1. I alert on myself a lot.
Maybe once a day.

Maybe two to five alerts a week on other people.

I am a bad person. I need to hit alert on myself all the time.

6. I've had a person tell me

7. Usually when I hit alert,
I end up realizing that the person has already been tomb-stoned, it's kind of embarrassing.

15. Same here.
Of course, I tend to stay out of the GD forums. Never go to I/P or the gungeon.

'tis a hair easier to get along in the Lounge!

16. I vacillate,
while I am most definitely a lounge lizard, I go through stretches where I am all over DU.

10. Not yet.
No dinero at the moment; none -- NONE -- of the four preferred providers for Durable Medical Equipment even HAS them. :grr:

I should go back to my thread to see if anyone had any other ideas. Like free experimental spine transplants.

Thanks for asking.

and get lots of drugs.

I wish I knew what to do. :(

18. The trollers
You know, the people who have one purpose here, to piss others off, but they never *quite* break the rules. Then, when someone gets fed up and swipes at them, they hit alert.

You people know who you are.

19. I have never alerted on anyone...
I don't believe in it. Well, not yet anyways. I just figure that in MOST places (not the DU) we have freedom of speech, so I like to preserve that everywhere...even if it does go against DU rules.

Let them have thier say. I think everyone realizes what a dumbass anyways, so that's enough "punishment" for them.
