A word about the ongoing Democratic presidential primaries

533. Let's hope the bad jury pool is decided by an appeals process.

I just posed a question to the admins in the Ask Admins group about this exact thing.

I like the idea of bad jurors. Let us appeal bad hides. Let the appeals process decide the shitty jurors.

But you're so wrong about the 5 hide rule. Most people I'm seeing in the amnesty threads that are posted maybe posted 3 bad comments but 2 terrible hides. So if you post 3 bad drunk comments (I am 2/4, any time now you can see my drunk as fuck posts on my transparency page) but 2 other comments are innocent, you deserve to be blocked for three months?

People have shitty days. People say shitty stuff.

But in the case of sheshe2 and bravenak, their entire transparency page is nothing, literally nothing, to what supposed "Sanders supporters" say on a daily basis. I am being real here. Real talk. Totally serious. Go look at their hides. And why is it that the AA community here is disproportionately affected by hides? I think there are real, legitimate reasons for this.

Name two people who should be on vacation, you can't do it. Most of the hides for vacation are total garbage. And the admins saw that and rectified it. Literally one AA poster posting a picture of a Beyonce picture, in a protected group, with a fellow friend DUer, got a hide. Literally an AA poster posting comments said about her, directly, and maliciously, got a hide. Incredible.

The admins wouldn't be doing this if they didn't think that the vast overwhelming majority of people on time out had at least one or two illegitimate hides on their ranks. And for what it's worth, you can expect guys like trumad to actually start behaving, because there's no joy in getting locked out of the site now over totally biased, wrong hides. (Sorry trumad, I'm seeing it already. You don't want to get actually PPR'd, you know I'm right.)
