In case you didn't know.....

You may not be able to post comments on hidden threads,

but thank Baal you can at least see and read them


AND


you may still recommend them.

Wouldn't it be ironic if a hidden post ended up on the Greatest Page?

1. They already have

When Miss Prunella* got a Rude Pundit post hidden, it had well over 100 recs after the hide.

*Miss Prunella can be either sex but has a distinctly constipated take on language.

2. So you want yo have a post that was hidden 6-1 on the greatest page

either that or you want a post that reprinted exactly the same idiocies on the greatest page.

Wow! what does it take to have you realise that such stuff is not acceptable on DU?

[mr blur]

3. It seems that we all missed the election where you were appointed Officer In Charge

of all that is right and acceptable on DU.

What does that make you now, Bosun? Second Mate?

[intaglio]

5. Oh, silly child! you can alert on posts as well

Who makes you Bosun or Second Mate?

Now as you cannot seem to grasp the simple logic of a hide the offensive post was hidden 6 - 1 and I did not get a vote. The post was offensive and would have been hidden in whatever group or forum in which it was posted.

7. I'm neither "Bosun or Second Mate", but then I don't belong on the yacht.

That seems to be your ambition.

8. The post was offensive

Not to me.

I wonder what the vote woulda been had 12....20.....35 people voted for or against.

I wonder when people will stop being so sensitive? You'd think they were children!

4. Are you the fourth new host? That's awesome

I must have missed the nomination period.

[intaglio]

6. Nope, like you I can alert on posts. It is not the job of a host to alert on posts

Now it seems to have escaped your notice but your post was hidden, not burnt, not deleted but hidden, emphatically 6 -1. Now unless you are accusing me of fixing a jury this means that your post was offensive twaddle worthy of a hide.

9. I've seen many actually offencive posts left to stand

The juries here are notoriously bad, with many people just not getting the whole point of the system.
