Trump’s Victory Is a Pivotal Turning Point in Human History

[Lando Lincoln]

Some years ago, a member was driving me crazy and I put the guy on ignore.  That was worse!  I could still see he had posted and people quoting him was just as bad.  I took him off "ignore" and lived with it. 

[thackney]

I kind of enjoy watching their impotent rage.

I just don't care about them enough to spend even that amount of time on their posts.  Nearly all have something to contribute, but some invest so much trash in their posting I gave up wading through the garbage.

It's for drones like Freepers who only want to hear "happy noises" in an echo chamber where "never a disparaging word is heard."

 

[mirraflake]

Nonsense.  Ignore is for sane people who want to stay that way.

Steven Crowder said it best. If you don't want to hear someone  argument you are a "kitty"  not wanting to hear any argument other than your own.

If one looks at MusicLady crosseyed, the forum owner will get on their case.

She  viciously  attacks other posters FIRST and when they push back she brings out the victim card...or she makes up things about them or twist what they said. Other have said the same thing other thna me.

I leave them on ignore, saves me time when the Trumpkins crawl into their echo chamber to pat themselves on the back, thinking they're "WINNING!"

There are only a handful of people here who require the Ignore feature, IMO, and more than a thousand who do not.

But life becomes much more pleasant if their posts aren't seen.  It has nothing to do with not being able to handle seeing their inanity, but rather, for me, it's a matter of valuing my own time and not wasting it on nonsense.


For the record.......... two of you whom I now have on Ignore have "mentioned" me on this thread.  My policy is not even to look at posts from people who have been so nasty that I've needed to block them out, so I have no idea why I was 'pinged'.

The two who have mentioned me on this thread, are among the nastiest.

Ergo, I will not waste my time on either of you, nor retaliate to your insults, regardless of the temptation. (I'm far more articulate and clever than either of you, and always win in a confrontation.  ^-^)

So..........if you have insulted or demeaned me with your post, or assaulted my character, tough beans.  There are hundreds of people on this forum I gladly have discussions with, even if/when there are strong disagreements.

Just not you two.

@mirraflake  @musiclady

She also starts calling in her "posse" to help her pile on. Her whole personality seems to be based on passive-aggressive behavior. Seems to me she misses high school  and the games she played there. The whole Viking Kitty Posse group at FR was composed of these clannish critters. To them,politics is about personality,not policy.

You noticed too,huh? I think it is called "projection".

Stay safe!

That's it.

It's not the STUPID accusation that we, who use the Ignore feature, desire an echo chamber (how lame is that, anyway??), it's just that we value our time too much to waste it on trash.

Those who are most Ignored on this forum don't have the self-awareness to realize that almost nothing they write is worth reading, so they whine about "safe spaces."

It's a joke.   

[musiclady]

Stay safe!

I'm both safe and happy, and that bugs my accusers most. 


Makes their seething anger even more intense, and not seeing it makes me smile.

@musiclady

Of course you are. You are smart,pretty,and people like you. Honest.

SOME people might conclude you are reading my posts while pretending to ignore me,and then attacking me through indirect posts while pretending to still be ignoring me.

Passive-aggressive professional victim.

LMAO.  You accuse others of whining about safe spaces when you put people on ignore.

I doubt she has me on ignore. Every time I mention her she blast back within 3 minutes. She is the type (harpy) that just has to see what another say about her.

@sneakypete

[jpsb]

Is it possible to discover who has you on ignore? I'm curious to know if I (the nicest and most polite poster) have made any ones ignore list.

Yup. She LOVES this stuff. It makes her feel important. No way in hell is she ignoring anyone.

I've thought it would be interesting to be able to see the number members that are ignoring a poster.  I think discovering who those members are would lead to problems.

@thackney

I don't think so. I know I have been on other forums where people would talk about how many people had them on ignore. Maybe those systems just noted how many members had you on ignore without telling you who they were? I never cared enough to look.

[Emjay]

I give people a chance ... a lot of chances.  But when they prove to me they are both ignorant and abusive ... and keep proving it, I put them on ignore.

Both Sneaky Pete and Mirraflake cannot stand it and they keep pinging me.  My curiosity is not provoked.  I haven't heard a word either of them has said in months.

That would violate current laws on PII.   

[thackney]

That would violate current laws on PII.

I'm not in favor of having the info provided, but I don't see how that would violate laws of Personally identifiable information.  Providing no information about the member other than the member's chosen public ID seems no different that the ability to mention them in an online post.

[Bigun]

I wish I could put this entire thread on ignore but unfortunately, I made the mistake of posting to it early on when it still had a topic.

I as well wish for that feature.
