Oh, wait a minute.



Anyway, I've been holding at 5 for most of the time that DU3 has been up and running. Clearly I need to try harder.

Although I do think may have landed on a few jury blacklists. I used to be on a jury every day, and now it's only once or twice a week. Fine with me, though. Most of my jury experience was refereeing slapfights anyway.

... (in case you didn't know what I was talking about) to put me on ignore, but I didn't think
THAT many would have an issue with simply not clicking on my posts.

I AM glad that they're ignoring me as otherwise, I might still have to deal with all the "I KNOW
I don't HAVE to click on your posts, but when I do, I get annoyed" complaints.
.
.
.
I understand not wanting people to SCREAM at the room with the Caps Lock, but having to
scroll down a little (I actually use the scroll bar to the right and it's generally not more than
one click) -- THAT seems a little picky to me... but that's why they make chocolate and manila.

I've NEVER put anyone on ignore (not even as a test, so I don't know what the process is like).
I can simply bypass their posts if I find them to be consistently annoying.

BTW, who was the OP?

then there are 3 tabs one of which is "Transparency". Click on that

Scroll down to the bottom where it says "show me my transparency page" and click on that. It shows everything about you there.

I can imagine my being a member of the DNC and a few other "establishment" groups might cause some extremists to not want anything to do with me.

I was feeling a little bummed when I was holding steady at 2, I obviously wasn't hardcore enough! Now I'm up to 4 and feeling as though my wishy washy attitude is finally peeling away. I'm ready for a good debate now...

I mean 2 is pathetic. 4 is getting there... congrats on your 7!

FWIW, I have nobody on ignore. I enjoy seeing what everyone says even if I vehemently disagree with it. Now if GD would only cooperate, bring on another burka thread or something about "militant atheists" - that would definitely ramp me up on the ignores

Which surprises me it's that low given the accusations that get launched because of the misunderstanding behind the meaning of my name.

I have nobody on ignore myself. I want to see the stupid shit that those whom I loathe spout, so I can rebut it.

You just don't see your own posts anywhere?

Edit:

"Selecting this option prevents you from seeing another member. While logged in, you will not be able to see any of their posts or replies to their posts. This option includes Block Mail -- whether you are logged in or not, the member will not be able to send you DU Mail messages. You may use this option on an unlimited number of members."

Interesting. You won't even see the replies to you own posts which would also be hidden.

Sun May 6, 2012, 10:23 PM
May 2012

it was three, and I wondered who those people might be.

However, after posting in a couple of OPs by one person and getting no reply, I'm pretty confident I know one person that's ignoring me.

And the thing is, I have never been nasty to this person. I make it a point to never be nasty to anyone. Yes, I've gotten into some discussions, but I do my best to be civil. Never had a post hidden.

So I find it pretty sad that someone ignores me because I'm honest (but civil) about what I see that doesn't make sense. I guess some people only want to hear what reinforces their own opinions.

Tell them lies if it's what they want to believe...

every time I make another thirty posts here on DU3

Translation: we should expect that over 2000 DUers will have me on ignore by the time my DU3 post count reaches my DU2 levels!
