(135,425 posts)Where it was said, when it was said, the whole flavor of that ungodly mess. You also didn't reveal the apology--which people can take or leave--and you are presenting the issue as a hypothetical, not as an actual statement by a real live DUer (who has been in the news way too much lately, IMO).
Now, I would have to say that failure to reveal these key aspects is somewhat less than "plainspoken."
When will the "Ah Ha! Reveal!!" follow?
No one is trying to prevent you from having a discussion with your community--certainly not me. Discuss away! Please! But I think you need to be honest in your discussions. You think you're the only person in the world who cares about members of your community? I don't like seeing good and fair people dragged into imbroglios without full information. Why is that so wrong or bad?
The nice thing about DU3 is that we can SEE hidden "juried" threads with just one little click. Nothing is truly hidden, anymore. So link, already--it's two clicks instead of one. Let people judge for themselves--don't tell smart people what to think, let them think for themselves with full information.
