I remember the old "Meeting Room" or whatever that was called. There used to be all kinds of arguments over astrology.

11. I never saw that before, ever on DU. Perhaps a new low?
:shrug:

I must admit I was mildly entertained by it all. I saw one thread and thought, "hey, they can't do that". Then I saw three of those threads.

19. So, I get home from a really pleasant visit with my 103 yo parishioner
who was showing me her new MP3 player and letter to the editor about the exploitation of immigrant workers, thinking "what a nice way to spend an afternoon". Then I happen upon GDP. And my pleasant day is ruined.

Until the locking and banning begins. Then I'll feel better again.

23. That does it. I'm voting for Hillack Obinton
These flame wars have generated enough heat to fuse the candidates into one indistinguishable mass.

28. Well, I for one apologize for my role in it....
I was honestly just trying to come up with a more civil way of handling these posters, other than starting the call-out threads.

Sorry if I stirred up any discord.

29. KennedyGuy called Midlodemocrat a "moronic asshat"
Edited on Fri Feb-01-08 07:04 PM by theredpen
Thems fightin' words!


P.S. And I have to take a potshot at KennedyGuy's profile: "Comment: knock comic collecting all you like..have you any idea what Spider-Man #1 is worth?" Not enough to be worth the shame of being a comic book collector.

32. And everyone will do us a favour by not posting shit in there, please
Keep the comedy in the Lounge - you just get alerted on in GDP, which slows down dealing with the real crap there.

34. What, exactly, is meant by this little statement...
"Why do Obama supporters turn this into the "DU Lounge" when certain topics don't go their way?"

I mean, they say that like it's a bad thing. Not to mention the Lounge being NOTHING like that place!!
