5. ignore is for wimps
and first amendment haters... people who like first amendment zones like ignore.

13. nah
There are boring,boorish, tedious people here, just like anywhere else. "Ignore" is a lifesaver. Would that we could expunge the real world bores and boors so easily.

15. they are all part of me
When i'm attracting that with my written work, i'm not reaching deep enough to truth. I'm not honest enough. I see DU like a living shakespeare play, and i am a playwright, more than a character.

If a character gets boring, i change the scene.

I understand, NJCher, indeed... just thus far these years have i not yet met someone sooo persistant and sooo boorish that i would erase them for their one bright part.

Its like killing gollum for lack of pity.

There is no person on this earth i cannot stand toe to toe with in a free speech discussion. In life, i might be attacked, spat upon or beaten up, but without physical intimidation, the only weapon they have is my own foibles... and for this, i find a worthy opponent a graceful blessing... as they show me my fears, my egotism and my own blind and insensitive parts.

I respect voltaire too much not to take his advise.

Peace,

16. I think I am down to 2 on my list..

I wish we had a "word specific" ignore feature for subject lines only..

12. BUT... they will wake up,.....and...
each one will post 4 threads per person, and you will still feel ignored, because THIS thread will then be on page 7 :evilgrin:

14. If you agree with a post, but you don't have anything to add
then it seems a waste of "board space" to just say "I agree. nt". This might give the impression that no-one's read what you've written.

19. Yes and no...
The posts I really want replies to get very little attention, so sometimes I wonder...

But then I realize that I'm such a thread-killer, I can't be on too many Ignore lists (i.e., "Oh, look! Sapphocrat posted! Time to end this thread!").

We'll see how long this one lasts, now that I've posted to it. LOL

P.S. I have no one on Ignore -- "missing" posts make it hard to follow the flow of threads.
