I'm not sure where the term "editor" came from.
This place gets so shrill sometimes it sounds like a bunch of pissed off monkeys. The people crying "foul" are frequently those who want to argue and do little else. I usually can't be bothered to even read the stuff, and if the participants want to throw feces at one another, I ain't gonna try to clean it up.

That said, people bitch about language often do so because that's all they have.
