someone told me "we" don't like to be called hookers...

Great post Dkayz.
Treat others how you want to be treated.... just some thoughts as they relate specifically to this board:

- Be open minded.
- Understand the difference between generalized thoughts/points of view/opinions and specifically targeted personal attack.
- Understand words DO have power and are perceived differently by different people, no matter your actual intent.
- Encourage conversation that exchanges different points of view in a mature, positive and constructive way.
- Repect others boundaries. If something you've said is taken as an attack or is personally offensive, respect their opinion and don't "poke the bear" by repeating words you know are offensive to others just try hammer home a point.

How you are on the internet behind the safety of anonymity behind a keyboard is a big reflection of who you are as a person.

The subject matter and intent of this board and the inherent "anonymous troll" nature of the internet does not exclude you from being a decent respectful human being.

I'll put away my soapbox now.

However, when you start calling another member of the board by a term that they don't appreciate, then it becomes an attack on that specific member, which is a violation of the rules.

But the moment you start directing those terms towards someone who does not appreciate them, that is when I have a problem with it.

Please re-read guidelines 1-4 posted by St. C and make sure you are outside of those guidelines when replying on my section of this forum.

So your directive to me, is that if anyone is ever offended by, or does not appreciate a certain word, then it becomes a violation for me to use that word in reference to them?

Do yourself a favor, and start a new topic in modtardville about how you intend to enforce those guidelines in these forums...you might want to get some input from people who have done this for a while...before you step into something that ends your very short reign here...

After you've done that, come back here and clarify your position for the membership. You made this directive in public, you can correct it in public...

I personally prefer "hookers," the "sluttier" the better. It's why I hobby. Now those who are offended by that can be and I respect their position, but it doesn't change why I'm here. I happen to find it very exciting and quite the turn on when a woman relishes and excels in this role. If you're the type who doesn't, great for you and I wish you nothing but success.

But for me, you can keep your "courtesans," "upscale escorts," and all the other "classy" and "respectable" types. I'll save my money for a good ol "hooker/dirty whore," and enjoy my time in this hobby. Which if I am correct, is one of the main reasons why we're here? Be well, be safe, and enjoy yourselves people.

I like "hookers". I thinck I will call whores "hookers" as I see fit........even in KC.

Getting offended and being offended by these kinds of statements are unenforceable on a silly hooker message board.

Take Dkayz's statement "my section of this forum". A retard could get offended at a statement like that. Here is this newbie modtard calling your (collective you) forum his, implying that he is better at this modtarding thing than all of the other modtards on this board.

How dare all them other modtards allow fucktards to call hooktards "hookers" in their sections of this forum.

here is an idea just stay in Houston and leave the KC boards

[dearhunter]

Your idea is retarded......does that offend you?

[Wakeup]

I tried to warn you Dkayz...you're trying too hard...ask these people how that worked out for fritz's modtardship here...

Yawn.
Wakeup, your predictable monotone retorts did help my sleep number last night.

Umm, dearhunter,
Did you call Wakeup retarded?

Yo, Admiral, whose starting what?

[dearhunter]

If I did, it wouldn't be the first time.......I'm easy like that........ijs

[Unique_Carpenter]

Heh,
I miss Houston.

[dearhunter]

Houston does have more whores........hookers too.

[Wakeup]

Let us know how it goes in modtardville, Dkayz...the members in YOUR sections of this forum anxiously await the news concerning YOUR directive about enforcement of the rules...

[chicagoboy]

TJ, Johnny and Fighting Joe approve of this thread.

[dearhunter]
