Systematically, by design and not by choice of the community, the owners of DR1 have decided what information is worth for us to read, follow, reply, converse, and talk about - leading the horses to water, just as any good communist regime.
This isn't my site, I do not pay for it, but it was intended to be a "community" as it has been expressed so many times by the same people that now force on to us, what to read and follow.
Let the community pick and chose what to post, read, reply and comment on, stop systematically feeding 25 articles, perhaps more (count them yourself) per day right on the front page of the site. No, we do not pay a penny, neither are we the owners of the site (no need to repeat it Alter Ego), but this is a free to reach "community" with the intend to discuss stuff that affect us all, therefore we should have a say.
If the paradigm of ownership would be swiftly brought on to us thrown righ on our faces by ALter Ego as Mod, then, this isn't a community any-longer, and it has deteriorated to become straight forward a dictatorship.
The articles aren't even originals, they are a copy of articles from local newspapers - we come here to discuss what we've decided is important for our community and not necessarily newspapers articles.
Summarize them, rolled all into one post and post them once during the day and stop clogging the information arteries of the front page.
Allow the community to post, reply, comment and discourse as we chose.
Again, no, we aren't the owners of the site - no need to repeat yourself Alter Ego - now feel free to close this one as well. Yet another proof on "super authority and super powers of a super moderator."
