Yesterday Mar. 5th at about 5:30 p.m. I posted this diary. I had been wanting to address the contents therein for some time. Now everyone here at Dkos including me knows that I suck as a writer wannabe. I even suck more understanding protocols of how diaries are handled and selected for a broader audience to read.
Now I understand that I should address this message to the help desk but I would not even think of bothering such a busy department with this small favor I am asking of the community. I am a bit confused about the fast track my diary of yesterday took in disappearing from the boards.
I am confused because someone placed the Recommended tag on that diary and it got absolutely no play to the audience I wanted to address. It really is no big deal that it is now gone from viewers because I clearly understand that I may have hurt some feelings with the raw language I used to express what I view as racism in today`s society.
The reason I am writing this is because a short time ago someone here wrote a diary complaining that someone was `fucking with his/her tags` in diaries. It struck me as unbelievable that this could happen in a diary that I wanted so much to reach as many folks here at Daily Kos as possible. I wanted to hear some comments.
Not only do I find the diary Recommended with 19 comments, but when I went to read those comments, I only find five or six. Those comments are exactly what I expected to read, most agree with my diary.
So story short: Is is possible someone added this Rec` tag to insult, or fuck with my head? Now I said I do not understand how this works, maybe I am wrong. Am I?
