There are some DUers saying stuff there because they can't say it here.

One poster called themselves "blue links." I'll never understand the resentment of Prosense's links. Don't click on them.

because he held up a drawing made by a child of an owl, and how that was a subliminal satanist message.

I decided there was nothing to see there. And not in the typical, "nothing to see here" way.

Things have settled down quite a bit. Many nonDUers thought it was going to be a free for all. The juries told them otherwise. There are some slow learners, but most people get it.

Like telling a poster who'd never addressed you or even started a thread, she/he "likes to get her pats on the back from the men's group, who needs their approval for worth".

I think many had the idea they could run roughshod over the same posters they try to do it to here, and are disappointed at meeting resistance. You got it handed back to you, and then some ... I haven't seen you post since.

It's like the wild west ...... only better!

One of the things the poster said was that the DU'er should be investigated for possible abuse of her own children. I was pissed off and upset when I read it and I was even more upset when the jury voted 4-3 to leave it alone. If Discussioniust is going to function like that I'm going to quit going there.
