got us there in the first place.

I knew from the first month of the formation of DU3 that P/A tone would be hard to handle/deal with.

The admin, imo still have not found a successful way to deal with it.

Goading is taking place and the Goaders are are hardly ever alerted on therefore rarely hidden.

Whereas the goadee that eventually Pops Off at the Goader and calls them on their bullshit is alerted on and usually hidden for using foul language.

The astute and discerning reader sees it happening but, is at a loss on how to deal with it all.

Being stupid is OK on DU3. Calling out people for being stupid and explaining to them why they have embraced a stupid position is not an easy thing to do. You handle it with more grace and aplomb than I ever could. I retreat while, Forward On You GO.

I admire and respect you for doing it. Others, however, don't and that is just the simple fact of the matter at issue.

Why they don't respect you? I don't know.
