In the spirit of How (Not) To Ask A Question, what have you tried already? Your node strikes me as the "high and mighty" type -- you're ranting about people doing things that you find offensive, you aren't giving the majority of our users enough information to determine if it really is offensive, and it seems like you're looking for the lot of us to get upset enough to sanction people.

Did you try suggesting to those chatters that you didn't like their behavior? Where's the line that shows you asking them to stop?

Did you even try messaging one of the power users and asking them to sanction the chatters? It appears not.

If you don't follow the basic steps to deal with something you find offensive when you first find it offensive, why should we be bothered with it later? I find this node far more offensive than any lewd or sexist comments that might have occured in the CB.
