Group Business - Sigh... Once again, if you can

ignore and don't respond to the latest Meta screed calling out our group.

I don't want anyone to think I am telling them what to do, you will all make your own choices.

But, if you can, please think if your response will help to stop the madness or continue it.

Take care out there!

A bit disingenuous to ban someone as a zombie, claiming that they
couldn't possibly know about "the troubles" when every other thread
is about HOF.

Re-Trashed.

posted by a long banned DUer (that is if you were not among those who wisely chose to just hide/trash meta).

So, I'll echo, Boston Bean and ask that Once again, if you can,
ignore and don't respond to the latest Meta screed calling out the group.

As BB said, we don't want anyone to think we are telling you what to do, but we strongly believe that ignoring this malevolent obsession with our group is the best course of action.

to you all!

I've been away so long I didn't know what a 'meta' was, I found it though--I feel no compulsion to respond.
I think I'll get my star back. I'm enjoying DU again

having you play with us, lol. i appreciate your point of view, as you know. always have. glad you do not take outside attacks personally, but, see the lite in it. cause unfortunately, it has caused a lot of good women to walk away. that is sad that a small group feels the need to run good duers off.

rad women are . mommy, protect me from the mean wimminz.

looks like the new uproar will be all about guns (with good reason)

Perhaps they'll leave this group alone for a bit.
