A lot of anger lately...

I just got yelled at via mail from a member for something I didn't post.
I told the member I thought they replied to the wrong person, and they shot back screaming louder still.
I respect some for their ability to shout back and forth, but I stay out of the yelling.
Crazy daze here on DU.
I'm grateful DU has the "ignore" feature.
Sheese!

1. Geez by mail? Well I was just called an undemocrat. So I agree that the

emotional response, back-at-ya with a loud and loaded vengence is unfortunate and out of control.

Angry members are here & they don't let up either.
You wouldn't believe how long my IGNORE List is!!!

Peace anyway C Moon.

13. If you mean the reply to your post here:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251496790#post4

then that is obviously calling the DNC debate rules undemocratic, not you.

2. Lately? No this goes on forever. Since the days of DU1.

I just ignore when I want to and reply when I want to. Great system.

3. Ah..but frankly, we know you were thinking about posting that message that you didn't post.

We don't cotton to that type of thinking here, partner.

Seriously, don't take it all to heart. DU is like the ocean's waves...flowing in and out...

You should see some of the member's posts that have been hidden for almost nothing..

6. :D

4. If you get a message like that, you can alert on it.

You can also ignore that member as far as pm.

5. Thx. I didn't know that.

9. I've only had that happen once in my time here.

Almost ten years, but it only happened back during the Lounge Wars lol.

As ugly as GD can get, it was a Lounge squabble that apparently upset someone enough to send me a nasty pm.

I was actually rather amused at the time.

11. You of all people get a, "Howler"

Howler-a letter from your parents that yells at you: from Harry Potter, forget which book.

Stay calm, it is hard enough looking through your junk-mail more-or-less dealing with somebody not taking the time to look back at the original posting...

[C Moon]

15. :D Howler!

12. Hillary's people are pissed about the NYT and the email thing

Sanders & O'Malley peeps are pissed about the belated paltry slow-motion
DWS/DNC debate schedule just announced by the DNC.

Who did I leave out?

14. Reflects what we (as a country) have created outside. Things getting less comfortable. n/t

16. I've been accused of things by those who were told a lie about me to someone else.

It's too bad those accusers, who get their information second hand, don't look for the facts first.

[C Moon]

20. Oh. Maybe that's what happened.

[Iggo]

17. Meta!

[C Moon]

18. I didn't think about that. I edited the title. :)

[Iggo]

21. Nah, nah, nah! I'm all for it!

I miss Meta!
