The GD:P has got to go.

[palindrome]

I can't even talk in there without getting attacked.

1. hey hey ho ho

2. Well, consider your most recent OP.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=5892781&mesg_id=5892781

I'm sure you could ask admin to give you your donation back.

4. Gee, ya think posts like yours are why he doesn't feel welcome???

Come back with your snarky comments, but it does not change the FACT that a LOT of people around here
are being rude and ridiculous.

5. I'm sorry,

was I rude or otherwise unfriendly? I suggested that considering that OP, he might not feel welcome or feel attacked. I also suggested that he could ask for his donation back, which seemed to be the original concern. Don't see how that might make someone feel unwelcome. Enlighten me, please.

6. You didn't see the OP as a venting of frustration of what has been going on over there?

It's down right ugly. Basically telling someone to roll out is pretty meannnnnnn

[flvegan]

7. "telling someone to roll out"?

I don't even know what the hell you're talking about.

Venting of frustration? Okay, but when one makes a statement slamming DU in its entirety because their candidate seems unpopular while seemingly defending a pro-their candidate site...one should be wearing his big boy pants, and not cry about getting attacked.

Yeah, it's ugly. Expect it, or stay the hell out of GD: P like I tend to. Don't make a case if you can't take the feedback.

AND, you didn't address my direct questions about my personal response. How MY response is part of the problem.

14. I don't know what the hell YOU are talking about

You use a lot of words to justify or excuse how belligerent in tone your response was.
It was rude and uncalled for.
YOUR response is PART OF THE PROBLEM because you are purposely being snarky and rude-
much like what the OP indicated is going on over in GD : P
It's argumentative, snarky, immature and obnoxious responses like that
that make DU a VERY uncomfortable place to be for people who
observe common courtesy and are trying to enjoy life rather than create chaos.

If you need to get your jollies picking on faceless people on an internet board,
I suggest you get out more.
The OP was actually pretty vanilla, but YOU had to take the time to do a search
(lame!) and find something you could come back at him with.


EDIT: GDP originally came up as GD:P so I fixed it

11. Give em hell flvegan

13. Yeah, it's SUPER COOL to be rude to people!!

Yay!!

3. I saw your thread over there

I don't hate Hillary. I will vote for her if she's the nominee. I do take issue with the way her campaign has been conducted.

Try the Lounge for a while - it's much friendlier. I've had to put a couple more people on "ignore" after my venture into GD-P today!

8. If GD:P goes, that nastyness will filter back down to the other forums.

I say keep it penned up.

9. What the hell are you talking about???!!!!

10. If other forums apply enough pressure

maybe GD-P will finally admit defeat and step aside.

12. Follow Skinner's advice on how to hide the forum, if you don't like it.

15. I know.

It's tough to swim against the current, but I've never been very good at conformity. Screw the haters. :hi:
