From the hidden "meta forum," no link because most here won't be able to see it anyway.

At this point I have removed myself from the jury pool. I have concluded the system truly does not fully work, so I will no longer participate in it.
I also have concluded that DU has a large list of things that cannot be posted... and that abuse is allowed.
So, there you have it. Will no longer participate in the jury system, and to my fans, alert away... please do. I know you will continue to do such, even on sky is blue comments.
After a certain incident I put myself back on the pool, but not any more.
So given the numbers of subjects that are not kosher... well, I guess I will reduce quite a bit of my activity to the writers forums, the Photography forum, and other sub forums.
Have a good day DU.
OH and from now on, will not even bother with telling people when they go to the ignore list, in any shape or form, but I expect the list to continue to grow, as I will not participate in the alert system either, and will not bother alerting. Mostly, why bother?
Promises, promises.
We all know how well the oblate spheroid keeps her promises.

Drama queen.

Drama queen.
Yeah, the oblate spheroid makes it sound as if, by her dropping out, the primitives are going to lose something.
-
...and to my fans...[\quote]
Now that's just plain funny
-
Lying again as usual.
We've all learned that nearly every post by the scrunt is a big lie.
The primitives are now figuring this out, as most are already on her "iggy" list. :rotf:
Gnads the never-was decided to pull her own flush lever.

But but what about the crunchy news? How will they ever get by without her dramatic prose and constant arrogance?

Now who's gonna pee in the pool?
-
To bad she didn't remove herself from the gene pool all those years ago....
-
She's probably pissed because she gets outvoted every time by 5 to 1.
-
Since I don't have a mole (yet), I would love to hear how many primitives beg her to remain in the pool.
-
Lying again as usual.
Uh huh.
The oblate spheroid's promised before, and then went back on her promise.

Well time to throw up hands on the jury system.
Not only will I remove myself from juries, but will no longer alert on obvious personal attacks and cyber stalking.
As far as I am concerned the system is useless.
-

From all I've seen, the only primitives responding to this in the meta forum are pals of the oblate spheroid.
They're trying to persuade her to stay, although I have no idea why.

Thanks, I was hoping Zapaman would jump in and smack her around.

Nope, I didn't see the zapping primitive there--maybe he avoids the meta forum--but if he had been there, the dialogue might've been worth quoting.
But as it is, it's just six or seven primitives, known lackeys of the oblate spheroid, begging her to stay, but not telling us why she should stay.

That incident would probably be the tombstoning of DUmmy Obamanaut.

She gets one post hidden today and has to go drama queen all over everybody, what a tool.

She's back to posting crunchy news with "no comment''. That'll teach 'em.

Nah, no need. She didn't make some outlandish claims of expert-hood, which he tends to pounce on and call her out.
He likes calling the liar a liar, and she has never once been able to show him wrong.
This one kind of puzzles me.

I find this odd.
I've checked in there fairly often, and it is probably the one area where she doesn't get smacked around.
The folks in there seem to accept everyone as equals and are reasonably polite, even to Gnads.
I'll probably continue to visit that area, as some of them actually do have some nice photos.

About the treatment toward a DU member in San Diego: I'm gonna ask DU to Knock it the Hell Off.
We're all different, we're all unique.
A lot of people like to get news out before it breaks in the MSM, and sometimes they get it wrong.
Tonight I'm seeing a lot of dredging up of old posts, mocking, taunting, even new threads started.
I feel that I'm seeing stalking and bullying and I'm really disappointed to see it here, directed toward a DU member.
All about a good and active DU member, active here and active in her community, more active than most of us.
I'm embarrassed, I though we were better than that.
So, please, Knock it the Hell Off.
TIA.

1. I'm with you, and her, my dear NYC_SKP.
nadinbrzezinski (107,559 posts)
2. Thanks
But it strikes me as this is truly who or what a lot of du'ers really are, bullies and stalkers.
So, the ignore list is just growing by leaps and bounds.
If people can't be adults, they will be given the silent treatment.
DU has never been a safe place, because this shit, and it is shit, is allowed.
For the record, thanks.

13. It is just proof the DU is... well, drifting, more to the Right.
Less empathy, less tolerance, more knee jerk piling-on for some supposed slight or transgression, real or imagined.
The root problem is there are too many DLC and DINO types here. They are currently defining what a Democrat
is. The more Liberal and progressive members are being pushed out.
The "Big Tent" is getting so crowded, that it is being held up by all those inside and not by the support structure that is supposed to define the boundaries of tent.

NYC_SKP (42,610 posts)
6. A thread calling for general civility in our DU community, toward active members.
What a horrible horrible thing, right?
Moderators would have locked and removed the bulk of these threads and replies that pick on another member.
It really is embarrassing, it's beneath junior high school.
Pathetic.

The attention sought is being received. If you want to feel embarrassed, feel free.
greyl (16,225 posts)
20. Which thread is that? This one is about a specific DUer and a particular circumstance.
I doubt any "authentic" DUer would be against general civility toward active members in general, but many controversial DUers do know they're controversial, and they generally enjoy it.

27. There is not feud in this case, just plain old harassment that has gone on for way too long and people are sick of it. I would think by now, since so many people have tried to tell you all who can't seem to stop, that a majority of us are simply disgusted by it.

Seems like somebody upset some people, but not enough to be banned, as I haven't seen any gravedancing, so he/she couldn't have done anything *that* bad, so what's the big deal? I guess some DUers see stuff like this as very important indeed.

We're all different, we're all unique.
Yes, and when people go after those who are 'unique', which happens all too often as they are often the most vulnerable, someone should step in imo, and I am wondering why that did not happen for so long in this case.
Thank YOU for trying, a very classy thing to do imo.

It's one thing to argue and disagree with someone in a thread, but to go outside that thread and badmouth a member is juvenile, hurtful, and destructive to the DU community.

And we got this, from last April:

119. Per warning, that list continues to grow.
UnrepentantLiberal (6,515 posts)
120. I do wonder...
how long it really is...
Geezuz, nadin's such a pig.
And with more chutzpah than she reasonably deserves to have, thinking that putting primitives on her "iggy list" punishes them, deprives them of something valuable.

Nads is so high on herself. She thinks that without her the DUmp will die. Actually, with out here, the DUmp will just lose another loony chew toy. God, that fugly little troll is so retarded.

What I personally find most irritating about the oblate spheroid is her chutzpah-ish belief that by putting a primitive on her "iggy list," she's punishing him, depriving him of something.
Gawd, the gall she has.

Yes, a punishment worse than death itself. What will 87.581 percent of DU do? (that's just an estimate of her iggy list , but probably accurate)

I would take going on Nads ignore list as a good thing. The less interaction you have with that bald headed retard, the less stupid you get.

What if everyone took the position that they were removing themselves from the jury pool ? I think that should be grounds for banning.

44. Trust me I laugh about the stalkers
but the issue of stalking and bullying has legal implications to it. And as you can see from a response above, can lead to serous consequences.
NO, I am not fond of sugar coating things either. And that is a problem.
But as far as I am concerned, I will simply do what I think I need to do, boycott the system. Occupy: Guide to the Perplexed http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/120904

56. Nope, that's not it. But you were *really* close.
Methinks you are judged too harshly because occasionally you dare to bring up your actual expertise that's a laugh, right there and some just can't handle their assumptions dealing with the face of knowledge and experience.

"wrong" than most people here,oh yes she has and at least once spectacularly in error. But, often as not, the veracity of her statements has nothing to do with whether or not she gets trashed.
I see that her main tormentor has been shown the door, so we'll see about the future.

71. I was referring to her condecending attitude toward anyone that might happen
to respectfully disagree with her. I've been on the receiving end of that on a few occasions. I don't follow her around, and only comment in threads that pique my interest, whether she's in them or not. But I won't cow-tow to anyone, and that includes Nadin.

Dug some of those tidbits up yesterday, and saved them.
They had gNads and sabrinanumber running in circles trying to stomp out little fires.
GNads must have put her gNomex panties in the drier, cause she got her ample heiney blistered.
