Anyone else who would never put someone on ignore?

[rumguy]

Even if I loathed and detested a person I can't see what good it would do me to not know what they were saying...

There's no one I dislike on DU - but just hypothetically speaking...I can't imagine ever using the ignore feature.

[Rocinante]

1. Me

I've said it before-I have not nor shall I ever put anyone on ignore.

[AlFrankenFan]

2. Same

It's just something I have no need for.

[bubblesby2002]

3. Me too

Why would I?

[PartyPooper]

4. I just have a remarkable memory and can predict "certain posters".

But, I don't put them on "ignore"...literally speaking.

;-)

[TroubleMan]

5. Never have - never will

Don't see the point of it.

[MissMarple]

6. Only if I was being harassed. But, that is not a problem.

So,...no.

[Van Helsing]

7. I have only one person on ignore...

other than that, I'm good. :)

[kimchi]

8. I also have only one.

I just wanted to see how the system works. I left it that way because it seems nicer without having to read her junk.

[Mobius]

Oh god it's me isn't it?

:cry:

[kimchi]

11. I can't heeeeeeeeeeeear you!

:evilgrin:

[Mobius]

19. Well apparently its not me

:beer:

[Donkeyboy75]

23. Mmmmmm, kimchi!

Cabbage is my favorite, but radish is a close second!!! :hi:

[strategery blunder]

9. I have by accident

But I would not do so deliberately. Those I have put on ignore through an errant click were removed from the list within 30 seconds.

I don't see the point unless someone is threatening me. I have yet to encounter this problem.:evilgrin:

[seventhson]

10. me

[Delano]

12. Me. You don't need a button to ignore someone.

Just ignore them.

[rucky]

13. Ignore is for pussies

wonder how many folks will shut me off for that one?

[Endangered Specie]

14. There are alot of DUers who I think need their head examined...

but I never Ingore anyone, I got a thick skin.

[The Magistrate]

15. Have Never Used That Function, Sir

And never will.

"You can't make things fool-proof. They're too ingenious."

[Solon]

16. Put myself on ignore...

talk about confusing. ;)

[MichaelHarris]

17. I don't

put peeps on ignore either.

[TSIAS]

18. I've used it once

I really don't mind reading stuff on the boards, but I use it more often to block personal correspondence via PM.

[neoteric lefty]

20. I want to hear if someone is talking about me n/t

n/y

[TreasonousBastard]

21. I ignore...

half the people here, but nobody's on "ignore."

[Donkeyboy75]

22. I'm with you.

You can always learn from smart people, even if they disagree with you and are a bit inflammatory. And the idiots? They're entertaining. :P

[Spirochete]

24. I never have.

I might consider it if someone posted a lot of long messages in all capital letters. those hurt my head a little bit to look at. Other than that, naw. We don't need no stinkin' ignore....

[Seldona]

25. Haven't at DU.

But when I go to the Yahoo boards, which is way to much these days, I wear out the ignore button.

Troll city.

[ashling]

26. did somebody say something?

OH! it was you. I wasn't ignoring you, honest. Its just that pesky parallell universe.

[SOteric]

27. I absolutely *love* the ignore option.

I think y'all are nutty for avoiding it. No, I don't have anyone on ignore right now, but I have in the past.

It's a lovely feature designed to help a person avoid being rude or even getting tombstoned for smacking the verbal crap out of someone who seems to richly deserve it.

It's got nothing to do with whether I like a person, or even whether I've got thick skin. The single individual who long ago made it to my Bozo Bin did so by spectacularly and persistently trying to push my buttons. I figured sooner or later I'd come home after a pissy day and he/she/it would be ripe for the smackdown he'd been begging for. Ignore lifted that fear from me gently and put a soothed smile in it's place.

The Ignore feature, - I love it. I recommend it. Because everyone gets rubbed the wrong way by someone and GD is a living example of how little restraint y'all really have. :hi:

[Lizz612]

28. My world is filtered enough

no need for me to impose more filters on it. As for the "keep myself from smacking the idiots" argument I've never gotten a warning for anything I've said. I guess none of it was quite rude enough.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

29. No. No one has ever pissed me off enough.

This is the internet for christ's sake, not real life. I see no need for the ignore function.

[Blue-Jay]

30. Nobody on ignore.

There are a few whose threads I routinely block, though. There's only so much drivel a man can stand.

[Shananigans]

31. I have never ignored or blocked a thread...

I don't see the point. I mean if someone is saying something ridiculously idiotic, I enjoy having the option to fel superior to their stupidity and gloat over their misinformed status.

I concur. Ignore is for wussies.
