I DID NOT just make a donation to Democratic Underground.

[Avalux]

And I urge everyone here - whatever you do - DO NOT make a donation. After 7 years, more than 120K members and more than 37 million posts, no one would miss DU if it didn't exist anymore, so why bother? It's not as if any of us look forward to engaging in debate with our fellow Democrats (even if it gets tenacious).

Also, I will not thank Skinner, EarlG, and Elad for being the absolute worst Administrators of any message board anywhere.

And the moderators - what a sorry bunch. Who on earth would dedicate so much of their time without pay to keep this place running except people who do not care one bit about the Democratic Party?

So who else will join me in NOT DONATING to DU????

;) :D :kick: :toast: :applause: :woohoo:

1. Dude, you had me for a minute there! Good one.

[MaineDem]

2. I didn't donate yesterday

Because despite all the internecine fighting, I don't get anything out of the discussion here.

I don't find this the best site on the web.

And I don't want to thank Skinner, Elad, and EarlG, plus all the mods for all they do.

:kick:

[Avalux]

3. That's the spirit!

:hi:

[purji]

4. Damn I screwed up and did donate.

my reading comprehension is off today.

[Avalux]

6. You idiot.

Now why on earth would you do that? :D :hi:

[LowerManhattanite]

5. I didn't donate either!...

I hacked in and JPEG'ed a star in to fool everyone!

F' the man! :)

[Avalux]

7. Oooooo

You're a badass with a stolen star! :hi:

[Tribetime]

8. I made it a point also not to donate twice this week

I only spend 2-3 hrs a day here cause I love pain.

[Avalux]

9. You are the worst kind of member.

Not making a donation TWICE. ;-)

[lumberjack_jeff]

10. Here I sit, chained to my chair...

... eyes propped open "clockwork orange" style. Forced to endure countless hours of confusing and frustrating dialog.

And now you tell me that I have the option of not donating? How could it be? Surely I'm not here of my own free will!

... but if I were to donate, (and I didn't donate yesterday afternoon, so stop saying that!) it'd be to punch those big dumb poopy-heads in the noses. All of 'em except Earlg - because the top 10 is funny.

What we need is for those big dumb poopyhead admins to open the hate mailbag as a reminder of who the bad guys are.

[Avalux]

13. Oh yes - hate mailbag!

We do need a reminder don't we? I admire your lack of dedication lumbjack_jeff. :hi:

11. Are you Bizarro Sparosnare?

[Avalux]

14. If it will keep you from donating, yes.

;)

[marions ghost]

12. I didn't either

and nobody else should either, esp people who spend a LOT of time here (and u know who u are).

:toast:

[Career Prole]

15. Ain't neithuh.

:kick:

[Lone_Star_Dem]

16. I will not donate tomorrow as I had planned

I will turn my back on DU as it's no longer of interest to me. In fact I'm not even reading DU anymore. This is a bot posting under my moniker.

[Avalux]

18. How inventive!

You send a bot to do your dirty work. Where is grovel bot anyway??

[redqueen]

17. I already DID NOT donate... the day Skinner posted his "worst drive ever" thread.

:D

[Avalux]

20. A great way to show your non-support.

:applause:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

19. I did not ask anybody to donate for me...

so I could get keep my star that's about to expire.

I certainly didn't.

That'd be beneath me.

[Avalux]

22. I'm glad you didn't.

And if no one did yet, don't ask me to do it. ;-)

[shadowknows69]

21. Of course you didn't sweetie

[Avalux]

23. Only my grandmother and Obama are allowed to call me sweetie!

:hide:

[CaptJasHook]

24. DU Sucks so much I am going to stay around just to see how much

more it can suck. I already donated to continue its sucky angry presence and will do so again if asked.

I am a self-loathing masochist, it is all I can do not to buy another computer so I can read 2 or 4 sucky DU posts at the same time and feel the outrage.....

:toast:

[Avalux]

26. It's the worst site on the internets!

:toast:

[RichardRay]

25. I didn't donate this month, and I will not donate in any month,

month after month.

I will never post again in Democratic Underground. I am will not vote for the Democratic nominee. I will not go outside and have lunch sitting in the sun watching the cloud shadows move over the Tetons.

I won't, I tell you, I just won't...

[Avalux]

27. Your negativity is inspiring.

I'm sure it would be torturous to eat lunch outside in view of the Tetons. How can you even stand it?

[RichardRay]

28. A will of iron. n/t

[Soylent Brice]

29. if not donating is wrong...

then i don't wann feel right...

[Avalux]

30. That's what I like to hear!

Excellent use of lyrics! :applause:

[Avalux]

31. This is NOT a shameless kick.

:kick:

[AngryOldDem]

32. I didn't not just donate not a minute ago.

:)
