Either post what you have to say and defend it, or don't. And if you screw up with your post simply apologize and move on to the next one.

That you have to ask others is telling but, to be honest, not totally off base around DU anymore. Any given day out of all the people on Du 4 can decide your post should be hidden while another 4 members never asked could decide it is fine (we call it 'community standards' but it is only based on what a few in the community think so it is more 'my personal standards and what I don't like and you shouldn't either').

In a big tent you will offend someone. Always. If in doubt post elsewhere where folks are more open to all views (and you probably won't like all the replies or posts you see but that doesn't mean crap, it's just part of life that people won't see everything the same way). It has taken me a lot of years on du and other boards for some things to sink in. Guess my mind was just as stubborn on that as other things. I welcome other views, ideas, challenges to my own way of thinking about an issue.

Now get off my lawn or I will release my smoking pitbull who has a scary looking assault rifle (just a regular gun but has a bayonet lug attached....)
