(17,082 posts)139. HA, someone got a 24-hour lockout after reporting your post
On Wed May 13, 2015, 06:46 PM an alert was sent on the following post:
She, I'm so sorry you got locked out of your thread. You were stalked, baited, and ultimately....

REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Personal attack on cui bono, a good, longtime DUer. The attacks here are dragging this place down.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed May 13, 2015, 07:03 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I'm not seeing the problem. *shrug*
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I wouldn't have a problem with hiding this whole OP but this particular post, although paranoid (sometimes people post something that not many don't agree with - that's not stalking or baiting), doesn't seem to violate any TOS. I don't see a personal attack. I had to read through the thread to even understand what the alerter was talking about.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If this is what qualifies for inappropriate these days then maybe I'm just in the wrong place. Please people.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This alert sounds like a personal vendetta and just a way to silence people by abusing the jury system. Just the other day I saw the same thing on a jury result that was posted in the thread, and one juror admitted to "researching" the poster rather than judging on the post before them. Alerter should be reported to Admin for this abuse of the jury system. Leave it alone.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

So the round President Obama lost today is more disrespect because he's black?

If one speaks speaks up on race, the posts are alerted. It is we who speak up who are racists! How dare we?
