My greatest hide

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Raffi Ella (a host of the General Discussion forum).

ya gotta love Juror 4's explanation. At least they're honest.

Personal attack - calling other users "knuckleheads".

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Sun Sep 21, 2014, 06:21 PM, and voted 4-3 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Just because I've seen worse doesn't mean we should be calling each other knuckleheads. Though I predict this will be left...
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I don't mind the post but I don't care for Trumad. So I'm voting to hide.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If I was being ganged up on by people using a false narrative, I might be tempted to call them worse than knuckleheads.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Poster did not do what you claimed...s/he did not call anyone knuckleheads. Leave it alone.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I think the poster has every right to defend against the nasty things and intentional "misinterpretation" that some agenda-driven posters on this thread promote.

Its misuse by juror 4.

Anyone offended by Knucklehead is being dishonest - it makes me think of Jackie Gleason.

has a personal dislike.. talk about "knuckleheads".

I was on a jury a couple of nights ago for someone I really didn't like but it wasn't a hideable(is that even a word?) offense in my view.. bout on par with "knucklehead".. oops, I believe the word was "arrogant".

The jury.. can be really ridiculous sometimes.

#2 is a trip.

--------------

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Sep 20, 2014, 07:19 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I have it on good authority that Manny is a masochist and likes the abuse
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: LOL!!!!1111 I just finished reading this OP before I was called for Jury.
I sure wish the admins and MIRT would look into why so many posts are alerted upon and/or are hidden hidden on Manny's OPs. I also wish that they would take a close look at said alerter. He throws out flames then does his alert schlep! Shame on you Manny! I am so over your crap! Whine... " This is just abuse"...tears.... And, Manny, LEAVE NANCE ALONE!
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Debate points you disagree with rather than attack people. Thanks.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Nance speaks truth.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: NO, NOT ABUSE, JUST AN ASTUTE OBSERVATION
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: mild, but still an off topic, personal attack. I say hide it.
