Question for the community.

Is there a way to limit the forums a OP shows up in?
Seems I posted videos that show up on the general feed (I just learned how to do it....heh heh.) and I seem to have done something regrettable and want to make sure what I'm doing, doesn't irritate people. I see music videos posted everyday. I thought I was being supportive and topical, guess not.
Any input on above from anyone in the know?

I'm probably in trouble bc I did it a few times w protest type support songs...A thread got locked. I thought I was doing the right thing in posting in videos and media. Good grief.
I apologize if i did something wrong.
**W all the bad news, I thought it'd help.

I was trying to lift peoples spirits, and made myself sick bc I screwed up on DU. I sure appreciate that ptah. I deleted ones I could find. I sure won't do that again. I'm sorry if I was disruptive. Thanks again.

If you want to be sure that you're posting something appropriate for any forum, just click on the tab at the top that says About This Forum and it'll give you the Statement of Purpose (what's acceptable) for that particular forum. I still double check that sometimes and I've been here since 2003.

Thank you. Personally I just need a break from the politics sometimes, and thought maybe others would too. Wish it didn't show on the general thread. I have seen others do it and I appreciated the break it provided me when the scroll was just so ugly w dt. Have a good weekend.
