i can say.

Ok look guys im not here to tell u what u can or cannot say, not that i have the power to or even the care for, but lets get down to the root of all this..Padma is saying SHE is feeling hurt from this word. can we all be kind and just think of her and be nice and refrain from saying it around her or in posts that she can read and see it?
I think that is all she is asking from us.

A community isnt going to grow if we insult players personally because of thier playing style and use words like whore or thats gay etc. First the last thing we need is parents banning younger players from playing because they show up to the dinner table calling thier sister a "mirvwhore".

Saying someone would go to the dinner table calling his sister is a "mirvwhore" is like saying, if you play Grand Theft Auto youll go aroudn streets beating people with bats and stealing cars. Just becasue people see/hear it dosent mean theyll actually do it. I am one of the younger players in this game but, I do not go around calling people mirvwhores casue i see/hear it in this game. Do not judge people when its never been proven. Banning the words is a extreme way of dealing with this. Saying Languge has always been a good way to handle bad languge.

Political Correctness gone mad.
Any of you "Pro-Banners" should move to england and join the Labour Party.
They would love you no doubt.
