REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Sure doesn't help the civility of DU much, eh? In a thread asking to stop gravedancing and nastyness, we get...nastyness. Calling DUers assholes. Please hide and let's get back to the DU we once had.

JURY RESULTS

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Aug 28, 2014, 01:02 PM, and the Jury voted 4-3 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Agree with alerter. Not only is this nasty attack hideworthy, poster doesn't seem to get that their nasty attack makes them look pretty hypocritical.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I was torn with this one... I agree with the poster's comments but do feel it could have been expressed a different way. I'm not pleased with having to do this because I feel the poster was using the term in general but because the OP asked for civility... I'll vote to hide.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: language attacking members is over the top and unnecessary
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: An honest sentiment.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Yeah, it's a bit much. I agree with Will and Bjorn Against, but we don't need to call folks "assholes" - couldn't you just be "sickened by those who feel the need to attack departing members"?

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
