The Ignore list

[joiei]

Who's ignore list are you on.  Have they told you why?  Or why do you think they have it out for you in spite of the fact that your postings are intelligent, genius and totally beyond question.  If they do question it then they are idiots!.

I don't use the ignore function. I prefer to pick and choose who the moron of the day is and manually ignore them! There are some pretty consistent winners though.[]

Am I on anyone's list? I don't know. They wouldn't answer if I was.

Its getting harder and harder to have decent conversations with anyone as so few people are open to different viewpoints and so many people are too willing to repeat verbatim other peoples thoughts. Yelling and namecalling has replaced conversation. The winner is the first person to mention his gun caliber.

I'll admit that I'm no Mensa, that's for sure.

But, if someone is going to challenge me with ad-hominem attacks, you can bet your bottom dollar I'll find the buttons to push.  There's really only a couple on here that do it (IMO of course) whenever they feel they are not making ground in an argument.

I'm not an attorney, never got past the first year of college (having to take care of a very sick mother limits your post-secondary choices).  But I do take course at TCC from time to time.  Am I rich?  Nope, but I also don't get so worked up over an internet forum that I feel the need to personally attack a poster.  Not enough days in my life to make that worthwhile.

Thanks for noticing. I can't take all the credit, though. My staff writers do most of the work...I just type what they tell me.

I refuse to get along with you, Tim, UNLESS you are willing to wear one of those sexy little teddy things in the window and be our collective Santa Baby.  

Otherwise, all bets are off, pally.

Yer honour, I object! Hullo! Ask around! You rode that U-verse thread pretty hard! But you were squealin like a pig: [SNORTS]'Admin: feel FREE to lock this thread . . . SHILL'!!! RHHHEEEEE!! OINK OINK! Ha! Just playing, H-bomb!!  

Terms of 'ignore' list, I have followed this board for years, and know that real annoying posters go away.  Or change their approach with a brand-new shiny avatar and sign-in name!  Which is reaaalllly beginning to sound like the best idea of all! Better start the debate over than refuse to engage at all, at any level, ESPECIALLY if your goal is to retaliate because you feel you were attacked.

Real shame, ain't it?  Can't we all just get along?

They either go away, or they act so over-the-top with personal attacks that the mods ban them (i.e. FOTD/AOX, FB).

It doesn't bother me that I made the ignore list.  I'm not out to make enemies, but I won't sit idly by either if someone tosses out a personal attack.  As I said before, life is too limited to worry about what other people think of you.

I'm on ever sane persons ignore list.

As I suspected, I'm not.

Why are there hearing aid ads on TV without subtitles?  (Must be aimed at the other family members.)

[Townsend]

I think I'd lose too much of the entertainment value by using the ignore list.

[Gaspar]

There's an ignore list?  I must have ignored it.

A writing staff?  You have a writing staff?  I just type what the voices tell me to do!  I thought EVERYONE did that.

So you hear voices, interesting.

I like to be wide open for all viewpoints. I don't like to censor anyone.
