In reply to the discussion: Hey Kids! We just got alert-nannied in our safe haven yet again. [View all]DURHAM D
(33,057 posts)25. Just wanted to let you know this was Alerted on.
Your post was allowed to stand 1-6. Here is the Alert message and jury results:
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
This is the first day back for this member who has been recently banned for attacking religious believers on the site repeatedly. So he doubles down by calling them "jesus freaks" and other slurs. He is just plain toxic and blames the juries for responding to his attacks.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sun May 4, 2014, 06:58 PM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The Jesus Freak thing was a little disrespectful, but honestly, by alerting on a post about a group of individuals excessively alerting on his posts, you kind of make his case for him...
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: The basic Community Standards and ToS of DU apply site-wide; religious bigotry and broad smears against other DUers are offensive, disruptive, and inappropriate, regardless of whether they are placed in a safe-haven Group or not.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If this had been said in Religion or one of the main forums, the alert would be justified. But it was said in a safe haven. If the alerter doesn't like such comments, they don't need to go into that safe haven. As the old saying goes, listeners rarely hear good of themselves.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Note: For some reason it took a very long time for the results to come back.

OP
And in the meantime, actual defenses of homophobia in said organization are allowed to stand.

Also, I would suggest to everyone in A&A: fill up your jury blacklist, judiciously.

Indeed, the goal is to exercise the auto-ban feature of DU 3.1 on us awful atheists, and to use

The alerter is like the one that gets bent out of shape when the topic comes up.

I kinda expected it to be alerted on, and considered adding a note to the jury...
