One More (Goodbye)

I want this post to be as ephemeral as life, itself. It's become injurious to my health to continue to participate in this excellent and diverse community, so, I'm going to do what I can to make a permanent end to my involvement on these fine and engaging pages. It's not actually an end, though - it promises to be a start of a new phase in my life and I'm looking forward now, more than I have in a very long time.

I want to thank each and everyone here for providing me with a world of ideas and expression which, I believe, is unmatched anywhere. You should all feel very proud of what you do here, and I wish and hope that you're looking forward, as well, as you continue participating on this discussion board and interacting with each other. That's enough said about that.

I'm going to leave with one more long political admonition which I wrote in 2004, and then I'll watch my thoughts evaporate along with my moniker.

Best of luck to all and best regards,
- Ron

I'm done, too.

If anyone wants to keep in touch PM me.

No opus from me, those who know me know why.

Take care.

DUmmy redqueen was one of the top Klams.

Maybe she got tired of playing second fiddle to Jugs.

That's probably it, but hey, BainsBane is a tough act to top, and so being "only" number two isn't so bad.

They're all 'number two' in my book.

DUmmy redqueen was furious in the big Klam kerfunkle over Spiderwoman's ass.

Figures.  Oh, excuse me I didn't realize 'Figures' was a sexist/shapist term...

It's good when some of them leave, even better when it's by death they leave, but good they leave nonetheless. That allows for some other kook to showcase their brand of stupidity and I'm all for that.

Maybe.

But nadin's permanent absence would be catastrophic.

The DUmp survived TiT's tombstoning and all the other deaths and disappearances only because of nadin's wisdom and guidance.

There's no one around or on the horizon to take her place.

That's not a horizon, that's Nadin's waistline.

Leaving. Not Leaving. Whatever. [View all]
 
Reality check.

DU is a discussion board. A lot of good stuff gets posted. A lot of comments rub people the wrong way. Mods and admins are not perfect.

To the people who announce their departure, what's your point? Perhaps the DU infrastructure is not meeting your specific needs? You don't like comments that are posted? Hoping there will be an outpouring of others begging you to stay?

When you announce your intention to leave, it seems like you're taking DU too personally. You've developed an unhealthy relationship with … a discussion board of mostly anonymous people. Seriously?

DU is a sample of the real world, albeit a sample skewed towards the left. As DU has grown, it's diversity has widened. Let's just recognize that and move on.

Apparently, redqueen does not like to be rubbed.

Still, Redqueen and "The Klams" both need nominated later in the year.  :-)

63. Jury Results: 6-1 to keep

On Wed Aug 27, 2014, 02:47 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

Is this in some way related to Spiderwoman's buttocks? (nt)
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=5450590

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

It could be, and it's rude to bring this up, since redqueen has been outspoken about this & other women's issues on DU. This post is insensitive to redqueen's concerns about DU's attitude towards women.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Aug 27, 2014, 02:59 PM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: There are many problems with this alert. The first is, the question makes sense. It is a recent conflagration that redqueen was in the middle of that could conceivably have caused her to want to leave. The second is, its not over the top or an attack. You can't wish a comment into the hide-able category because you don't like it.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: There is absolutely no reason to "alert" on this. People need to grow up.
H2O Man
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I don't think this is worthy of a hide.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The poster made it clear their point was serious, not meant to be hurtful.

Try to be adults with the alert button.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future

I'm not sure what the drug is called one can admister to make one more ceceptable to pain, but some DUmmies must be on that stuff 24/7. This is one of the dumbest alerts I have ever seen. Is it feasible that redqueef herself could have been the culprit?

Maybe Redqueen will follow in the footsteps of many other former primitives and start her own site, "Feminist Underground".

"Men ? F.U. !

Or start touring with the cast of the vagina monologues and sign for the hard of hearing.  I guess she would have to learn how to read lips first though.

Feminism is when you think you're entitled to act like a dick to everyone but as soon as someone pushes back you act like a *****.

That's it, exactly.

I dunno what BainsBane, the redqueen primitive, the seabeyond bitch, and the Bostonian beanie have to complain about.

They don't get their way 100.0% of the time, but they get their way 99.9% of the time.

No other group of primitives on Skins's island gets their way anywhere near that.
