GOOD BYE. I'm tombstoning myself, before the moderators do it.Posted by arendt on Wed Sep-03-08 02:01 PMI am leaving this board because, very recently, far too many of my posts are being locked by moderators who shoot first and ask questions later. I have been at this board for over six years; I have many popular threads. But only in the last month have I had MANY posts locked for nit-picking and inconsistent reasons. The final straw for me was being locked for saying that (gasp) there ARE concern trolls at DU. (I did not name any topic or any person in particular.) I removed the offending terminology and reposted, mentioning the demanded edit and apologizing for my mistake. For the offense of mentioning that an edit was demanded, I was locked again for "complaining about the moderators". (Oh, right, I was given a whole eight minutes to notice the new warning and remove the "offensive language". Too bad I was doing something else in that window.)Well, even someone as stubborn as me gets a message like that. Goodbye, Skinner. I used to like you. Now, I'm just sad I spent so much time here for nothing. This place isn't what it used to be.Good luck to the Democratic Party.--------If the moderators have any decency they will let this post stay unlocked, as it is my last one here.arendt

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
