Appreciate you considering it so quickly.


Don’t you have to glorify it in order to have other people consider it?

Not to tip into it people who are susceptible I don’t think.

Jeff, are you familiar with GOMI and do you have an opinion of it? People in that thread are comparing it to DCUM but I think the sites are so different. GOMI is organized almost exclusively around bloggers they hate etc., and has few guidelines about what isn't permitted, whereas DCUM is much more general conversation. There is snark here too but it's not the main purpose of the site, which is just advice and conversation. The WE WILL TAKE THESE PEOPLE DOWN factor is like the difference between a tabloid and a general purpose magazine, but maybe I'm missing something. No worries if you'd rather not give an opinion though.

You have to click 'report' directly on the comment that's concerning.

Most of the posts I've seeing are arguing about GOMI.

I’m not seeing that… lots of debate but not wha you’re suggesting.

That thread is 8 pages long. Could you please be more specific about what posts concern you?

Longtime mommy blogger died by suicide this week. Nothing good is happening in this thread (and plenty that is potentially harmful); please consider removing it.

Thanks Jeff.
