just what is the site "which shall not be named"?
I've seen that reference several times, including just now in ATA and I still don't know. If you can't post it here, or shouldn't, would someone please PM me? I'm just curious. And maybe an explanation of why it shall not be named, unless it is obvious.

6. Actually
Free Republic can be named and linked to. It promotes discussion, and although we think that those folks are disruptors, the other site is solely in existence to disrupt here.

4. I thought he was referring to the DU offshoot site that
you know, cannot be named. :-)

7. DU has always been at war with the site which shall not be named.
People would start paranoid threads here about a forum where they talk about trolling on DU, so we have to pretend it doesn't exist on here.

8. You're not talking about that site where discussions of banned members
and sex abound?
Like the Oscar Wilde quote, the "love that dare not speak its name", that site shall not be named.

13. Just some of the things they say about certain DUers
Who may not realize that they are being talked about behind their backs...there are good people there I understand, I personally know a few of them...

Sorry for the over generalization.

15. It's no different than all the crap we talk about people down in the
photography group. If people only had a clue, they would be lurking there more often.

16. Been there lately? I was...
registered as Guacamole, but I'm no longer on the list. They're down to 104 members.

I think they purged a lot of us who just showed up for a few weeks to troll. I haven't been there for months, but just peeked in earlier to see what Vetwife was doing over there.
