do racist postings from racist websites meet the SOP of GD? boston bean May 2014 #3

That's for a jury to decide! Gormy Cuss May 2014 #45

Where do we look to find if the sources are credible when on a jury, ucr? Cha May 2014 #4

Good question Cha, I wish there was an easy answer ucrdem May 2014 #5

Got it..thanks again.. :) Cha May 2014 #8

Forget it CHA. William769 May 2014 #6

I think GD members are entitled to know what their options are alerters ucrdem May 2014 #9

And GD Hosts should know what there jobs are, which is clearly not the case. nt William769 May 2014 #10

I'm speaking as a current GD host. ucrdem May 2014 #13

I'm speaking as a former and future GD Host. William769 May 2014 #15

You don't seem to understand the job very well. ucrdem May 2014 #19

I understand all to well. and since the Hosts Forum is not secret William769 May 2014 #20

It's not up to me to decide what you can or cannot post on DU. ucrdem May 2014 #23

While I appreciate the post and it has a lot of great points maddezmom May 2014 #7

I am speaking from my experience as a GD host, yes. ucrdem May 2014 #12

It is a memo from you not from the host forum maddezmom May 2014 #21

If your experience as a current GD host is different I'll change the OP. ucrdem May 2014 #26

Not at this time, but I have served in the past. Was trying to be subtle but now I am going to be maddezmom May 2014 #29

If you would like to add anything please do. ucrdem May 2014 #43

Behave this way? You posted a META type thread in GD about the host forum maddezmom May 2014 #53

I wonder if the Admins could just add a greyed out disabled SOP choice on non-OP alerts. Make7 May 2014 #11

FWIW, if you want to post something racist in GD, the OP of this thead will defend it. LeftyMom May 2014 #14

... William769 May 2014 #16

That is grotesquely untrue and a disgusting thing to say. ucrdem May 2014 #17

There's no expectation of privacy in hosts, do you want me to C&P the whole thread? LeftyMom May 2014 #18

It's not up to me to decide what you can or cannot post on DU. ucrdem May 2014 #22

You have no business being a host then. Spider Jerusalem May 2014 #56

+ 10000 After this stunt, they should definately step down. bettyellen May 2014 #60

I am curious. DURHAM D May 2014 #24

No, they didn't. greatauntoftriplets May 2014 #25

I am not familiar with this poster. DURHAM D May 2014 #28

It doesn't. greatauntoftriplets May 2014 #30

Seems like a process issue more than anything BainsBane May 2014 #41

Actually, many hosts disagree with his interpetation, so the OP is misleading. bettyellen May 2014 #49

be careful not to get plsyed here. there is much more going on. boston bean May 2014 #50

There certainly is. greatauntoftriplets May 2014 #62

If your experience as a current GD host is different please let me know. nt ucrdem May 2014 #27

I am not a GD Host but DURHAM D May 2014 #31

I'm explaining several points that cause a lot confusion. ucrdem May 2014 #32

Okay. It is a stunt. DURHAM D May 2014 #33

Thanks for your input. ucrdem May 2014 #35

you do not have authority to speak to the hosts, it's embarrassing to watch. bettyellen May 2014 #51

bettyellen, we have responsibilities as hosts. ucrdem May 2014 #64

trying to cover the cover it seems. boston bean May 2014 #34

What exactly do find objectionable about the OP? ucrdem May 2014 #36

Since when do hosts "have a responsibility to set the tone of discussion Metatron May 2014 #40

what i find objectional is in knowing the backstory and reason for this post, boston bean May 2014 #42

What tone do you think was set by allowing a hate site spin like a turd in GD for 24 hours? Starry Messenger May 2014 #44

its like they think gd and du would be forever harmed with locking the thread. boston bean May 2014 #59

I get that people want to respect the process, but the dogmatic adherence to it was mind-blowing. Starry Messenger May 2014 #65

Yep DURHAM D May 2014 #38

We had an inactive MIRT member do it TBF May 2014 #48

Can you please explain what on earth you're tallking about? ucrdem May 2014 #54

I was responding to DURHAM D - TBF May 2014 #63

I'd like to add something BainsBane May 2014 #37

Respectfully, I ask you not to speak for me. ScreamingMeemie May 2014 #39

I'm not speaking for you and you're doing a fine job. ucrdem May 2014 #46

Unless other hosts asked you to speak for them could you correct the OP? It is very misleading. bettyellen May 2014 #47

What corrections are you looking for exactly? ucrdem May 2014 #52

"Memo from ucrdem...." or "Memo from a host..." This appears to be from a group, not your personal bettyellen May 2014 #55

Thanks for taking the time to explain. Nye Bevan May 2014 #57

Hosts have always had the authority to evaluate an OP based on the source used... SidDithers May 2014 #58
