1731. Perhaps we need new forums accessible to all
What if???

We could have safe places if we had publicly accessible forums reserved specifically for Liberal Democrats, Conservative Democrats, Progressive Democrats. And if someone gets out of hand in one of those three forums, they would be banned only from the one specific forum as opposed to the entire site.

Or possibly a change in the tombstone policy could be considered. Instead of banning someone from the entire site, perhaps they should only be banned from specific forums after a 30 day cooling off period.

Or when someone has crossed the line, we still allow them to maintain their account and PM people.

I confess, I don't feel this is a safe place to state my views any longer. And I am certain that many people who typically disagree with me feel the same way.

DU can never go back to what it once was, but that does not mean we cannot evolve.
