In reply to the discussion: I'm sorry, but this group is abusing it's "privilege". [View all]boston bean
(36,622 posts)most of the time they are left by juries and rarely locked by any host.
Again, this group will be run like the rest of DU with the rules that DU has in place at this time. The community will decide.
If someone wants to take a chance with a call out thread here, they are risking a hide.
I won't be changing anything in the SOP. And this group is for likeminded people, so if someone were to come in here and disrupt and if their post is not hidden by a jury, I will lock it myself, and/or probably block the person.
I'm not going to make the rules here different than they are for everyone else on DU.
In actuality, this OP that we are typing in is a call out thread.
I don't like callouts, I've been victimized by them and they are allowed to stand. This type of things does lower us all, but hell, I'm not going to tie any member of this groups hands make them stay silent in the face of attacks. Also, I'm not going to get into a game with what is a call out and what is not. Many posts in here are about posts we see as sexist or misogynistic. That is absolute fair game for this group. HoF and its members are called out constantly in GD. I don't see you or violet asking that it not be done. Why the double standard?
If DU decides with community standards that they don't want call outs and they are started to be hidden or locked on a consistent basis, then this is back up for discussion.
