My Last Political Post in DU is an Apology to All of You.here in GD.


As you can see from the number of post I am new to this political forum. I have been informed by Synnical that I have posted too much. For that I am sorry. We cannot afford to offend anyone these days. With this apology I shall promise to forego further post. I shall go back to reading only the post of you wonderful rebels. Again I am sorry I abused this medium that is so needed in a day where our voice is stilled.

1. When was Synnical appointed as post counter?
It's late. Why not sleep on it? :)

13. Exactly
If I don't want to read something I don't. And if people get upset for you posting about something than they can deal with it. I'd just take a while and go somewhere else where you can just hang out.

22. I resemble that remark!
Edited on Tue Feb-21-06 01:33 AM by Sydnie
Goodness knows, I post enough myself but I am not going to stop just because someone thinks what I post falls into the "too much" category.

DU is for brainstorming, talking things through, getting out your frustrations, networking, and posting what ever is on your mind when the need arrises.

Don't let anyone stop you from posting. Heck, If someone deosn't like it, they can always put you on ignore and their problem is solved for them.

Post on!

8. How is this political and who in the hell is Synnical?
I've never heard of posting too much at DU. Doesn't seem to me you have anything to apologize for.

9. If you stop posting now ...
... the Synnicals have won!

Honestly - don't know who 'Synnical' is, but I've been TOTALLY FLAMED here at times, and it doesn't deter me from speaking my mind (nor many others who have been argued with).

Stay, I'm beggin' ya ...

25. 'Tis true
the thread where the alleged event occured is now gone, but Synnical did call here/him out on making frequent posts. If my memory serves me correctly, there was an inference of hyperbole.

15. Do you have a link?
Edited on Tue Feb-21-06 01:28 AM by salvorhardin
PM it to me if you don't want to post it.

Synnical is a lot classier than me so I rather doubt she would be so rude.


On edit: I just did a search and don't see where she's even replied to a post of yours. Are you sure you have the right username?

16. I read a few of your posts today... DON'T STOP
Look, there are hundreds and hundreds of people that post here every day, and thousands that read what gets posted.

Don't stop adding your voice to the symphony, every voice makes us stronger.

18. I think the idea is not to post too many threads, but posting in general
is certainly not limited, as far as I can tell... The only problem with starting a lot of threads is that there are so many users, and a lot of threads end up getting lost if there are too many...

I like your threads--they're very interesting--you should not stop.

21. That would be me
And the mods deleted your posts, not me. Stop whining. Buck Up. Even many long term DU members admit that it takes, ya know, balls, to post in GD.

Sheesh. And you started many new threads in GD that were flame bait. No apologies here.
