Is calling out of another DUer against the rules?
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Jan 10, 2015, 01:12 AM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: It used to be frowned on, back when we had rules around here. Msanthrope is taking her chances to make a point about Sabrina. That point is well taken, but it'd be nice if this community could get back to more reasonable, civil behavior. DU is sliding down into a free-for-all when even long time members make petty jabs and reduce a serious discussion into Meta malarkey.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
