Unfortunately when a post is made in such rooms, it shows up on Latest Threads.
Be sure to note which room you are entering so as not to go there if it will cause you to be upset.

I post there so I don't have to deal with those who would like to pose a threat as to "throwing down the gloves."

Its a Private Group. If what is posted there bothers you and you are upset that you can't go in and disrupt then I suggest you should take the matter of Private Rooms up with the Admins.

Trust me here, we post in Private Rooms not to piss anyone off & taunt with Headlines. Its not intentional & I don't know anyone who would even think of doing that in the Hillary Room. We are fine & happy without any disruptors.
If we wanted a debate, we would post in GD.

If you want to get a poster's attention, who is enjoying the fellow debate among roommates in a Private Room, and your intent is to get them to come into GD to throw down the gloves then by all means State your case & call us out & I am sure someone will be happy to respond.

No one is intentionally hiding out nor taunting you.
Its a Private Group for a reason.

Perhaps you could start your own Group.
Might be good for you..for what ever you need.
There are many forums & groups to visit here on DU.
Everything from Politics to Anger Management to Spiritual Healing to E Cigs, (I think).
Have a look around.
You should find like minds to enjoy your time with here on DU.

Best I can help you out with.
