53. There is nothing wrong with posting about JPR. They can alert and do on virtually any post.

All they need is a jury that captures 4 like minded individuals. Many Bernie people have already been eliminated as jurors even those with low hide counts so the juries now favor them. Hopefully Skinner will fix this in the near future but I am not counting on the fixes being of any benefit to us.

What I now find interesting about the jury system dflprincess Jun 2016 #1
No, that is not the case. nt nc4bo Jun 2016 #3
You may have been removed from the jury pool because your rulings were deemed to merrily Jun 2016 #6
Maybe but I was always very even handed about it. Mbrow Jun 2016 #10
I don't know. You would have to ask in ATA. merrily Jun 2016 #12
I checked my profile dflprincess Jun 2016 #17
I don't know why you are not being called. If you are interested, you would have to ask in ATA. merrily Jun 2016 #20
I have to admit, I'm not that curious about it dflprincess Jun 2016 #21

You can. I juried a post by a poster I had on ignore in a forum I had trashed. merrily Jun 2016 #76
Do you have a lot of people on ignore? Scootaloo Jun 2016 #57
I don't know about the blacklist, but please see Reply 76. merrily Jun 2016 #77
In ATA, Skinner clarified that. DLevine Jun 2016 #62
ok that explains that, Mbrow Jun 2016 #73
Doesn't explain me either. dflprincess Jun 2016 #74
as for me - of course I can't remember them all but my last jury decision LiberalElite Jun 2016 #69
Like you I use to be called quite regularly, Mbrow Jun 2016 #7
I serve 2 or 3 times a day, and I'm not here but a couple hours a day. bahrbearian Jun 2016 #26
It's seems that quite a few Sanders supporters have been relieved of jury duty. pa28 Jun 2016 #29

I was asked nearly every day, sometimes twice arikara Jun 2016 #41
That's happened to me as well. Loudestlib Jun 2016 #46

I'm trying to recall if another opposition site was also nc4bo Jun 2016 #2
It's too late. We already know about JPL. raging moderate Jun 2016 #4
I believe I know what site you are referring to dflprincess Jun 2016 #5
I think you know too. nc4bo Jun 2016 #8
Why have you been surprised? AFAIK, nothing forbids it. I'm surprised that linking to merrily Jun 2016 #9
I've been surprised because, as I said, dflprincess Jun 2016 #19
That's different. AFAIK, JPR has never been identified here as site merrily Jun 2016 #25
are you referring to progressive independent? 2banon Jun 2016 #56
No dflprincess Jun 2016 #75
Referring to it coyly, but unmistakeably, to insult it always seemed to slip by somehow. merrily Jun 2016 #78
That's very true. dflprincess Jun 2016 #79
maybe someone tried to insult it by mentioning that it welcomed all left points of view merrily Jun 2016 #80
That could be. nt dflprincess Jun 2016 #82
Interesting, didn't know about about that site 2banon Jun 2016 #86

That 1st one you listed, that's the one. nc4bo Jun 2016 #22

AFAIK, this was the jury, with no involvement by DU ownership. merrily Jun 2016 #30
Damn that sucks. Linking to your own post at another site gets a hide. Autumn Jun 2016 #11
As you know, I am not an owner or an admin or even a mod of JPR, just a poster, as I am here. merrily Jun 2016 #15
Gulp, i referenced it today too. Oh well, I've had a few undeserving posts hdden. Live and Learn Jun 2016 #14
Oh, no. I was replying to a poster I admire greatly. There was no "getting." merrily Jun 2016 #16
Maybe they were holding a grudge over another post that they couldn't alert on. Who knows. Live and Learn Jun 2016 #18
I would eat my own pinkie off my hand if the poster I replied to was the poster who alerted on me. merrily Jun 2016 #31
I am not suggesting it was. Likely someone else that was targeting you and waiting to find some Live and Learn Jun 2016 #35
Sure. It's odd, though 9pm-ish is not usually the time window in which they are likeliest to succeed merrily Jun 2016 #37
I think we have been outnumbered for a while now. Think Bernie folks are busy working, campaigning Live and Learn Jun 2016 #38

I never know who alerts on me. Sometimes, I have suspicions, but I never really know. merrily Jun 2016 #34
I've had some stalking me too. Fuddnik Jun 2016 #45

Wow such an ugly post. I don't see how I have anything in common with someone like that. Live and Learn Jun 2016 #32

Skinner has ZERO desire to 'fix' anything that would make things fair for Bernie supporters. cui bono Jun 2016 #59
True. I saw the name calling one and was shocked even even though I was aware of his bias. Live and Learn Jun 2016 #60
The alerter tells two lies in the alert. senz Jun 2016 #52
It doesn't really matter if it is disallowed when they are allowed to alert and hide for any reason. Live and Learn Jun 2016 #61
Thank you, senz. For me, it's an issue of basic fairness. If something is forbidden, we should know merrily Jun 2016 #63
That is a bizarre hide. Are links to articles at Daily Kos against TOS? 2banon Jun 2016 #54
They are allowed. Moreover, people had Hillarysupporters.com right in their sig lines and those merrily Jun 2016 #64
I took myself off the jury system several years ago. SheilaT Jun 2016 #55
What does that alert even mean? What about Daily Kos? That's allowed here. cui bono Jun 2016 #58
I am hoping Skinner will rule, one way or the other. merrily Jun 2016 #65
I've linked to JPR many many times. I don't know if it's been alerted but it's never been locked riderinthestorm Jun 2016 #66
I have asked the admins for clarity. I will post a link to the reply, if any, in this group. merrily Jun 2016 #67
When the jackass radicals site went up, there were many links to it posted here riderinthestorm Jun 2016 #68
I guess the alert stalkers were not concerned about the posters who self-identify as Jackasses. merrily Jun 2016 #84
That's ironic - LiberalElite Jun 2016 #70
Even before Sanders ran as a Democrat, Skinner said DU would treat Sanders as a Democrat. merrily Jun 2016 #72
