173. The hide of your next post was one of the most ridiculous hides I have ever seen

Dec 2014

I was juror #1.

On Mon Dec 8, 2014, 08:07 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

She went looking for trouble, too, such as with her anti-wind farm posts
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=5930516

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

It's not fair to bash a DUer (who is still a member here) without her being here to defend herself.

JURY RESULTS

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Dec 8, 2014, 08:16 PM, and the Jury voted 4-3 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is a ridiculous alert. There is no attack and nothing over the top.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: The "She started it" tone of the post.... as a point in an argument, reminds me of a late Duers reflection of DU as sometimes like a middle school lunch room.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: If it were me, and I couldn't respond to a defaming post or defend myself, I'd want it hidden too.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I'm all for transparency, but this is a flat out call out. I hate to hide but call outs are prohibited.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: oy

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