Am I the only one who hasn't been "WARNED"? |
|
I'm --at last count -- the second highest posters here. In my whole time here I (think) I've NEVER had an admin warning.
Is it so hard for you all?

14. I think that it happened because I wasn't trying |
|
to have a sex thread. Who knows :shrug:
I COULD have a locked thread in 2 sec if I wanted it. ;-)

3. Only time I have had a PM or message from a moderator was... |
|
...last spring. In the fog of early morning, I posted something in GD that should have been in the Lounge. A moderator moved it and sent me a message explaining why.

Well, I did get one pre-Jan 1st. But that's b/c I used a word that I didn't know I wasn't supposed to use. (It was nick-name for Clark supporters.)
Keep in mind that I post a lot in in the I/P forum, so I have many opportunites to recieve a warning.

|
Edited on Fri Jan-30-04 12:54 PM by HereSince1628
I think it was a mistake, because I was reinstated, but I am not sure. Consequently I don't go to the gun dungeon anymore.
Mostly I believe I am very widely ignored. Those who might punch the alert on me never do because I am invisible.

Oh yeah, one time I typed sh*t in the message box and got warned.
Another time, I responded to some "freeper troll" here ...think I called him/her a troll.

In fact just before you posted this I was looking at my stuff and wondering if anyone else had no warnings. I'm just too quiet. Maybe I should yell a little more.

Part of my answer to a really unimaginative troll did, indeed, exceed the bounds of good taste. (Maybe it was the phrase "gag reflex".)
But the troll message got deleted too.

You tell it like it is........how can you be warned for telling the truth?
I have never been warned either, but only have 700 + posts.
I did have a thread locked about the Senate in session because I posted it in Breaking news.......tho others have done the same.
Keep up the good work,khephra.

...Tho I do remember alerting one of my own posts about a year ago. It was too late for me to edit it, and it was indeed a personal attack.
I DO have a tendency toward the angry outburst. If you don't believe me, it's probably because you've never made me mad. But I do try to be careful about what I post when I'm feeling pulled in the angry outburst direction.

At least in the virtual world. I don't have the mega-postings that you have khephra or GOPisEvil, but I think it is important for discourse to be civil. I love peace, here at DU, at home and in the world. If you really have to vent, maybe you shouldn't do it on-line to your fellow DU members. Take a deep breath, say it out loud a few times and just think about your humanity. People deserve respect first even if they try to antagonize you, you always have the choice to walk away.
Be the better person by not adding more anger, stress and hate in our forums and in the world. Think globally act here right on DU. You can have logical disagreements and arguments without getting ugly and personal. Just do it.

38. I get warned constantly |
|
and it always shocks the whiskers off of me because political debates are never a dainty little tea-party. So, even when Democratic candidates make mistakes, and reasonable Democrats point-out those mistakes -- sometimes colorfully -- it's unsettling to have the censors run in and cut-out your comment because they think that someone, somewhere, might be offended. Normally, when liberals gather, a diversity of opinion is encouraged. Oh well, I don't make the rules and I don't run the website, but I take a certain pride in being a marked man....shows I think for myself and I'm not afraid to colorfully express my opinion.

But only for duplicates. If I go to GD 2004, I do not attack, just make comments. I do not want to get involved in real deep discussions or attacks. It also helps that I have not made up my mind re a candidate.

Had few posts removed over the year I've been here. But I know I've managed to come to the unfavourable attention of the powers that be with regard to another poster's ongoing issues. So I'm not sure what it means that I've had no formal spankings. :shrug:
