I miss the DU2 thing where you could see

[AtheistCrusader]

how many people have you on ignore.

What the fuck am I supposed to use for a high score?

1. It was on DU3 for a while too.

But no more. I miss it as well. So much for transparency.

[AtheistCrusader]

2. I didn't know DU3 could do that. I HAVE noticed that the

'odds of serving on a jury' explanation tells you how many hides someone has, even if the transparency page doesn't display it because its less than 5.

3. Its nice when they let you know they are putting you on ignore

Though I do maintain that the moment you say something along the lines of:

"I don't give a fuck what your expert claims..."

You lost the argument

4. LOL!!!

5. I view that as 'taking your toys and going home'.

It's a cheap exit from any debate, and I tend to take a fairly negative view of people who do it.

6. by the way hepc is not "strictly blood borne".

It is mostly acquired through needle re-use, but it can also be spread in other ways. Magical didn't even get that part right. Hepc is a pretty good parallel for how misplaced the panic is.

9. Classic! n/t

11. that thread was painful.

They do realize that they are talking smack to a virus, right?

[AlbertCat]

12. That thread is hysterical...in all of the word's senses!

I especially love the "one person is an epidemic" posts.

7. I miss the DU2 thing where we all weren't a bunch of post nannies alerting on each other

and trying to get our enemies on a forced time out.

I also miss meta here on DU3 which at least provided a decent outlet for discussing just how royally fucked up the jury system is. Then again DU3 is all about transparency, which is why just about everything transparent about DU3 has been shit-canned.

[AtheistCrusader]

8. Meta was great.

I think that losing it was the main thing that "makes DU suck" to paraphrase some juries I've served on.

It was a stress relief.

10. LOL

So fuckin' true.
