(9,233 posts)Because I did not.
I made 3 alerts (now 4) ever at DU including the one that got your post hidden.
I never alerted in any coordinated matter or discussed my actions as a juror except specifically to you in PM nearly 2 weeks after the hide and you making an OP and long thread in the Hillary Clinton group about being alert stalked and gang alerted -- untrue.
I served on hundreds of juries and was fair and in the spirit of TOS; yes, I did vote for hiding posts of Clinton supporters but used the same judgement as for non-Clinton supporters. I voted to hide more Clinton supporter posts because a majority of the juries were for their posts.
You posted a thread in the Hillary Clinton group specific to my alert that hid your posts - you made claims of alert stalking, jury conspiracy, etc and that the alerter should not be on juries and you would go to Admin. The thread went on for nearly 100 posts in that vein - but none of the claims were true, I had made only 3 (now 4) alerts ever at DU. I jurored fair and according to TOS.
I don't ignore posters and my posts that could be interpreted of violations of TOS are extremely rare. Only 2 posts of my own were ever hidden.
(1) "Hillary Clinton is a psychopath" and a reference to how Clinton reminded me of Richard Nixon in the text.
Title to a post that contained the infamous video of Hillary Clinton "We came ... He Died" I am OK with this.
(2) "Who cares what you think? nt"
Title response with no text to a long thread started by Bravnak. There was probably a dozen or more posts by Bravnak in the thread more worthy of a hide and ultimately Bravnak was locked out of their own thread by a hide.
Nearly two weeks after your post was hidden and, in a friendly and fraternal fashion, I told you I had made the alert and observed your thread (now I will say of bile and imagination) in the Hillary Clinton group. There was nothing unfriendly nor gloating nor hostile on my part and you without a trace of hostility asked for a link to your thread and the thread where I has alerted which I provided. From that point on - April 27 - I have never beeb asked to be on a jury when prior it was a near daily occurrence.
Your were a paranoid in your OP and stabbed me in the back and I lost jury duty for no reason whatsoever because I was consistently fair in 100s of juries over years.
This event says very little positive about your character and whatever administrator then removed me from jury duty.
So call me a whiner and link folks to your whiny OP and thread of bile and fabrication in the Hillary Clinton group.
I make an effort to be kind at DU and sometimes provide some original contact. The occasional time I am not kind is to posters that make a practice of not being kind who disrupt intentionally.
