If how H&M looks to outsiders is a concern...

what about making it a "private forum" which is only visible when logged in as a member? Lots of message boards have forums like that.

Wouldn't that also make posts here less likely to turn up in outside search engines?

3. I thought about that when I posted my whiny rant...

...wasn't sure how difficult it would be to implement. A lot of regular DUers aren't "members". It would probably need to be related to post count instead of membership.

Uh huh.

Bold phrase, above.

10. H&M is one of the biggest draws on DU3.

Why would they hide it? It's business.

They must know that they are the laughing stock of the web. What a bunch of bigots.

If you're embarrassed by people seeing your private conduct you need to think about why that is.

DUmpmonkey primatives don't like to have their dirty laundry laughed at. :lmao:

It's also an indication that they KNOW that they have reason to be embarresed, to me that takes it to a different level.

Maybe they just want a little privacy to plan their next riot in peace without all these rude people looking in on them.

I don't look in H&M very often anyway. It's where the 3 year olds complain about the 2 year olds.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

Between the moles and the constant oversight by the Feds of DU, there's no way they'll keep thier plans and activities totally secret.

13. I'd get behind that
I'd actually been thinking along similar lines.

What's H&M? Sounds like something fat Chez's less experienced cousin would be involved with.

Oh now.

Surely you've heard of the "Help and Meta Discussion" forum on Skins's island.

It's one of the new features of the new DU.

It's great.

It's as funny as Hell.

It rivals the "General Discussion" forum in size over there.

But the picking are better in H&M.
