But 'shits down' is a pretty appropriate expression to use for GD-P.

Oops. You edited it...

I guess my judgement was questioned when a Hillary supporter went "ott" in response to an even worse (but not hidden) ott attack.

Oh well. No need for me to carefully and selectively parse my words in the future to avoid hides in order to keep my jury participating percentage up, huh?

you were saying about jury participation so I looked @ your profile and I can't find where it says you can't serve on juries. Am I just missing it?

... barred (regardless of what their percentage might be) and that there would be no public shaming (on the user's profile page) because our would be disruptive and a badge of honor for some, or possibly humiliating for others, I suppose.

Based on how often I'd previously served (even at 40%) it's obvious that my eligibility has been terminated as a background setting/configuration in the forum software.

The imbalance continue. Oh well. It is what it is ... only worth noting, but not worth getting worked up over. It's his playground, he can do as he pleases, obviously.

amnesty.. I didn't read that he did away with that.

You just know you can't serve on juries or did you get a notification from him?

Anyway as you say.. no worries! We have the winning candidate that's what is really important here.

... exactly as he said it would be in an earlier public message he'd posted.

But based on how frequently I'd previously served (once or sometimes twice in a 24 hour period) and then a sudden drop to zero ... and knowing that alerts are still at a high pace, it's pretty obvious what's going on.

A flawed fix for a flawed system ... oh well.

We still win anyway! That's all that matters.

It sucks having something hidden by a BS jury, but it's only for a few more weeks.

It would be wonderful if they ixnayed their gloom and doom and became constructive partners in the effort to enact progressive policies. But that's too much to ask.

They are more interested in being emoprogs than anything else.

who will remain behind. But I think it wont be as much of a problem as some think. Most of the most vile Hillary haters and disruptors here are trolls and/or sociopaths who will not stay to be simply silent participants. They HAVE to be the center of attention and the conversation. They will be weeded out very quickly and scurry off to the 'other forum' or whatever serves the same function in trumpvile. Most are in the process of using up their socks and throw-away member IDs in preparation for either leaving voluntarily or having their asses booted out the door. A flame always burns brightest just before it winks out of existence! Their time here is very limited.
