2. and Meta gone!
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

OH, NO!! The supersecret, moonbats-only meta forum?

Unsurprisingly, Skimmer and Lord Marblehead gave no warning or explanation.

As always, the DUmp's administrators treat their DUmpmonkeys with contempt.

(Inexplicably, the Old DUmp is still alive, with a single DUmmy posting junk for himself to read.)

Thought I got zotted.
Ok, that's funny.   :rotf:

For a brief moment there I thought I was a victim of 'whack a mole.'  What a relief.

On edit:  Just read several of the 'ask the admins' posts, and it looks like it will be as much fun as meta was.  First they must get past the groveling and fawning about what a great idea it was to change things.

I was in meta and clicked on a link and got a stupid message about the thread not existing or something and thought I'd been banned.  :rant:

Left without proper parenting in Meta, liberals prove everything conservatives say about them and their inability to live day-to-day without some type of governing body to tell them what to do.  Skins, we could have told you that you'd have to bring back ATA.  Your children needed you.

What is the difference really between Meta and ask the admins?
They both serve the same purpose DUmmies post their gripes there and $kimmer ignores them.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Take a lesson from this DUmbasses.

The moment your useless mewling becomes annoying to your dear leaders they will shut you up.

If you ever got the government you crave the first time you try to beg off your work assignment you would find the free healthcare you are entitled to would have you walk in and be wheeled out.

So, it seems that DU unilaterally flushed a forum, and all the posts contained within. I get the impression Skins&Co realized that the secret room inside the asylum where they hid the posts that were too crazy for the general public turned out to be nothing more but an endless source of embarrassment.  Too bad.

Meta ll beta, is on the way.
Picture ID and personal information required.
The cat/hen fights started by moles, has overwhelmed the system.
A new and improved MIRT will be seated, and minimum posts enforced.

I'm rather pleased how well the ParGen has worked over the past year or so. Minor overheat problems, easily overcome.
It's been making some rather disturbing noises lately and I had considered a maintenance shutdown.
The Meta closure may give us time to re-tool and re-wire for the next spate of DUmmie hatred.
Skimmer is da manettte. You go, boy.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

So sad, yet utterly predictable.  They can't even be civil to their own fellow travelers. Heh.
