Only the DUmpmonkiez would bitch when a jury vote goes their way... but not all the members are in lock-step.

Looks Like Jurors #2 And #5 Need To Do Some Self-Examination.
I alerted on this post: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=35419
AUTOMATED MESSAGE: Results of your alert
At Mon May 7, 2012, 03:53 PM you sent an alert on the following post:
ONLY OBAMA despite your despair: Obama vs Romney & biodiversity
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=35419
REASON FOR ALERT:
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards[/url].)
YOUR COMMENTS:
Read this steaming pile; there is so much wrong in it, I don't even know where to start, but the overall tone is 'Obama Bad.' TOS checked off.
A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Mon May 7, 2012, 04:00 PM, and voted 4-2 to HIDE IT.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: The post could use a few more paragraph breaks, to be sure, but if there's so much "wrong" with it, a simple reply ticking off one or more of those alleged errors would be far more productive than clicking alert like a crack-addicted monkey looking for one last score from the disconnected "reward" machine.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: "Steaming pile" is being generous.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: We need some mechanism to track people who alert posts that should not have been alerted (a category into which this post clearly falls.) I don't know about the alerter - but I read Skinner's "rules for this election cycle" and this is well within them.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Thank you.
Post was hidden, poster MIRT'ed.
#2 and #5, you screwed the pooch.
Big Time.
I used the rules and TOS of this site appropriately; seems the PTB agreed with me.
What a ficking bitch.

7. It points out massive flaws in the Jury system.
Both jurors got it totally wrong. Massively, totally wrong. Poster was MIRT'ed for just cause.
I can ban no one.
I do not have that ability.
I doubt that I have any influence whatsoever over the owners of this site, or anyone appointed by them to help moderate it, in having anyone banned.
Too bad all you can see is some type of revenge or 'punishment' motive.
Maybe a good look in a mirror may help you to find an answer to that particular question.
maybe if Ikonoclast had summery execution powers she'd be happy. But, I doubt it.

So much the better.

You just knew that the jury system was going to provide high quality entertainment. Hopefully it stays around for a while. :popcorn:

No, four other like-minded moonbats agreed with you.
The DUmbass got what he/she/it wanted, but that wasn't enough. They are so ego-driven that they have a shit fit if people aren't 100% in lockstep with them.

We need that system here :lmao: We could have some fun with vesta
