(47,209 posts)since when is posting facts about what happened is a smear? Hint: it isn't. Another hint, if you care so much about OPs being hidden, it;s a good idea to actually scan the page you are linking to. If not, other DUers will do it for you. It has always been that way.
Now, hosts claiming that alerters should be completely ignored because of WHO and not the WHAT was posted- that is completely beyond the pale. Shame on them.
"135. She did post RW crap, it's not a smear- it's reality.
Accidental or not- I didn't speculate. No insult there. It happened, was corrected and not the end of the world. I said the same thing to Grasswire's face. Know a bit about your sources. It's not hard.
Hosts speculating WHY many different DUers alerted are some kind of a group? That was a smear, unfounded, and shows bias against six good DUers. Do they not matter?
It is now clear that some hosts are looking at the people, and not the posts when deciding how to vote. They explain this here while avoiding discussion of the OP.
That explains a lot if the inconsistency here.
Poor Achshmid asking for other hosts to weigh in. They didn't realize that's only welcome theoretically.
I never did try and "vote", but said many times I thought it was a bad lock as handled. But it should have been a clear easy lock. It's pretty cut and dry. "
