ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Bashing DU and whining about DU.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Aug 30, 2014, 05:08 AM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: So? The only reason this was alerted on was because it's a low-count poster, I bet.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Some elements of DU (e.g., rampant misogyny), deserved to be bashed. Dismissing legitimate concerns as "whining" is part of the problem. I wish I could alert on this alert.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Dead wrong to alert on this newbie. I most certainly believe her, unfortunately. When that happens, it should be stopped, one way or another. She should not have to bear it in silence or get tombstoned. Leave this post, please.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If complaining about how people behave were worthy of a hide, nearly everyone would be banned.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
