I have been selected to serve on a DU jury?

[shockey80]

Does anybody know what that means?

1. Someone alerted on a post so they form a jury to vote on the 'appropriateness' of the alert

I've been getting 2 or 3 a day, lately.

2. It means you have to decide if a post should be hidden that is usually from

a Republican or Russian Troll

3. If You Did A Post & Waited For An Answer

you have likely timed out...

4. I think you have about 5 minutes to accept or decline. If you decline they continue to ask people.

If you accept, then you will see the post someone alerted on and what rule the post may have broken. You will be asked if you think the rules were broken or not.
You can opt out at any point in jury duty.

7. YOUR chance of serving is 26%, according to your profile

556 total posts: +6
200 or more days of membership: +20
20 or more posts in the last 90 days: +20
Not a Star member: +0
1 posts hidden in 90 days: -20

TOTAL: 26

8. It's like.. community moderation.

9. On DU.2 we had moderators, here on DU.3 we have juries to decide the fate of alerted posts

DU members are chosen at random to decide whether an alerted post breaks the rules and should be removed.

10. I liked the DU2 moderator system

"Community standards" can be pretty low or one sided at times.
