And a row of icons show up.

The first one (IIRC) is the post count.



You have 8826!

You might want to edit or delete before one of his friends alert on you. Your post can be seen as a personal attack. I wouldn't risk it with a jury.

but I've got a dismal track record on DU3 so far. Of the three alerts I've submitted, the majority of jurors voted to leave it alone. In addition, I got a bunch of unsolicited commentary, including, 'get a life,' 'grow a thicker skin,' and one accusing me of 'cyber-stalking.' Is it any wonder I've gotten a bit trigger-shy where submitting alerts is concerned? IMO the 'jury system' stinks on ice!

give me shit for a spelling error, without comment on the post or alert. It made me laugh, but jeez, why are you on a jury? Yeah, it stinks. A lot of us are trigger-shy. Jury duty requests have dropped off the table.

I got to see the hidden reply and I thought it was hilarious and took no offense to it.

Every minute of your day is productive? If so, why ya replying and not out living your life?

Do you have a FB account perhaps?

What possible interest do you have in what people do? How is that significant to you? Insulting a DUers for participating in DU just isn't on. 12 posts a day is not all that many. I can type 12 posts easily, while browsing DU for just an hour.

Have as much of a life as you can, won't you?

I do miss the milestone threads, but 31,000 is not a real milestone. Once you get over 10,000 posts the milestones move to every 5,000 posts, same as they did for the 100s.
