1. I am sorry this happened to you.

I have learned not to take the bait here on DU (because they will try you every chance they get not all but some).

I stayed out of that thread for a reason.

But I do want to say thank you for all the hard work I have seen you do on behalf of the LGBT community.

[Orrex]

2. Clearly you have more sense than I do.

I should know better than to let myself get drawn in, but here we are.

[Fearless]

19. I wish I had seen it at the time

I've gone nearly 1250 days without a hidden post, and it was a dumb joke about Chris Christie. I figure if I get hidden, it ought to be for something I'm right about. Perhaps another time.

3. That's one nasty thread & I'm sorry this nastiness is

showing up here but I'm not surprised.

[Orrex]

7. I was reluctant to bring it up here, since this should be a safe haven

But I needed a hug!

[giftedgirl77]

11. & I can see why you need one after that crap...

But thankfully it wasn't all for nothing the hides are coming in now.

[Kurska]

17. Based on what I can tell, the jerk alerted on every single one of your posts.

Bad juries happen and one was bound to go through. At least he is gone now.

[Orrex]

20. Thanks for that.

In that case, I should look at the bright side and appreciate the juries that didn't hide my posts.

4. AUTOMATED MESSAGE: You alerted on a post which was already alerted

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=6763109

Also he is flagged for review.

[William769]

8. Let's hope the Admins do the right thing with this one.

[TDale313]

9. Good.

[Orrex]

10. Thanks.

I hoped that might be the case.


I've also asked about the issue as a whole in ATA. We'll see how it goes...

[uppityperson]

12. Another hide and transparency page is showing also.

[Orrex]

13. Wow--four in one day.

And to think I was afraid that I was being unreasonable.

[uppityperson]

14. Check his profile page now. Don't mess around with EarlG.

[Orrex]

15. Wow. I miss him already.

Nicely done, EarlG!

[Kurska]

16. I'm glad his temper tantrum cost him his 5k post account.

Even gladder he isn't on DU anymore.

Thanks Earl!

[Behind the Aegis]

25. Calvin and Hobbes express my feelings...

[JustAnotherGen]

28. His name should have been a dead give away

Not that Talented - but talented enough to be here for more than 4K posts.

[Marrah_G]

31. I'm glad that asshole is gone

Juries can really be clueless.

Thanks Earl!!!!!

[Warpy]

5. Feed a troll

and you get covered in troll shit.

If it makes you feel any better, he got a hide, too, right after yours.

[Orrex]

21. Yeah, I'm glad that people saw him for what he is.

Or was, I guess.

[TDale313]

6. I'm sorry your post got hidden.

There's a lot of ugliness in that thread. I've also mostly stayed out of it. Thank you for calling it out.

[Orrex]

23. Glad to see that a number of posts have now been hidden.

Ugliness is right. Good riddance!

[TDale313]

24. And the one poster got his well-earned pizza.

[Zorra]

18. Welcome to the Victims of the DU Homophobic Juries Club.

Thanks for speaking the truth, Orrex.

[Orrex]

22. Kind of surprising to see it so plainly.

Thanks for the support!

[emsimon33]

30. "Homophobic Juries Club"--well said!

[Behind the Aegis]

26. I am sorry for the hide.

Amazing that was hidden, but ""As God is my witness, I'll never go unPACed again!"" was left 7-0! I, for one, greatly appreciate your comments and taking people to task, especially the one you did! Dr. King said it best...



Thank you for doing what was right!

[JustAnotherGen]

27. Sometimes

It's worth the hide

[emsimon33]

29. I mostly lurk these days because of the jury system

Recently it has become a means for a few to hunt the many for no good reason. I just don't sign in so that I am not tempted to take their bait. I am so sorry that you have been a victim.
