Poll question: How many deleted posts do you have on your DU record?
I'd guess that I have about 20 deleted, (and I'm embarrassed if it's actually more!) mostly during the primary wars. What about you?

6. Most of mine were during the primaries and then...
during the Bev wars. :shrug: And I get pretty mouthy when someone posts antifeminist stuff. And anti-southern stuff. So I'd guess that that is where most of mine occurred.

3. Freaky! I was honestly thinking about posting something like this earlier!
Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa


I don't think I have any deleted messages btw. I've had three locked threads, but that only happened because of the sex thread incident. O8)

27. From the DU rules
There are no exceptions to these civility rules. You cannot attack someone because they attacked you first, or because that person "deserved it," or because you think someone is a disruptor. We consider it a personal attack to call a liar a liar, to call a moron a moron, or to call a jerk a jerk.

28. I didn't attack anyone, I was attacked.
For using what I was told was a banned word. The whole thing was quite ridiculous and childish. I thought we were all adults here.

Sorry if it's a dumb question.

I just signed up recently and I thought the rules said that conservatives are unwelcome. Did I misunderstand?

It's still my only locked thread.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=2299493

I have a lot of self-deleted posts, but I don't remember having any deleted by mods. I wish there were a real record of it somewhere.

It was totally uncalled for. I had been attacked repeatedly by another poster, and I simply stated that I was putting her on ignore. I'm not sure why my post was deleted for that. But anyway, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one!

43. Zero, I believe
I'm pretty nonconfrontational and even when I have a strong opinion about something usually manage to present it diplomatically enough so as not to inflame too many people.

Also, I tend to post mostly in the Lounge. There are so many people in General Discussion who present opinions basically the same as mine far more eloquently than I ever could.

Although, come to think of it, when I first came here I got into a couple or three skirmishes with agitating FReepers. Those actually may have earned me the majority of my first hundred or so posts. So I might have earned some deleted posts from those, but I can't remember any in particular...

I thought it was the world's most obvious example of saracasm and even had LeftyDad read it to be sure (the man has no sense of humor and he got it) but in the future I'll remember to add sarcasm tags for the humorless literalists amongst us.

Not that I'm bitter.

52. No deleted posts, but two locked threads.
One of those threads was during the brief mini-plague of masturbation threads in the Lounge, and I started out by thinly veiling it as a post about a band I liked only to show its true colors in the next paragraph.

BigMcLargeHuge was swift in locking the thread right away with the comment, "That's it. I'm putting a sign in the Lounge saying 'Don't taunt the mods.'"

62. Nothing removed, nothing locked...
...in over 10,000 posts. And I've been angry plenty of times!

I am pretty good about addressing the post, and not the poster...but there have been times that, though I've been careful not to technically break the rules, my intent was to hurt someone's feelings.

That's very bad, but rare, and never resulted in any type of intervention.
