Can I be targeted?

[trumad]

I feel so left out.

Should I just post an Op saying. "I am told I am being targeted?"

Will that suffice---I mean I have no proof that I am---but I do have a sneaky suspicion that maybe I am.

That would be so cool to be targeted.

((((((((((BREAKING NEWS!)))))))))))))))

I just received information from an unnamed source confirming that indeed I am being targeted! This appears credible.

[polly7]

1. Has anyone told you you were being targeted? nt.

[trumad]

3. Just a suspicion.

No proof---just a suspicion.

[polly7]

5. Then you're probably not.

And why would it be cool? Cali was targeted, she's alert stalked on every post she makes, I imagine, and can't post again for awhile. You had a whole group (actually, it consisted of all those over there - what a coinky-dink!) sympathizing when you were out, it's supposed to be different for anyone else though?

[riversedge]

46. just the Terminator!

[demmiblue]

2. Making fun of Omaha Steve... classy. n/t

[trumad]

7. Huh?

Nope---I stand with OS. I want to be targeted just like him.

I just have no proof that I am being targeted.

[Gothmog]

37. You are showing moral support

[notadmblnd]

55. well then, you probably haven't said the wrong thing in the right manner

nt

[magical thyme]

4. happy to oblige, but you'll have to change your name

to Hal...

[Rex]

6. Maybe you should go into deep cover like you did at FR.

That was funny as hell when you did that.

[trumad]

9. Haven't done that for a while.

I'm sure I'll find plenty of material--- lot's of Hillary haters there.

[Rex]

10. Lots? If you find a non hater let us know.

We would need to have it on record.

[Sheepshank]

64. Seriously, why take the time to go all the way over there to find Hillary haters? nt

[JonathanRackham]

8. They have a store for that.

Not Walmart either.

[Rex]

12. Target?

[JonathanRackham]

16. We have a winner!!!

Ding ding ding.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

11. What is the point of this OP? nt

[trumad]

15. Concern targeting.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

21. Ok, then. Turn around and bend over...

[trumad]

24. Ouch!

[Blue_Adept]

13. Jury Results

On Thu Nov 19, 2015, 08:40 AM an alert was sent on the following post:

Can I be targeted?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027361591

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

If the hosts are not going to shut down all these meta threads (from both "sides&quot , perhaps a jury will do it. It violates SOP, but it is also "disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate."

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Nov 19, 2015, 08:43 AM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Yeah, plus I didn't think copycat threads were a thing in GD. And, hey, if you don't what the crap you are doing your little Clinton website being brought here, the answer would be to, I don't know, maybe stop doing that crap. I realize certain rooms are now hidden which only really confirms that what is being done there doesn't want to be seen.

Rather than do this passive-aggressive stuff, how about you denounce the bad stuff that's being done on other sites for those you support. You know, just like you always say Sanders supporters don't do.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I thought I heard a waahmbulance.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I'm not the jury member you're looking for. Good luck, maybe your frivolous alert will be successful.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This whole thread is silly but not worth alerting on.

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

[trumad]

32. See---I knew I was being targeted.

Be afraid---Be very afraid!

[Gothmog]

36. It appears that you are correct

[SunSeeker]

50. Dayum! You aren't paranoid if people really are out to get you.

[hobbit709]

61. Even paranoids have real enemies.

[CoffeeCat]

14. I'll target you...

...for a complete psychoanalytic work up--because you support a Democratic candidate who is a blazing neocon and a Wall Street toe sucker.

I accept group insurance.

[JackInGreen]

27. "Wall street toe sucker"

You're SO lucky I've got an otter box on my phone.

[JackInGreen]

17. You already have been

Eyes up spud

[snooper2]

18. You usually don't need any help with vacations so it wouldn't be that productive

[drray23]

19. so maybe i dont understand how the site works

After all i have less than a 1000 post so i cant sit on MIRT.

I was under the impression that even if you can alert on somebody's post you can not control who is going to be on that jury.

Why do I see people complaining about being hunted and having juries rigged with Bernie or Hillary supporters .

How is that possible ?

[ScreamingMeemie]

25. They take their chances, setting up multiple alerts every day. Many times, they get a 0-7 leave.

Other times, they get lucky and posts are hidden.

For a long time, I thought it was a pantload, and then with recent posts and links back to another site (and subsequent alerts on the posts that linked back to another site) proving the picking out and alert targeting other DUers, I don't believe it's a pantload any more. What's really sick is that I genuinely liked and respected more than a couple of the members of that site.

that's how it's "possible." And here is my hope that your concern is genuine.

[Hortensis]

47. Well, you might want to watch out that you don't

make the same mistake all over again -- I.e., find yourself believing and supporting people who lack probity.

[ScreamingMeemie]

48. I've done it often before, and I'll do it often in the time I have left.

I wish I was perfect.

[Hortensis]

60. What's wrong with trying NOT to fall in a hole at your feet?

[upaloopa]

51. I know you'll never believe me but

people are making up shit about a site they know nothing about other than a grab from 3 months ago.
I am learning a lot about human nature and group think with all this.

[ScreamingMeemie]

53. My lying eyes saw a post from the end of September. I'm going to believe my lying

eyes. I don't mean to offend you, but I'm not so very stupid. People have taken an Internet discussion board too far. That's what I'm learning. I'm also learning that the major supporters of both candidates need to take a breath.

[upaloopa]

54. All that shit in OS's thread is slighting a bunch

Of people who have absolutely no intention of stalking or alerting people. You all are building a fucking mountain out of a screen shot from 3 months ago and claiming it represents people who weren't ever at that site then.
But I am getting an education on how mob think happens.
That's got to be worth something

[ScreamingMeemie]

57. I don't spend much time here to be part of a "mob." You must have

me confused with someone else. September to October is 1 month. October to November is 2 months. I'm sorry, but from outside of whatever y'all have going on with each other, those posts were disgusting, and it's not a group I would ever defend. Yell if it makes you feel better, but I've built nothing. Only given y'all my opinion. Thank you for realizing that and taking your anger elsewhere.

Again, Disclaimer: I participate in neither the Hillary group, the Bernie group or the collective cesspool (GD: P)

[Rex]

56. I hear that, I guess my eyes do lie to me at times...but a collective hallucination?

And so far, the site creator nor any of the members there have said the screenshots are fakes or photoshopped. Silence speaks volumes imo.

[ScreamingMeemie]

58. I agree. And I'm not even involved with what seems to be a lot of backstory here.

[hobbit709]

62. And the fact that the site hid behind a wall after it came out what they were doing.

[Rex]

63. Yeah that kinda makes them look guilty of something.

I cannot believe it is so bad that posters are going off site to vent about each other.

[jeff47]

28. In addition to Meemie's response

The other half of targeting is having your group of people logged in before sending the alerts. That makes it more likely that an alert will have several of your group on the jury.

[Sheepshank]

66. is that how you guys are doing it?

or does it really matter since Bernie supporters are a 80% majority here?

[jeff47]

68. Nah, we don't need to conspire. You guys get offensive all on your own. (nt)

[Sheepshank]

69. when you and your group call out real names, and that call out survives an alert

you cannot tell me that you have any nobility left amongst Bernie supporter...not at all.

filthy and disgusting

[Tipperary]

20. Too funny.

[Dr. Strange]

22. I think joeybee12 is targeting you.

But he has you on Ignore, so he can't find any of your posts to alert on.

[William769]

23. ROFLMFAO!

[ChisolmTrailDem]

26. What the hell are you laffing and clapping about?

[William769]

29. ...

[truebrit71]

35. I know, right? Your off-site group only targets Bernie supporters...

So Trumad's point would be moot...

That's what makes it so funny, right?

[mopinko]

30. seems juror #2 has some credible evidence for you.

funny i dont even post that much any more, but i still have my fans in low places.
i live in fear.

[Rex]

31. Is your name Sarah Connor?

[Ellipsis]

33. I feel a long winter coming...

ç

[prayin4rain]

34. Seriously. The self aggrandizement of some people on this board is comical. n/t

[Shandris]

38. Okay, fine, fine! TARGET ACQUIR...*brzt!*...*KLANG!*...

...

Well, so much for that idea. My terminator broke down.

Better luck next time, but how about a post boost to help you get upwards of that 360+ thread opposite ya, eh?

[panader0]

39. Why would you be? Aren't you a member of that "other site"?

[KamaAina]

40. Probably not.

Your avvie should serve as a protective shield.

[Iggo]

41. You mean you ain't already?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

42. it's always someone else's fault. never the fault of the person repeatedly pissing people off

and violating rules. never.

[trumad]

44. Oh no..

It's absolutely my fault.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

45. i was just making a general comment on this thread and the one on being suspended

abrasiveness and deliberating antagonizing people has an associated cost in all societies and du is micro-society.

EDIT: i'm not sure what this drama is about, I'm making comments on the general persecution complex + getting thrown off du for no fault of my own complex.

I'm not even sure that you are referring to yourself, or mocking someone doing the same

[Capt. Obvious]

43. Surely no one would target the paper tiger

[SunSeeker]

49. LOL

[nenagh]

52. trumad...

I think you are better than this...

[msanthrope]

67. Oh hell.....some posts are just too easy......nt

[betsuni]

59. Ah! So you have found out about the Trumad Cave.

I must alert the others, we must quickly hide from prying eyes the hundreds of posts detailing our diabolical conspiracies to silence and destroy you. Who has revealed the secret? Never mind. They will be found and punished without mercy, as is our way. But i have said too much already. You will remember nothing, I now say.

[Sheepshank]

65. wow...who the fuckety fuck is fucking with you now?

let me at 'em.

We love you.

Is this in the right forum?

I'm sure I know where this came from. Secret FB site? The same that target Bravenak?

You stay strong!

Only admin can get rid of a Du'er



...did I get 'em all?
