I have a possible solution.  It may just please everyone.  Can you make it possible for players to click on a word to vote to delete that particular word?  If you make it that only one person per internet provider could vote then one person couldn't vote more than once. (Like one vote from WEBTV, one from AOL, etc.)  This should please the players who feel words like DRESSES use all the esses and ruin a game.  It should also please any players who feel anything was directed at them because many people would have voted the word out, not just one player.  It's a very democratic solution.  The votes would have to be cast before a next word is made or it might affect the next play.  Once another word has been made, then everyone would agree that it was an acceptable word because they did not vote. If a person takes two turns and the previous word is the offending word, then it should still be up for votes because the person would have cheated to get his word in before the votes could be cast.  This same vote method could be used to vote out a person's word when they went twice.  So it solves two current problems.  Just a thought.
