PSA. REPUB primary stuff gets posted in GD. GDP is for DEMOCRATIC primary stuff.

Last night Hosts locked 18 threads in GDP that were about the Republican Primary for being in the wrong forum. To avoid hurt feelings about threads being locked, and to avoid overworking DUers who volunteer as Hosts, please read the following notice and do the best you can to post in the right forum. This notice shows up during the posting a new thread process in GD and GDP.

GDP is for DEMOCRATIC primary stuff. GD is for the remainder, including REPUBLICAN primary stuff, policies and other stuff.


...............................

Are you posting something about the Democratic presidential primaries?

New discussion threads about the Democratic primaries must be posted in the General Discussion: Primaries forum. All other threads may be posted in the General Discussion forum (please be aware that there are certain other restrictions on what can be posted in the General Discussion forum).

My post is related to the Democratic primaries. Post in:.........My post is about something else. Post in:
General Discussion: Primaries............................................General Discussion



GDP is for DEMOCRATIC primary stuff. GD is for the remainder, including Republican primary stuff.

For those with blurry vision look closely I said "meta" not "metal".

However, I think we might need to repost a reminder when the debates and primary elections occur. The electroshock impulses to the people violating the SOP isn't working effectively. I'm kidding, folks!

The division is not intuitive, and the "STOP" screen doesn't seem to be very effective.
