Reply #13: DU Ain't What She Used To Be

[KharmaTrain]

A year ago, this place was growing and hopping and getting a good share of mention across the net and even into the corporate media. These days I rarely hear DU mentioned...and not anywhere near I do other sites such as Kos, Atrios and Talking Points.

Several acquaintances I made here...former DU members and posters from a year ago no longer come here. Some got into flame wars, others found the fighting here to be a big turn off and have moved to those blogs and other message boards. What you see here is what you get.

I enjoy having discussions with Conservatives and Repugnicans...and I do so in other places...and can spot the buzzwords and trolls here quite easily these days, but that's to be expected. There are DU'ers who troll Freeperland and other right wing sites. Kinda what makes this wild world fun.
