1. We've all had our threads locked at some point. No big deal. |

2. I think he should cough up the 10 bucks if he wants to post here.. |
|
I understand the frustration. I have been tempted not to donate because GD and GDP are infested with disruptors. However,people like grantcart,prosense, etc. post articles and information that I would probably miss if I quit. I'll pay 10 bucks to post in forums like this one and AAIG.

3. I'm inclined to agree, and yet |
|
It feels like tacit consent to keep giving money to a group that allegedly supports Democrats but doesn't enforce its own rules to do so. And I've donated annually since 2004.

14. It really does feel that way. We shouldn't have to post here in |
|
order to have normal discussions. Criticism and disagreements are fine, but being called the same names a tea bagger would call me is a bit much!

15. A bit much is an understatement. |
|
They use the stupid and bankrupt "conservative" tactic of changing the subject from whatever it is to the subject of you. They do the same exact projection tactic. They're way over the top aggressive and the worst thing about is that if you dare to try to reason with them and find common ground they use that against you--just like "conservatives."
Like I said, WTF?

4. So it's "flamebait" in |

I say come on in, Cary.

5. Has anyone contacted the moderators about the way the site is being run? |
|
that's what they say to do when locking the thread. That might be the thing to do. The Admins in fact could be getting a lot of emails. They are letting the progressives really attack the Democrats. The rules say they can work toward common goals or something like that - I didn't read them as allowing out and out attack.

6. It's funny because when they lock my threads they always say. . . |
|
to contact the administrators if I have an issue. I contact the administrators and hear only crickets.
WTF?

to DU bc of all the cyberbuds here I've learned to repect over the years who are fighting the good fight..and this will pass in some way shape or form.
Fortunately, they're too numerous to mention..and this forum has turned out to be another silver lining.
Our country and Pres Obama are going through big growing pains right night now but many are hangin' tough. Here's to toughness:toast:

16. That I can't agree with you on. Sorry. |

I don't think I'm ever going to understand this unless it turns out that every one of them is a Freeper disrupter. What they're doing is contrary to everything I thought we were about.
I will tell you though that you're in a better place than I am on this.
