Just because you fools want to spew hate lies and other crap around I should not have to wast my time cruising through it. Hey Skinner this is the most destructive and infantile crap we have on the site.
Please give us the option to not wast our time being assaulted by this.

Thanks.

You can set your Preferences to exclude it from the "Latest" page
I've all but forgotten that that cesspool even exists...

2. You already have that option. It's a very simple,
quick and easy solution. It's called NOT CLICKING ON THE FORUM. There, see how easy that is? You don't like it, don't click on the forum and don't read any of the threads. It's that fucking simple.

6. You are not a helpless child or a dictator. You do not get to
decide for everyone else based on what YOU want. You just don't. And, as you've already been told on this thread, you have options for hiding it if you can't be bothered to simply ignore it.

4. If you become a donor, you have the option of hiding the forum. . .
It won't appear in "Latest Discussion Threads" and you'll access it only if you choose to click on it.

Become a donor. You'll receive much much more than you'll give.

7. I have donated many times, even for others but not with this crap
going on. To hell with it I just though it would make what use to be democraticunderground a nice place to find information and learn from diverse ideas much easier I can see now that is not the point of place anymore. If we could chose only the forums we were interested in and get their latest it would be much nicer. Oh well you guys go ahead a blow each other up and watch the repugs breeze into power in November.

You can. It's already been explained to you. You can hide the whole forum from both the "Latest" page and the "Greatest" page. You DON'T need to be a donor to do it.

11. I'm going to choose not to rise to the bait. . .
If you can't figure out the answer to your "problem" on your own, nothing I or anyone else says to you will (or can) help.

Thanks for the keyboard exercise. I needed to get loose for work.
