1. I think it would be better to direct this to the Ask the Admins.
Otherwise, it could be seen as a call-out.

5. I concur, but...
What I'm suggesting would require a major overhaul of the board's architecture.

I prefer a more direct approach.

7. The most direct, and effective, approach is with the Adminstrators.

8. Yes, imagine a privately owned message board being consistently run by its own rules.
Who would have thunk it? :shrug:

11. A George Carlin video about ruling economic elites?
...has to go to "Ask the Admins." Really?

12. It's not about the video itself.
But any question that calls out decisions made by the moderators or the administrators would be better asked in that forum.

That is what it is for.

13. What decision does it possibly call out? It's a critique of American economic realities.

15. You're missing my point.
The question is not about whatever the video is about.

He was upset that any video, once posted here, cannot be posted again, ever.

By posting that video again is apparently against DU rules. And this is why I said he would do well to post his question in the Ask the Admins forum.

16. Oh -- well, people re-post news items in different forums, at different times
Why not re-post video links in different forums, when warranted?

17. Oh, of course, I agree...
But apparently the Admins and moderators do not...

9. Yes, we post here in the kingdom of a benign and benevolent dictatorship.
Of course we are free to emigrate to another kingdom.

6. Too bad that doesn't go for the regular threads that get posted over and over again.
Evidently not all good citizens check for duplicates, but they could respond to the thread and kick it to the top of its forum. That way it can get seen and read again.

It's rocket science, pure rocket science.

10. Thank you!
That was fantastic.

He really says it like it is.

I did recommend, but it didn't show.....yet.
