It's not fair to be in FFR LIMBO because the majority of the board gets 2 hides on you in 24 hr even after amnesty.


Love you, bravenak.. you, too, rbr.. Mahalo~

and I believe she's been on suspension before, she needs to reconsider her postings.

In the past, someone like that would have been tombstoned.

on time outs in the past. Why don't you go tell them they should reconsider their postings.

And no, you don't get tombstoned solely for 5 hides - which btw you could not surpass because you got a time out at 5. Do you know how many times darkangel was on time out before she finally got banned? There is another poster who can barely make it 2-3 months without being on time out and she is still here.

I don't think you have a clue about what you are saying.

To be sure Bravenak has been provocative and often her posts are meant to provoke but the fact that she is who she is

Well, that is the majority of why the reaction is what it is.

And she was spot on about Bernie and the black vote. There are a lot of people on DU who should be ashamed of how they acted towards her and others because they "knew it all." I know it's supposed to be silly season but that's just an excuse for vile behavior, there is nothing silly about the shit show that has gone down on DU since last summer.

Her FFR has been way too long.

I'll repeat myself: anyone who keeps on getting timeouts is clearly violating a lot of standards here, even allowing for the stalking that has gone on here.

They should bring back tombstoning.

Bravenak was extremely contrite, but was harassed and targeted, as were here friends and family, apparently. That's not okay.

And all of these alerts are getting really old. I'm put on juries every day, sometimes more than one a day, and most of the time they are silly and spiteful. Often they are just targeting someone the alerter doesn't like (like Bravenak) as a way to harass.

So, K&R.

She was bullied and stalked off this board for speaking her mind, but she was RIGHT about the main thing they bullied and stalked her over (as were many others here). Those who stalked her can be as mad about that as they want, but the votes were counted and she was RIGHT.
