Edited for clarity. Hmm. Clarity for who?

I read that phrase on so many posts over there it's really got me wondering about the people who get edited for clarity and don't speak up. WTF would they let that goon edit them for clarity? Why doesn't anyone contain.

What if it wasn't "edited for clarity?" What if it was written exactly how the poster meant it to be read and interpreted?

At the very least Pilchesky should leave the unedited version at the end of the post so readers can make up their own minds about what's clear and what isn't.

Yeah Art, so much for "freedom of speech". Since we're on the subject, have you noticed the "edited for typo" clarifications, as well? I wonder exactly what would constitute a typographical error in a DD post that would have to be edited by fruitcake. Does he edit posts by inserting, or replacing names? One has to wonder.
It is refreshing, however, that the sheer amount of new topics, and posts to current topics, has dropped substantially on DD lately.The rumor mill really shuts down after an election. It's as if the whole concept of DohertyDeceit really mattered to begin with. I've noticed that there's been a boatload of new user names lately. Fruitcake's up to his old tricks again, I'm sure.

Log on to see when those new users were all created. In the past they were all done a big bunch at a time about a minute apart for each one. Coincidence, or something more?

I'm sure that if there are idiosynracies in DD poster records, that's it's all the fault of Irish-Catholic Jesuits. And Tammany Hall. And Hispanics who take care of their properties.

I am glad I am not the only one who has had that thought run through her head.

It's a thought that I have all of the time ... I don't ever recall reading a post here and then making a decision to edit especially for clarity ... My thoughts are my thoughts ... it's hard enough sometimes to keep them clear (old age does not come alone) ... I can't even begin to worry about clarifying all of the thoughts of the posters.
