(29,414 posts)1. I was on one of those, too.
And just alerted on another one. I'm guessing that they've found a means of getting in easily. One of the jurors asked if DU uses Captcha for new members. That might help.

At least they are juries where I can make a quick decision and not worry about pissing off a good DUer.
There's one thread I've been called to jury two different posts on (or maybe it was a second thread on the same subject) and I bailed out. Whatever is going on in that subgroup, I don't want any part of.
