Should we start using "alert" and asking the Mods to move the "Obama Only" posts to the BOB group? |
|
Or even some of the "flame-bate" Anti-Hillary post too, should we start using the Alert button to get some of those move to the Obama Group?
I just checked, and we have about 5 times as many "active" threads in the Hillary Group as they have in the Obama Group. And by "active" I mean, threads that have been started or responded to today.
We have a full page and a third of "active" threads right now, the Obama group has less that 1/4 of a page of "active" threads.
Looks to me like most of the really insulting and deliberately infuriating Anti-Hillary posts are being posted just to piss us off and take up our time with defensive replies. Most of those, I think, should either be locked or moved to the Obama group, but that's just my opinion.
Any thoughts?:shrug:

1. The only problem with that is not all members can post in the DU Groups |
|
You need to have a gold star to do that.

3. So be it, it's usually the people less than 100 posts and no Gold Star who are... |
|
...causing most of the trouble, which isn't right either.
I think, if they want to come here and post some of the vial stuff they post, they should at least give $10 bucks for the privilege, right?:shrug:
See, the problem is, these sub-100 rabid Obama supporters, I'd be willing to bet, are driving away a lot of the Hillary supporters who just don't want to deal with them and who ar not enjoying DU anymore, or at least right now.
I know I, personally, LOVED coming here for years, but now it almost feels like a job or an obligation to log on now and "show the colors," if you will.
Btw, just to be clear, I'm talking colors as in "Color Guard" not colors as in racism.

In doing so, they're giving the admins their personal info.

is that even if you alert on them or ask the mods to move them, nothing will be done...That's just the way it is around here anymore....The more Hillary hate the better. Sad but seemingly true. :(

I am at the point where I believe the mods wouldn't piss on us if we were on fire. They hate us.

9. Ever notice that anti Hillary threads always make it to the greatest page before locking? |
|
If, they even do get locked.
