Daily Kos Trolls Wreck MyDD part II

I don't think Recommended diaries should be open season
for vacuous, negative comments, that have no base, and
are only intended to distract from attention from the diary.

Yesterday, I wrote a diary pointing out how people from
Daily Kos are coming over and deliberately wrecking the
Recommended Diaries by Clinton supporters.

Clinton supporters write here, because they were harassed
off of Daily Kos.

I forgot to mention another Daily Kos sport:  adding their
own tags to the diary.  Tag comments that range from profane like
"Turd Sandwich,"  to disrespectful.

I don't understand why these people have the privilege of interjecting
comments in tag lines.  All I've seen is abuse.

Here are tags added to my recent Diary:

Tags: boring troll, logic melts the internetstar, Student Guy added this tag because he fully supports the comments taken from that diary in referring to it and he demands that his name be added to them like a cosponsor, please put me out of my misery by deleting my account, internetstar is lame., duck, GOOSE, Duck-duck (all tags)

Another "let's attack democrats" who don't agree with us diaries. Another waste of a diary.  Let's deal with the issues and quit whining about other democrats who may oppose your views. And yes, I am a member at Daily Kos, Think Progress, TPM, Firedoglake, and several other communities.  My life is not lived in a vacuum, I would hope yours is not, either.

It's nice to see that this wimpy diary was roundly ignored.

I figure today's "part two" will have the scary trolls chasing you to the edge of a high cliff. You slip and all the readers will think you have fallen to your demise to the canyon floor below.

However,; Chapter 3, to be published tomorrow, will show you did not fall. With the new Indiana Jone coming out this summer you should continue your adventure in the same spirit.

You do realize (2.00 / 10)

that a diary such as this, where you whine piercingly complain about how mean people are, all the while insulting them and demanding they be silent about the insults, isn't going to be well-received, right?

If you want an environment entirely devoted to Obama-bashing and/or Clinton hagiography, try Hillaryis44.

I would add that a certain invisible cabal seems to be controlling the Rec List, so perhaps that should be fixed as well.

Listen (2.00 / 2)

I read lots and lots and lots of diaries here and on Kos while my two baby kitties try to shred my legs.

Even if I don't agree with a diary I will shut up if it is well done, appears factual etc. etc.  On the other hand, if the diary has factual errors, failure to link, is a hit job or like the one that started your last diary whinge so completely over the top that it makes me laugh out loud, then I say something.

Just because a barrage of diaries appear to be one paragraph long, with five in a day hitting the exact same subject, and get a firm eyeroll from people doesn't mean there is a bleeding conspiracy...it probably really means that operation chaos is getting all the same talking points from somewhere...and I don't think it is the Hillary campaign.

Tag abuse usually occurs when someone writes a pointless, whiny, or trollish diary. So... you know, consider the source of the problem.

unbelievable (2.00 / 1)

Does there ever come a point where your crying and whining ceases? I really think that you post these foolish diaries to get attention, negative or positive, just as long as you are on the receiving end of any feedback.

Do you ever reach a point where you don't consider yourself a victim anymore? Oh I know, everyone from mydd Obama supporters to dailykos members to the MSM outlets are all out to get you ..I get it...but throwing hissy fits like this will get you no where.

Re: Daily Kos Trolls Wreck MyDD part II (2.00 / 5)

Honestly, this is silly and embarassing.
Your previous diaries remind me of a Republican troll who wants to start trouble in a Democratic blog ("who wants to go with me to boo Obama in PA?"), or someone who is so resentful of being "thrown off" Daily Kos that you have lost whatever perspective you had.
Stop whining or stop posting stupid diaries. Either one will get the results you seek.

"Turd Sandwich" (2.00 / 1)

Heh.

Such tags are childish, but harmless, no?  And aren't these readily deletable by the moderators?  Not that they need any more work to do.

Re: Daily Kos Trolls Wreck MyDD part II (2.00 / 3)

How can you be "from Daily Kos"? I've got an ID on both sites and I would guess that many other folks here do too.  Does that make me "from Kos"?

Are some nasty people actually pointing out truth and reality in the echo chamber of MyDD Clintondom. I'm so sorry. If you want a site populated only with people who agree with you, there are a couple of Hillary only sites out there you might like.

Woot my tag got mentioned! (2.00 / 2)

I still fully endorse the comments in the previous diary.  Also I added the tag so it would be forever.  Whiny diaries usually attract a lot of tag playing.  I tell someone when I am playing with the tags or make it obvious.  I usually don't do it, but your diary was special.

"I don't think Recommended diaries should be open season for vacuous, negative comments, that have no base"

Hmm. what is so special about Recommended diaries?

Are they usually written by some sort of special  elite cabal that should be beyond criticism by us ordinary lesser Democrats?

Has a sense of entitlement rubbed off from a candidate onto some of the candidate's supporters?
