In reply to the discussion: A note on Jury Service. (edited) [View all]Warpy
(111,232 posts)decided it was time for them to take over. Unless it is outrageously right wing, insults a specific poster, encourages voting for a non Democratic candidate, or otherwise violates the rules in such a way as to be totally unambiguous, I'm voting to let it stand.
Lesser irritations can be slugged out in the thread. Calling out a bigoted post in the thread is what should be done. Running to a jury and hoping to get a bad one so a merely annoying post can be hidden is the coward's way out.
Besides, "Show hidden post" is too much of a temptation to me, I always read them. I don't think I'm alone in this. My reaction usually is "wow, what a jerk, too bad this can't be answered in the thread."
But that would take the courage of showing your own screen name.
