By the way, I've never voted to hide a post and I've never used the ignore function.

When you get a jury call there are 3 options, the last option is to turn off jury.



Members may be asked to serve regularly on a Jury, although they will not be asked more than once every 18 hours. A member who is chosen to serve on a Jury is presented with a notification on all DU pages requesting that they participate. They may choose one of three options:

"YES, I can serve now" (the member is immediately seated on a Jury)
"NO, I can't serve now" (the member is not seated on a Jury and cannot be selected again for a minimum of 18 hours)
"Don't ask me again" (the member is not seated on a Jury and their "Willingness to serve on a DU Jury" option is set to "Unwilling&quot


It's easy to do.

Bernie announced but yes, I better do that. I want no surprises next month - or there will be a scene. So, if I don't want to be on the 10:00 news, I better check ahead of time.

Paulie responded that the button for willing/unwilling to be on a jury had been set to unwilling. I changed it back to willing a few min. ago.
