I can't get into the archives. |
|
I wanted to read back and see what all the ruckus was about this past weekend, since I was gone all weekend.
Can't get into the friggin' archives. Are we at Defcon 2 or something?

1. Huh-uh. You can only get to the archives by searching. |
|
I asked the admins when ATA was still up; Skinner said that the archives had just gotten too huge and it was too much of a burden on the server.

2. From what I can determine - |
|
"The Princess" made a bunch of people mad, and violated the rules. She was banned. "Sniffa" repeatedly violated the rules - after, we're told, many warnings. He was banned.
Lots of people became very angry because Sniffa was banned and started raising a stink. Other people mentioned somewhere that the lounge was getting difficult to take with it's "cliquishness" and rudeness. That set off a huge round of cliquishness and rudeness.
Skinner got pissed off and washed his hands of us for the weekend. He left up a BIG post (probably somewhere not too far back) and instructed the mods not to touch it - so lots of people voiced their opinions in a manner they normally wouldn't get away with.
As of today, it seems the focus is off Sniffa being banned, and on overall rudeness in general - with some saying the rudeness has overtaken the lounge and others saying those who see rudeness are suffering from mental deficiencies and inferiority complexes.
That's pretty much it, in a nutshell.

9. Here's CO Liberal's goodbye thread that was the beginning of the end |

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=3232597The Princess' thread replying to it http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=3238986I think the one that got sniffa banned is deleted. I'm able to search the archives. It was a little slow at first but then kicked in. You may want to try again, there are more threads on this if you care to read them. I'm just glad I missed majority of it, myself.
