WTF SKINNER? A HIDE for voting today as is my right?

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

Your jury system sucks. I know it is biased---- you have allowed them to chase away half of the Democrats on YOUR website. I just had a thread hidden for no reason whatsoever. I have been one of the best mannered persons on DU and my thread would never had been touched months ago. I can vote for anyone I want to vote for and the people who want to take away my voice and my vote deserve to be banished forever.

Refund my star money.
Later, much later.

However, I don't think it is Skinner's fault on that one.

I did not understand why it was hidden.
I am sorry that happened.

People get way to tied up with their candidate, someone will win and someone will lose but most importantly is Trump does not become President. Anyways sorry you don't like the Jury system, it's not perfect but it's better than nothing and I serve on a couple Juries a day, I think they are pretty impartial and even handed.

The hide e-mail will usually indicate why it was hidden.

If you expect a response, post in ATA.

He won't change it until all the primaries are done and the last hurrah of getting it out of everybody's system is done.

I thought your OP that was hidden was silly, especially the part about leaving the Democratic Party, but I wouldn't have voted to hide it. The hide was 4-3. Juries have been filled with douchebags for months.

You might have noticed that fact more had you been on my side in this thing. We've known about jury douchebaggery for at least a year now.
