I can't even link to it, that's how good it is.

3. But, how did everybody else get in?

Never mind. I figured it out.

2. Probably got help from a

4. The third hand.

I'm definitely at a disadvantage.

15. That would be my guess

5. What I can't figure out is how it was done.

Maybe it wasn't even intentional, but was caused by some kind of bug.

6. It was most definitely intentional...

7. Okay, so how did he do it?

I'm guessing that they're playing with the post request.

8. Isn't that what that thread is for? To see who can figure it out.

There are two ways that I can think of to do it - one fairly easy, the other not so much. I have no way of knowing which method NYC_SKP or -..__... used.

9. Well, he did finally reveal how he did it:

10. The metapost is childish and diminishes DU

Plus wastes time.

Many of the frequent posters do not appear to care about the quality of DU.

Wish the same effort had been made to enhance a common Democratic ethos.

13. take it to meta

[PufPuf23]

14. I think I have only made one post ever to Meta.

You make me feel so welcome here after all these years at DU.

We supposedly are on the same side here at DU when it gets to the nuts and bolts of real politik, at least during election season.

Grow up.

16. sorry, I certainly didn't mean to come off unwelcoming

I meant it as a light-hearted joke. this is the lounge, you realize that, right?

we don't have to be serious all the time - that plays to a negative stereotype of liberals
