    If we could ignore the avatar and still see the post, you might be taken more seriously.

    I have one on ignore. (No, I won't say who it is. Somebody who just seemed to be nasty for nasty's sake.) I tried to put another one on ignore, but it told me that I can't ignore moderators. (Like hell I can't!)

    (Not you James. Generally speaking, you make very good posts.)

    i don't have anyone on ignore. personal i find it an admission of lack of self control and an inability to conduct oneself like an adult.

    And if they person they're ignoring has those problems, why should we bother with them?

    cute. you know random attempting at implied personal attacks are one of the things that you know fall under that. is there any particular reason your trying to start a fight or is it for shits and giggles?

    Yeah, I'm a bit confused too.

    I don't put people on ignore because I lack self-control; I put people on ignore because they lack self-control.
    I give them every opportunity to show they have some adultness in them, often it takes months or years before I'll despair and decide that their contributions do far more harm than good.

    This seems specious.

    What Gawzilla said is perfectly inline with my views - and I am neither making implied personal attacks nor trying to start a fight.

    i view it as this way. if i have self control i won't need to ignore somebody i will just scroll past their posts. if i don't i need the crutch to stop responding.


    not really. if i said i favored gun control and than someone said to me people who favor gun control should be shot the implied threat is obvious. by its self their is nothing wrong with it. the post he was specifally responding to makes it a problem.


    admittedly i might be a little touchy here because of issues with moderation here. i've seen myself blamed for another posters blatant personal attacks and trolling against me. I've had death threats ignored. so ill admit you may be reading things right and i'm might be reading them wrong in that cause i will ive gawzilla my apoligies.

    Your strawman is on fire.

    strawman? im going to need an explanation of where you feel im misrepresenting your arguments to say something your not and refuting that instead of what you actually said?

    That's a far cry from 'lack of self control and inability to conduct oneself like an adult'.

    that comment was mostly in reference to one particular poster who despite painting him self as well smarter and better than everyone cause of his age generally just throws tempur tantrums at anyone who deigns to disagree with him. I took zillas comment like his tendency to jump into threads just to attack people.

    I often forget what I posted yesterday. That's the equivalent of ignoring myself.

    I'm trying to perfect ignoring myself in all cases.

    As that, I think, would make life so much easier.
