I was permanently blocked from REALITY TEA (using Disqus) by the moderator of RT. I was attacked by bullies when I defended the Humane Society of the US. A woman kept posting and posting how HSUS was evil. I wanted to make sure people would still go to their local Humane Society to adopt since I had just found 2 great dogs there. I was immediately accused of working for PETA and being "undercover". WTF? Anyway, all of these crazies started posting how they loved killing animals. Seriously? I guess the moderator was uneducated because she believed I was an undercover activist? I was blocked for standing up for animals and HSUS.
Worst of all, the person who hated HSUS was a breeder. Anyway, after contributing funny, intelligent commentary regularly to Reality Tea, I was permanently blocked by a bully who said, "I just flagged you, Freak." I didn't even know what he meant. Well, the people who were being graphic about killing animals were left to continue to post while I was thrown out. I wrote to the moderators, hoping they would look at my previous posts and realize I was a good contributor, even complimenting their writers. I did not have a history of arguing with others. Nothing from Reality Tea. No response. No recourse. I continue to see graphic, offensive posters posting away on Reality Tea. No rhyme or reason. Very unfair. Its their loss! And Disqus does nothing to help except give everyone your email so that you are permanently blocked even if you change your username!

I used Disqus for quite awhile, getting plenty of likes on my comments. I even started getting followers. Another poster started writing vicious remarks about the Humane Society of the US. i. e: "HSUS is EVIL! Don't ever give them $!"
While I'm sure it has its problems, I had just adopted from a local Humane Society, and I did not want people to get confused and not go adopt because of her alarmist comments. Cruel disgusting bullies popped up, accusing me of being a "soldier" for PETA. I could not believe the moderator did not intervene since they were saying things like, "Can't wait to kill more animals because my fur coat looks fab." I said something like, "Ok hope you get paint on it." These idiots were like, "Admit you work for PETA now!" My comments were tame in comparison. The shallow, "fur looks so great on me I want to kill a fox next" person who was extremely graphic with the violence said, "I just flagged you, Freak." I didn't even know what that meant. Now I'm blocked forever from the site. And these sadistic MF's didn't even get flagged or anything. I just don't get it. Its not right, I was unfairly targeted. If anything, the fools attacking me sounded sick and twisted. I even used the Disqus "system" to write to the site and there was not even one response. This was Reality Tea by the way. I don't want a new account because they want you to register and there is no recourse if you are blocked. What do I get for giving them all my info? There were also many, many functionality issues on top of the unfair blocking. Oh, and don't forget, "You are LEGALLY responsible for what you type." WTF.
