Trivial stuff, mostly people just voicing their opinions. That's 1 out of 5, a .200 average.

But I don't think that's reason to stop participating in the DU community. Because when we do, just like with voting, the douchebags win.

I couldn't track down the post Trumad's talking about. It is, however, quite the battle royal in GD lately.

I've been on 3 juries in the past few days. And, i'm only on DU an hour or so a day! In all three cases, it was in GD.

Some of the posts have been really tame and in no way offensive. I'm not even sure what is wrong with your original post that is even worthy of a "hidden thread".

Look people if you don't like what someone writes, ignore them. Or fight with them in the Sports Forum. We need more Tebow, LeBron, Tennis fights here -

They were head shaking WTF's as to why they were alerted on.

My thread previous thread was alerted on by someone in the sports forum, someone who is an alert troll, scanning all of DU for things that offend them, or--- someone who just doesn't like me and has me on their radar.

It's creepy as shit in mho.

I think you and i were on the same jury Rock.

I posted in meta about the weird editorial message in the jury results and i think you were on that thread too.

Maybe i'm mixing you up with Scurilous.
