But their forwards are too busy scrambling all over and slowing down to take cheap shots to even get a shot on goal. They'll need a power-play plus an empty net.

The explanation on his transparency page is consistent with my recollection that he was bounced for ONE post that was deemed to contravene the ToS. This, after more than 30,000 contributions to the board.

Meanwhile, quite a few of the new returnees, plus of course some who were amnestied and never put through FFR, have visible transparency pages. I think some of them are into the double digits on hides (just in the last 90 days).

Manny isn't the only one in his situation. I merely checked his page to confirm my guess that the reinstatement was broad but not universal.

Well, no criticism of you, at any rate. I just took the occasion of your post to vent an idea I've had: that, perhaps soon or perhaps after the convention, the admins should extend the amnesty to some of the Bernie supporters who've been PPR'd. I've been thinking I might post in ATA or privately email Skinner, but maybe we should do something more organized, like a poll in this group? I'd be fine with putting in GD: P but it might be considered off-topic there.

On Tue May 24, 2016, 09:19 AM an alert was sent on the following post:

bravenak? You've got to be kidding?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1280&pid=201306

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Personal attack. No reason to make people feel unwelcome here.

JURY RESULTS

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue May 24, 2016, 09:25 AM, and the Jury voted 5-2 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: An unnecessary and over the top personal attack.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Personal attack. Give me a break!
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: bravenak has EIGHT hides still visible on her transparency page and was well into the double digits when PPRd. If the alerter is really worried about people that make DU unwelcoming, they might want to aim that elsewhere.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
