The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support Forumslounge host openings
hey all,
there are 4 slots open and I think a couple more open up today
the lounge is pretty easy to host - there are hardly ever any alerts and if you haven't hosted yet it gives you access to the host forum so you can check out how that part of DU works.
click on the "about this forum" button and scroll down to "apply"
I would, but no more star.
Holy smokes! I signed up anyway, and I think I'm in!
yes the need to have a star (and no hidden posts) seems to have not been programmed, I have a hidden post and discussed it in the host forum and several hosts (at least in the lounge - I hadn't noticed in other forums) have been/were starless.

I'm figuring this is the easiest place of all to host.
edited to add --- Thank you for your kind welcome.

(17,340 posts)The less time I spend on DU the better my blood pressure is.
And I don't think I have the necessary temperament to host.
My sense of snark and lack of patience would do me in. I think to be a host one probably has to have the ability to suffer fools to an extent.
I don't suffer fools gladly.

Why you gotta be that way.

That's right.

(24,159 posts)Assuming, of course, that Lounge hosts have anything even remotely resembling power around here.
If I had known you were still around Java boy I would not have quit as host. I would have banned you from the lounge so fast, you'd HAVE to join FB to snark at us.

Now you say the "superpower" promise is just a ruse to make us read copycat threads and look at pics of LOLcats?

Your services as thread killer are not needed.
Note my siggy line.
