Thanks Skinner for a better forum
 
I've been here for almost 13 years. I've seen many many many "digital dustups" here. To be expected, of course.

However, many of those have been quite, um, non-productive, to put it politely.

Since you changed the TOS, MOST of the dustups have been, IMHO, productive. Exchange of information. Cordial disagreement. Very Democratic and democratic.  :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Forums should contain accurate information, and mostly productive disagreements or at least cordial ones. IMHO. Thanks again Skinner. :stoner: :stoner: :stoner:

2. Yes indeed.
 
I like that we have rules for juries and no one knows who is on the juries or who was alerted on

I've noticed that when I serve on a DUmmy jury I'm no longer informed on the final verdict. This is upsetting.

4. The primaries aren't over on my facebook page
 
I have a small handful of friends who are - I have no better way to put it - :bird:. Total "punish the Democrats for rigging the primary for Hillary (who is a complete NAZI and it was rigged because I say so), with Trump" types.  :mental: :mental: :mental:

It's amazing to say, but the DU is better than Facebook now.  :stoner: :stoner: two bongs

12. with all due respect...
 
If you suggest change to the party, you WILL get pushback. It goes with the territory. No matter how well thought out and constructive. You need a thick skin to do it, IMHO. People on DU who have zero digital tact tend not to fare well. At any rate, all the best to you

9. It's better. The worst disrupters are gone and obvious flame bait is now recognized
 
But there's still too much hive-mind. Too many purity police. We're the big tent party - unfortunately too many here have forgotten that


Right you are DUmmy.

Sucking up to Skinner, doesn't take away from the fact you are still certified loony bin material.    :mental:

Everybody who had deviant thoughts has been banned and since the fat witch in the pantsuit lost, you don't have anything to talk about except how much you all hate Trump and anyone who voted for him.  No wonder things are going all kumbaya.  For now.

Yeah, it's a very incomplete list. My excuse is that I was insufficiently caffeinated when I posted that.
