This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Luminous Animal (a host of the General Discussion forum).

I am just going to block them. There are far more inteligent and awesome people on here than the mean, cold spirited ones. So back I am : )

1. I have decided not to worry too much that you're posting a Meta thread in GD

It's Friday.

[darkangel218]

3. I didnt know i was supposed to post in Meta

[Motown_Johnny]

20. That is why your "farewell" post was locked. Making the same mistake again

Maybe read up on the rules before calling others "Bad apples".

[darkangel218]

22. So am i a bad apple for posting in the wrong forum?

Gosh, go ahead and lock this one too.

2. Snicker

4. If you ignore the idiots and trash the stupid threads your DU experience

becomes a pleasant one.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Good for you, my dear darkangel218!

Ignore is indeed your friend.

Welcome back!

6. I have decided that borderline personality disorder is probably underdiagnosed

and that many lives would be improved if we worked a little harder at recognizing this in our young people - and then provided them the help and support they needed to reach their full potential before things started to go so terribly wrong.

28. Werent you the one who offered to send me help to.care for the stray kitten i look after at work?

I hope you didn't take offense I denied your help with the cat food.

7. I agree!!!!!

I have been blocking those who use words that would make a sailor blush!!!!!!!!! I understand freedom speech, but when it is not appropriate thats where I draw the line!

[pintobean]

9. How long can that line be?

You just joined yesterday.

[bluedigger]

15. DU's a busy port.

Aargh!

[Alduin]

21. Well fuck, I have to watch my fucking mouth then.

[riderinthestorm]

23. FUCK THAT SHIT!!!!

We have a weekly contest in the lounge to see how many "ignores" we've managed to score this week. I've only been able to add two additional ignores to my pathetic total of 7 and I really need another in order to hang with the "pros" (like California Peggy who always wins every week dammit! oops! another swear word, naughty me )

[imanamerican63]

25. Blocking!!!!!

Amazing how we as adults, can act like a children!

[edhopper]

10. That is the stupidiest thing I ever heard.

What are you, a cowardly cretin that can't stand it when someone disagrees with your brilliant thoughts.
Why don't you crawl into bed and pull your head under the cover until the bad internet bullies go away.

Just kidding

God move, keep the chat intelligent and informed my dark friend.

[ibegurpard]

11. whatever works for you...

[demosincebirth]

12. that's what the "ignore" is for.

[randome]

13. I have always maintained that blocking is a cop-out.

I will never block anyone or any thread because I want to know everything, the good as well as the bad.

Just my point of view, in case you find it useful.

[revolution breeze]

14. I have lurked for years.

Then became a member but still don't post much, but read DU daily!

[Electric Monk]

17. I found that thread, for context. You seem to have a pretty thin skin.

Fuck you all. Hypocrites. Alert me all you want , you're not worth my time.

While I was looking, I found your GBCDU thread as well...

Hidden by a vote of 5-1.


Hmmm. Context.

[darkangel218]

18. Yes i do. i have no idea how not to be so sensitive

I guess its because I always feel inferior, for not being born in US. I've encountered so much discrimination in real life, I didn't know a liberal forum can be the same. But yah, I need to thicken my skin somehow

[obamanut2012]

24. Meta Thread

[Lebam in LA]

27. What is Meta Thread?

I feel so stupid right now

[riderinthestorm]

30. I'm guessing they mean this OP should be in the Meta forum and not GD. nt

[KansDem]

26. Well, as the song goes...
