IMO on boards a heavier hammer should be in place. But that might slow the board down wit post counts.
The other problem is that what one person may see as being abusiver, another may see as comerdy.

in the uk we probably have much harsher comedians than any other country. i suspect many in the usa would be shocked by what uk comedians say and i have noticed on some uk chatshows some of the usa guests are rather surprised by what the chatshow host says as they are used to everyone being super nice.

its a bit like when that singer showed her boob at the superbowl. in nearly started ww3. yet in the uk no one cares if a man or woman goes fully nude and runds around on the pitch. in the 80's it was almost every game. and the holidays shows we had (i sure miss them) often had the camera man on the beach filming topless bathers (that was a family tea time show).

yet go to france all there comedians seem to be toilet and fart jokes.

so what is offencive to one person, to another is nothing.
