Hello Admins. How do we report on people continually violating

DU's TOS agreement?

Specifically - "DU members must support Democratic nominees ... For non-presidential contests, election season begins on Labor Day. Everyone here on DU needs to work together to elect more Democrats and fewer Republicans to all levels of American government. If you are bashing, trashing, undermining, or depressing turnout for our candidates during election season, we'll assume you are rooting for the other side."

I wonder if the mods are as aware of trolling, (now that the new system is in place) ?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Alert on the Post with a description of what is wrong with the post & make sure to put a check mark in the TOS violation box (even if the post is not hidden, it will still go to the Administrators).

Or you could just Skinner a DU mail link: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=profile&uid=100801

with emails, if I can avoid it.

Thanks for the tips.

I alerted on a post yesterday for a TOS violation. The vote was evenly split and the post remained. Though, one of the 'judges' who voted to leave it, indicated that the alerter must be an "Obama lover." That's a bit concerning given this is a board for Democrats.

Ugh.
