I have visited DU every day since 2004

[Dawgs]

And today is my last day.

Unfortunately, I am no longer welcome here.

Good bye!

[sufrommich]

1. Bye.nt

[femmocrat]

2. That is very sad, Dawgs.

I don't know what this is about, but I feel bad that you were made to feel unwelcome.

Best wishes to you.

3. If you've been here since '04, you know DU always goes into GE mode during election year

Rules change during election season, then change back after election.

I'm sad you feel unwelcome here.

I'll miss your posts! Bye and best wishes!



(P.S. Hope you take a break and come back soon)

11. Skinner has stated that the rules will remain past the GE.

There are plenty of places on the Internet to run down Democrats. DU is for those of us who want to help elect Democrats.

4. The only way you'd be unwelcome is if you are doing something to help Trump win. Are you?

[demmiblue]

5. Many are feeling like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole around here lately.

Take care of yourself.

(I am now trashing this thread because of the classless, nasty responses you are about to receive )

6. if you don't support Democrats winning this year and/or don't agree with the new TOS, then....

you are correct.

Otherwise, take a break and cya later.

7. Bye. eom

8. Things change over time.

Return sometime in the future. You will be needed.

9. Take care Dawgs.

Sorry you don't feel welcome here. This is one of the best progressive meeting grounds on the web.

10. I've visited every day since 2001, the new rules appear to be weeding out lots of trolls

and disruptors in general. It's unfortunate that the situation got to that level but things change. This is definitely the worst election period I've weathered around here.

I hope you'll check in occasionally and see things improve. DU has historically been a great source of information and camaraderie.
take care.

13. I am also 2001 and I thank the mods for cleaning up lately

This place was getting unbearable for a while, but in the last week things have changed a lot.

I am not sad to see the pro-Trump anti-Clinton crowd gone.

[sufrommich]

15. Yep. I have zero respect for so called progressives

making the "both sides are the same" bullshit arguments and I'm glad they've found a new home. Good riddance.

[Paladin]

24. Hear, hear. Good job, mods. (nt)

[Peacetrain]

12. Dawgs.. you have been here 4 years longer than me

And sometimes all of us have to take a break.. I get that.. I did it.. and sometimes stepping away can be a good thing.. wish you best.. and not goodby.. see you later kiddo!!

[snooper2]

14. We'll see you in the morning then!

[Bobbie Jo]

16. Bye

We're fighting for Democrats here, while some folks are still choosing up "sides."

[auntpurl]

17. Bye!

[Orrex]

18. I've visited nearly every day since March 2005, and I've never been welcome.

Some forums simply don't care for ribald limericks.

[dawg]

19. Hope you reconsider.

You've always been a thoughtful contributor. And the more dawgs around here the better it is for everyone!

[JaneyVee]

20. This is your own personal decision. Dont blame DU.

[RonniePudding]

21. Bye, Felicia

[kiva]

22. I know it's hard to change.

I've been doing the same thing since 2008, but am moving into a new place. Still miss some of the people here so I do check back in; change is hard, though it's getting easier as the regimentation increases. Skinner's house, his rules - so those of us who disagree can find new digs.

23. Be well.
