REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Causes a massive flamewar in GD, goes to the Lounge to laugh about it. Classy.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Mar 28, 2014, 10:13 PM, and the Jury voted 1-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Yeah,this is getting ridiculous. Hide.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: There is absolutely no reason this should have been alerted. Will Pitt is a long time member of this site and is well respected by many of us, the harrassment he has received this week is disgusting. I would much rather have Will Pitt posting on this site than whoever it was that alerted this.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: So let me get this straight - Will Pitt started a flame war this week so now we have to hide his posts? Never going to happen.

Will Pitt is like a father to me. He is the greatest Duer who ever drew a breath. Alerting on him should be a banable offense!!!!
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Much as I'd love to hide the post, considering the source, there is really no reason to do so.

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