Pissed off and disgusted

[NightTrain]

That's how I feel about the mods finding it necessary to lock my "homeless" thread. And it wasn't all Devoir's fault. The rest of you allowed yourselves to swallow his troll bait and get sucked into arguing with him. Don't you know any better?!

Ah, screw it. I'm getting the hell out of here for now.

1. I agree

though they were polite about it.

2. Sorry-I was the culprit

Please accept my apologies.

3. If you're going to be pissed and disgusted

Be pissed and disgusted at the fact that so many of us are a paycheck away from homeless or hungry and still so ignorant about WHO ACTUALLY IS homeless and hungry.


On edit: Careful...the person you are referring to as a troll is not banned.

4. Clarification

Lest anyone think otherwise, I didn't mean to imply that I faulted the mod who locked my thread. Actually, I didn't blame him at all!

I was more flabbergasted as the otherwise intelligent and (dare I say it?) mature folks who allowed themselves to be roped into an argument with that troll. But I'm even starting to cool down from that now! Just needed a little time away, I guess.

OK, it's getting near my bedtime. G'night, DUers! :boring:

5. I'm sorry that your thread was locked.

However, the mods are usually so good at tombstoning that sometimes it's hard not to swarm like a piranha when a more ambiguous freep gets through.

:evilgrin:

6. Sorry, NightTrain

I read the thread after the fact, and if it weren't for the shit-disturber, it was a damn good thread. Man, we've got some people with *serious credentials* on here, from all over the place. Aww, DU is like our very own Internet brain trust! I would have been interested to see what the discussion could have developed into if it had been allowed to continue.

7. The "disruptor" is still here

I'm sorry the thread was locked also.
