Maybe the alerter wanted the thrill of being informed of the outcome on the nightly news coverage rather than on-line? Or, maybe they were recording the game and walked around all day actively avoiding any discussion of, or person that might have watched, the match.

Seems kind of silly to me.

It may have been the most chickenshit "hide" in the entire history of DU villager Jun 2014 #3

No, I'd say hiding my post for using the word 'ratfucker' because it is supposedly KittyWampus Jun 2014 #10

Exactly. greatauntoftriplets Jun 2014 #35

having an opinion about how a soccer team plays is not a hideable offense ...nt pbmus Jun 2014 #16

when you post a spoiler, it is. She could have quickly changed it, btw. KittyWampus Jun 2014 #18

And we had eight threads about it yesterday BainsBane Jun 2014 #41

Amazingly, DU survived. Xipe Totec Jun 2014 #45

Reputation, past history, and context matters. Xipe Totec Jun 2014 #68

it could be time for some changes in our hide system ... nt pbmus Jun 2014 #50

I've been saying that for ages BainsBane Jun 2014 #54

That's not why they were hidden. pintobean Jun 2014 #69

I don't think 4 jurors and 1 alerter is enough of a sample to say "DU has officially lost it" arcane1 Jun 2014 #70

And yet, it's the fraction of a fraction that mattered, isn't is? Xipe Totec Jun 2014 #74

who cares ? people get bad hides all the time and they don't start multiple threads about it JI7 Jun 2014 #26

Hey! I agree with you for once!! :-) nt Logical Jun 2014 #28

The alert problem has gotten out of hand on DU ... pbmus Jun 2014 #31

the problem has already existed in other cases but people didn't start multiple threads over it JI7 Jun 2014 #38

what, she did not ask me to start a thread ... this is me looking at DU pbmus Jun 2014 #44

so what ? others have gotten hides for stupid shit also, and she had many other hides, it wasn't JI7 Jun 2014 #48

I think 4-3 hides should hide, but should not count towards time outs. MohRokTah Jun 2014 #33

and someone should look at the alert and say BS or no BS before the community looks at it ... pbmus Jun 2014 #36

What? When did this happen? IronGate Jun 2014 #34
