14. There have been "safe havens" on DU for years.

You'd get the same treatment if you went to the Atheist forum and started to try and win converts.

I can understand the mix-up between forums. It is easy to see something on the Latest Page and click through without being aware of what group you land in. I have done that.

It's a shame you went on with your post after that point. You either don't know what's been the norm on DU for years or you were being less than straightforward in trying to paint the BOG as somehow different, perhaps more privileged than the other groups.
