Letting them know who is gone?

This is going to be a fairly short and unsubstantive post, but I'm bothered why the fact that several of us have been banned and people we used to interact with at the Great Orange Clintonia probably don't even know. I hate to lose track of them, but it doesn't seem to even be possible to message them outside a diary.

Would anyone who can still post there be interested in putting together a list of us and posting it at DKOS? If possible, also let them know that this is where we are. It wouldn't have to be immediately, we can wait a couple of days and wait for more folks to get banned. Also, I don't know if that poster would catch any DKOS hostile fire for doing this.

Just a thought; what do you think?

BTW, I tried to add tags and couldn't figure them out. Sorry.

There are a few of us here who have been ban hammered. I was there for 11 years, trusted, paid user, 5 bars of mojo, and suddenly I'm banned.

chembob= looked, and your comment today, calling her a liar, etc. why you wouldn't vote for her was too critical per Kos guidelines.
Not surprised you were banned, when I read your comment, I thought getting banned was your intention

I didn't even realize I posted it after KOS' silly deadline. I've been exhausted and on pain meds for my tooth and my screwed up shoulder, all the while wrapping up final grades on a quarterly course I teach, trying to complete midterm grades on a semester course I teach, and taking over the second half semester of yet another course. Pretty petty to ban people for such trivial shit. So I called Hillary a liar. Doesn't KOS know she's a liar? Plenty of video evidence available.

I'm pretty sure kos called her a liar in 2008. Hell, Obama has called her a liar.

12 years and glad I am no longer there- so much hate and attacking anyone that did not follow the group think. I have not signed in since March 5 and not sure if I still have any access- do not care. However, it would be nice to continue to bring the more of like minded people here, but no pressure. In my mind, they will find us.

This community has really helped me understand that I need to continue the fight for not only myself but my family and community.

After the massive timeouts in mid February, of which I was one, I haven't been back since. And, have no intentions of returning. Seems strange after spending the last 12 years there to suddenly find, I'm no longer welcome. But I was going to give them the benefit of banning me. I'll just remain there as a long term user who quit posting.

I'm thrilled to see so many familiar names here! Looks like we can make this place the kind of place we've all been looking for, one that promotes progressive ideals and is not tied to a DLC, DNC, third way party that pays us lip service to get our votes and then kicks in the teeth after the election. It's time for a truly viable third party. Maybe we can all be the beginning of that!

others have posted they'd be happy to Kosmail them for you. I'd be happy too as well.

Progressive to the bone.

From the way DKos is operating now, an email with a list of banned people would probably get the poster banned.
If the person looks you up, they will see the "banned" symbol.

Think a few messages is the only way to do it.

There is no justice. There can be no peace.

Joy of Fishes told me about this site before the witch hunts and book burnings over there. It didn't take long to figure some people shouldn't be crossed.

I'd be more comfortable tagging in a message than posting in a comment. I learned early to just avoid some subjects and some posters. There are a few places I'd miss, like darksyde's science posts, Ojibwa's anthro articles, and coffee with MOT.

If there's anyone in particular you want me to tag, let me know.

There is no such thing as TMI. It can always be held in reserve for extortion.

As background, I left voluntarily > 2 weeks ago after 12+ years. I am in good standing and can post when I want. I tried kos-mailing 2 people to come here and the links somehow triggered an error message... Otoh, when I messaged w/o any links, the messages when through. So no links in messages. I know 2 others who had the same problem.

What would work is to have some one (or three) people who are in good standing, message one or 2 on the list and ask them to email that person.. I.e. I send Chem Bob (I know, you were banned) a message asking him to email me. Then share with him the information and ask him to do it to x person, and so on... like a chain.

If one person who is not posting is sending too many messages it'll be suspicious. It's why I suggest several people and a sort of chain.

OK, I'll try to add a list later. My screwed up shoulder is bothering me mightily, so am going to get offline for a minute. I have to get midterm grades out tomorrow between the two classes I'm teaching, so need to save my arm for grading and typing. OPOL comes to mind, Ojibwa is already mentioned, I'd sort of like MB to know, just in case he doesn't. There are a whole slew of them and I'll get back to this, hopefully, in a couple of days.

Opol and Meteor Blades are both members here. Use our search function to find c99p members.

if you search with an empty box for users you'll get a list of all 1 million 4 hundred thousand people. If you then click on mojo it redoes the list starting with the infinite mojo people like Markos and Meteor Blades. Clicking on it again should bring up those who are banned or NR'ed but I'm seeing people with no mojo at all. Page after page after page. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but that's how it should work.

Shahryar, since most of the recently banned/timed-out/nr'd folks were also recently active you can narrow the list down substantially by choosing "Last commented" in the "By activity" box, then clicking on the first date box to bring up the calendar, and then select a recent date. When the list of names comes up, click on the mojo column twice, just as you said.

I think you'll find that OPOL and Meteor Blades
are already members of c99p, probably other
folks you're looking for, too.

Happy searching!

I've been checking it out over there today since I haven't been banned yet and the bernie lies were flying. I've popped in to call them on their bs while I can, it's frustrating and pathetic. But i guess it's been like that for many months now. I'm so glad that I saw such welcoming posts when I looked into this place.
