You knocked someone else's diary off the Upcoming List to post a whine about Daily Kos.  Feel better?

Seems a bit arcane.

and now he calls himself a Libertarian. You're in good company. I've been banned 2x.

"Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence."  I'm not saying you haven't been blocked, but there's always a chance it was a technical glitch with your account.

Seems possible they shut down accounts that haven't been active for a while.

Have you e-mailed to check it out?

It's just a blog.

Meh, just register nrafter531 and move on.  No sense complaining here.

If you described Clinton supporters as racists on the basis of a phone call, you deserved to be banned.

You're one of many who have been censored from Kos and from the Huffington Post, I hear.  And you're a supporter of Obama (!), so you can imagine how HRC supporters have felt all along.

How has the progressive community come to this?  Why is dissent within the Dem party and the liberal/ progressive community so threatening?  How can the Left have violated  so many of their own's 1st Amendment right?  I don't know who we are any more.  What this primary season has shown is that the Left is no better than the Right when it comes to intolerance and not respecting free speech.  This makes me very sad indeed.  

In any case, I'm happy to hear that you support your candidate but are NOT fanatical about it.  This worshipping of Obama is what first turned me off to his candidacy. This and his soaring rhetoric which always lacked substance.  He's gotten better though, but not much.

I'm sure that there's a reasonable explanation.  

I think their little rules explain that after a certain number of offenses/TR's, you can be banned or excommunicated...whatever. They did send a long-winded message explaining why I was being banished, but they must have had me mixed up with someone who gave a shit.

Ironic...for all the things I've read on Kos protesting China's record regarding Human Rights, their efforts at censorship and mind control are right out of the People's Republic of China.

Let me get this straight...you're complaining about dKos' policies on a site where a huge number of Obama supporters lost their privileges simply for supporting the wrong candidate, recommending the wrong diaries, and TRing the wrong members? Talk about the wrong choice of forum.

I checked some of your history and some of your hiddens.

Gee, you describe Obama, Edwards, and Clinton as "scum" and declare that none of them can beat McCain, you generally acted like a jerk to people, and made a point of being an irritant, even (sarcastically, I'm sure) identifying yourself as a concern troll in both diaries and comments.

Now, none of that really warranted a banning, but being an inveterate and unrepentant ass is somewhat less tolerated over there than over here, it seems, so maybe an admin had enough and just pulled the plug on you.

You might give a day or two for someone to respond. Chances are you'll get reinstated. A new ID won't allow you to post diaries for a while, and besides, unlike here, if you're spotted as a zombie, you'll just get zapped again.

This is the wrong forum for your complaints - during the primaries being an Obama supporter here was a bannable offense.  I can't fill you in on the details because I was hit in like February and didn't come back until the primaries were over, but apparently it got worse.

Anyway I've enjoyed your posts here, but I remember your first diary about how the people at Kos had come to regard you as a troll.  So I went there and read your diaries, which you were kind enough to hotlink to, and I have to tell you, I would have come to the same conclusion to, for what it's worth.

I mean EVERY diary was "guys, I'm depressed - I don't think people like Obama.  Here's an AIM conversation with someone who says they'll never vote for him".  And people would take the diary as it was, and then someone would say "hey guys, check out this person's past diaries" and it would turn out that they were ALL like that, and before you knew it they'd be posting midgits in spacesuits.  Just sayin'.

That site sucks. Why would you even bother with them? Let the preacher preach to the choir; it's non-productive in my opinion.

Basically Kos is Stalinist in the way it suppresses dissent. First amendment. You must be kidding. It's very hard to tell the difference between them and the crazies at Redstate. Which is something a lot of philosophers have often commented upon. Extremists of left and right are much the same.

I left when kos allowed the death threats, threats of violence, etc to go unpunished.  No sane site would not autoban anyone who said that.

That's a lot of censorship from such a "progressive liberal" website that believes in the Constitution.

At least you can write diaries here.  

i haven't been there in months....

but i've got the same situation.

as a clinton supporter, they locked me out long ago...

btw...

i was locked out HERE too....i just came back under a different name.

I was kicked out for supporting Clinton and will never return.

LOL!  What a great diary.  Check the hits this site gets compared to DK before you make a further ass of yourself.  Plenty of voices were silenced here for not kissing Jerome's ass.  

Get over yourself.
