The DU Facebook says it will come back not too long after DU is fixed.

It's be nice if Skinner would at least put up a status/info page at that domain so people know what's going on with DI. (Though I had a different user name there I was a fairly frequent poster on DI.)

I don't do Facebook so I didn't see  that post. Maybe there is still hope...

Hey Atilla, seeing you here is making this feel a little like home.
I was at DI. It was fun wasn't it.
Someone here told me not to out my DI name in case I get to use it again, so I'm incognito, but I'm one of the independents of which there were many.

I have been om DI since day #1... in fact I was the first member to get a 5 hide time-out.

Since then I've racked up about 25 socks.

It will be fun if Skinner brings it back with all of the old posts but one has to wonder how many of the leftards would dare to return given how cocky and sure they were that Hillary was a shoe-in.

It would be fun to assist them in the acceptance of  their new subordinate roles in the political venue, many of us are eager to help...

With DU fully up I can see no reason for DI not to also be up, save that the owners don't want it up. That's a damn shame, as it was a great venue for people with varied  political views to discuss their differences...

Agreed.  I participated some early on, but got bored.  Used this or a variation of my screen name here.  Was looking forward to exploring it again after the election.

Skinner (Naveed) is a gutless slime.  There was no hack.  They just couldn't bear the heat they were going to get when they lost the election.  It's now been almost 3 weeks and there is no reason they couldn't have brought the site back up other than the fact that they are cowardly ****ers and can't stand the heat.

And I'll be the first to tell them that if they bring the site back up.

Gutless assholes!

Yeah, at times it was. I'd be very surprised if they fire it up again. I doubt they want conservatives spiking the football over and over again on their own website. I tried JackpineWackos but that was a freak show so I told them so and they banned me forever.

Anyone know who Grahamcrackers is (was) IRL?

Have we checked the obituaries?
Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

I don't think DI will return. There were too many posters who did not revere hiLIARy, and they must not be allowed to gloat.

The gloating would put the nail in Grahamcrackers' coffin for sure.

I looked in there initially from desperation, but it looked more and more like DU minus Hillary, so I never joined...

At this point it looks to me like DI won't be coming back. We're three weeks out and DU has been fully restored for quite some time now.

I think if it did come back that many of the lefties would not be back after being so overconfident about Hillary trouncing Trump. There would be a whole ton of crow to eat which many of them wouldn't be up for. So I think in the end it would end up being a right-leaning site. I'm make no claims of being a mindreader but I think that may be Skin's reasoning for not bringing it back.
