Cranky Users
The Cranky Users group was founded in 2011 for DKos users who thought DK4 was scary or weird or hard to figure out. We made our way through DK4 and DK5, and now we're back! We're still gonna hold hands, help each other out, ask dumb questions, and laugh ourselves silly, this time as we navigate the jump to WordPress. Follow the group or the #CrankyUsers tag.
