Something is not right

[I Vote In Pittsburgh]

Why are 20% of DU posters (pro-Clinton) making 80% of the noise? :shrug:

[terrya]

1. Depends on your perspective

I just put some Obama supporters on ignore. Regarding some of the crap that I've seen here as of late. The "noise" level lessened considerably.

[I Vote In Pittsburgh]

48. Obama supporters are not innocent either

And, as I've said, I don't mind pro-Hillary posts. However, there seemed to be a disproportionate amount of anti-Obama threads when you take into consideration the percent of Hillary supporters.

I used "seemed" since I went on an ignore-spree today.

[tekisui]

2. It's the Clinton Way. Bang and Blame.

[aquarius dawning]

3. 3 posts per day per poster. How are Clinton supporters making anymore noise?

[I Vote In Pittsburgh]

5. That's what I want to know

70% of the threads on my GDP page are pro-Clinton (which is ABSOLUTELY FINE by me) and anti-Obama.

[Arugula Latte]

49. According to DU polls, Hillary supporters are outnumbered almost 3 to 1 here ...

Yet, you'd never know it from the mountains of anti-Obama crap piled up here.

[havocmom]

8. um, OPs not the only noise Replies are loud and plentifull

There is an observable pattern with some. Has been for some time.

[my3boyz]

19. Multiple accounts. nt

[Iris]

23. oh, so you've noticed that to be a problem in the 30 days you've been here?

give me a break.

[snappyturtle]

51. Pay no mind....people are just a tad 'bucky'here lately. I think

it's been rampant the last month. Welcome! to DU! :hi:

[Barack_America]

41. Not everyone uses their 3 posts every day.

I don't.

[Bread and Circus]

4. I wonder the same thing. I noticed when I'm logged out all my ignored

re-appear....and this forum looks like a hate site.

[Eurobabe]

6. Never do that unless you have a HAZMAT suit on!

Otherwise we'll have to come in and get you!

[elixir]

28. Why don't you just hang out at the "Barack Obama" discussion board only. Less discussion, more glitz

[NC_Nurse]

7. Because they have a new line of attack this morning?

Wheee.:crazy:

[NashVegas]

9. More "I Know You Are But What Am I?" Posturing

Please, don't stop. We love this.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

10. I've put like 50 of them on ignore and still at least 1/3 of GD-P threads are anti-Obama spam. nt

[TexasObserver]

11. Desperation, anger, and a sense of impending doom.

[snappyturtle]

50. Yes, frantic times for Sen. Clinton's supporters. n/t

[Rockholm]

12. Since when?

[harun]

17. Since now

[Iris]

22. what does this prove? 564 people voted out of 115,011 registered users?

[harun]

40. For some reason I think that if 115,011 people here took the poll

and got the same results you would still say "what does that prove"?

[Iris]

47. No, I wouldn't. Why don't you go get the rest of DU to vote and then we'll talk.

.005% does not tell me much.

[mmonk]

13. Because the rest of us are turned off of GD:P

for the most part except for making a few comments here or there in response to attacks.

[harun]

14. I can't see how the 3 post rule didn't hamper some of that but maybe

they have multiple accounts.

When 80% of DU supports Obama this board should not be 90% Clinton propaganda spam.

[my3boyz]

16. YES..they have mulitiple accounts. I wish there was a way to crack down on that. Oh well.

[LostinVA]

21. Elad can run IP addresses

It's been done to get rid of sockpuppets in the past.

[Iris]

24. Interesting, isn't it?

How someone who's been here a month all knows how it all works around here?

[LostinVA]

29. Yep

It's not as funny as when people here less than 1 month call me a troll. It happens every few days, now.

[Iris]

38. Happened to me, today, too. And I've got nearly 10,000 posts and have been here for 6 years

[terrya]

31. Well

Let's just say it can't be coincidental.

[my3boyz]

15. I don't know but

the ignore feature on this website is WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is nice to come to the boards and not have to read all of their crap! I wish Obama had his own board (not the blog) like John Kerry had during his election. That was even better. For now the ignore function works great though.

[billyoc]

18. I think a descriptive medical analogy explains it best:

"A death rattle is a gurgling or rattle-like noise produced shortly before or after death by the accumulation of excessive respiratory secretions in the throat."

[Iris]

20. How do you know that 80% of DU supports Obama?

Is there some requirement somewhere to state who you will vote for before making posts?

[ShortnFiery]

25. Many of us over 40 have lived though the Biden "witch hunt" over trumped up Plagarism charges.

It stinks to high heaven.

If that's all they've (the 20% conducting the attacks) got, they should be ashamed. :nuke:

[Iris]

26. It's not. But whenever we ask for some tangible reason to support Obamba, we get a lot of n/t's

and some cute little quips.

"He's the changer"

[chascarrillo]

32. Maybe if you didn't call him "Obamba", you'd start getting some serious replies.

Maturity works wonders.

[Iris]

39. Oh, sorry. One typo and I'm suddenly immature.

If that were the measure of maturity, then this whole place would be a nursery school.

Still, no reasons about why I should believe he will be the changer. Nice try

[surfermaw]

30. You got that right, I think I mentioned that on this board months ago, Obama should have known bette

[elixir]

27. I guess this is a compliment. Your candidate is leading in superdelegates, momentum and popular

vote but you'r worried about the amount of Clinton posts on DU. I'm flattered, thank you.
I'm wondering what you would like us to do, limit our posts and responses to ...hmmm...how much? Let me know and get back to me.

[ericgtr]

33. I ask this question every day

and it's stunning to see the polls showing 80%+ around here for Obama. They are a vocal little group, aren't they?

[DemGa]

34. Outrage at the charlatan movement?

Seems plausible; your figures notwithstanding.

[OHdem10]

35. Strange ---I have been staying away from DU--The Monopoly

and Hyperbole of the Obamites--gives no room for us.

[Barack_America]

43. Apparently then...

The "McClurkin" and "plagiarism" posts are only visible to posters supporting Obama?

[Straight Shooter]

45. There's plenty of room. It would also help to raise the level of civility.

We welcome your participation and your posts.

:hi:

[demokatgurrl]

36. you're JOKING, right?????? n/t

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

37. Open Your Eyes. Are You That Ignorant? For Months The Obama Bullies Have Had Their Way In GDP.

Are you really this selectively sighted? What a crock of shit.

If ya want to talk about noise, I've never seen more noise and crap be spewed in my life than I've seen from the Obama supporters here the last few weeks. Get a grip on reality there bub.

[rug]

42. Maybe it has something to do with the tenor of tne Obama posts.

[Vinca]

44. The pay is good? nt

[Barack_America]

46. The Clinton campaign is willing to use "incendiary tactics" to win...

Her supporters are following her lead.
