Reply #164: I agree with all of that, especially on the name-calling and flames [View All]

Not that I haven't been pissed off once enough to lower myself, I have. Still, I don't see the good of segregating DU members, or exiling DU members, except in extreme circumstances individually when the admin feels it is required. There are just too many people here of diverse philosophies and backgrounds for any of us to get the idea that we can expect an amiable atmosphere for every single one of us all the time. But relief is built into the system in the Ignore feature if only it will be used. My bigger concern is the possible restriction of free and open discussion on DU. It's something we need to be very careful about.
