Should the name of the Ravens forum members be changed to reflect what the proper term for a grouping of Ravens is called?

They probably chose The Flock because it was the least-offensive, catchiest-sounding name, even if it's somewhat inaccurate.

No, they wouldn't call us The Murder, no matter how much some people might want it; too many negative connotations, and it's not the most marketable name in the world for an all-ages message board. ;)

I wonder why groups of Ravens are given such obscure names?

A business of Ferrets, though, that's finding it's way into day to day conversation. Believe that.
Also I'll remember never to order the 'long-pig'.

A Group of Jays is called a Party. Now that's what I'm talking about.

If a group of Ravens is considered a Congress. Then what is a a group of Congressmen considered?

Murder wouldn't apply to us anyways. A Murder is a group of Crows, not Ravens.

You'd have to go with Unkindness or Congress.
