I am going to clean up my Jury Blacklist today.

2. Three were easy because they are gone.

I have ten left. The stats are quite interesting.

4 have 100% chance of being on juries, with no hidden posts. I have been debating removing them for a while thinking the nasty issues were because they could while in Meta. All four have made posts I have recommended in the past, so I think of them as "Good DU folk" who just didn't know me well enough to know I don't tell lies (hence the Meta issues).

2 have 60% chance of being on juries only because they aren't Star Members. One has a personal problem, and the other joined that team, but generally is a good DUer otherwise with some nice insights into things on regular occasions.

4 have small chances of being on juries and histories of having their posts hidden due to excessive Snark. Honestly, these posters have insulted so many people over the years they probably don't even remember my grievance, but since I can't trust them, they are staying on the list. Their "biting wit" can be funny sometimes, and with a message board, they can get a little "fast and loose" with courteous behavior, but truthfully, they are not "bad" people - just kind of obnoxious.

That leaves me with a couple of hundred thousand people to jury my posts when I say things other people don't like.

I'm good for now; I'll revisit the list in December and see if I want to start the new year with a clean slate. Maybe I will even reach out to my "Ignore" person to see if we can make peace.

Ah, living the dream of "why can't we all just get along?" I am *such* a Democrat!!!
