Okay, how many do YOU have on ignore?

[UnrepentantLiberal]

I have 3. But only for entering every thread like a bull in a china shop and countering every argument with a wall of text. I'm happy to be blissfully unaware of their posts.

I'm unlikely to add anymore. I'm generally against blocking other users. I've argued with people, even had them tell me to fuck off, and later ended up being friends with them. (I've even laughed a few times when people aimed a profanity-laden post at me.)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. I did have two...

One came off at once, as I realized the person was not going to be a problem.

The other one came off the list later, when I realized the same thing about that person.

I really rarely use it. I'm usually too curious to see what they're saying!

[Tx4obama]

2. I have ZERO on ignore, but 12 people have me on ignore :(

I guess they will just be missing out on the great things I say LOL

[kentauros]

3. Well, you know how some DUers feel about us Texans...

[Tx4obama]

4. Well one of these days Texas will be a BLUE state again ...

and then they're gonna be sorry LOL

[MiddleFingerMom]

12. I don't dislike Texans... just people who will drink Lone Star or Pearl beer.

Um...

50. aww come on now

when I worked at 6 Flags Over Texas in the early 80s there was a convenience store behind the employee parking lot that sold Lone Star for 5 bucks a case. That was a pretty important quality in a beer for us poor minimum wagers. My friend always complained it tasted like refried beans and I never could understand why that was a bad thing. I love refried beans!


Nowadays when I want to relive the old days I go get some BBQ brisket and a Shiner Bock.

But that's only because I can't find Lone Star in Florida.

[MiddleFingerMom]

51. Same thing for us students who ran out of beer - a local bar sold 6-packs of...

.
.
.
... Old Milwaukee for $3 until 2 AM. I had a SERIOUS reputation for
not EVER wanting the party to end. When we were down to Old
Milwaukee -- the party was OVER for me.
.
Medic training at Ft Sam Houston outside of San Antonio -- the
lunch trucks (after 4 PM) would come around with HUNDREDS of
Lone Stars and Pearls stuck in crushed ice.
.
I tried one of each and learned it can't get HOT enough to make
one of those beers palatable -- and I'm no beer snob... one of my
favorites now is Miller High Life Light (not Lite) in a bottle.
.
So refreshing and tasty -- reminds me of the best beer I've ever
had -- at a microbrewery in Moab, Utah.

[OriginalGeek]

64. lol, I'd probably love Miller High Life except

I once had a room-mate (during those same Lone Star Six Flags days) who drank nothing but MHL and that summbitch still owes me 180 bucks for rent. I can't see it without thinking of him and it irritates me to no end.

It's been thirty years ago. I should prolly let it go.

[Vanje]

25. Is there a way for one to tell how many are ignoring one?

Inquiring minds!

[Wait Wut]

29. Go to your Profile...

Go to Transparency and click on "See my Transparency Page" or sumthin like that. It tells you there.

Two people are ignoring me. Pretty sure I know one, not sure who the other is. Hopefully, it isn't you or you won't get this well informed, considerate reply.

[Vanje]

33. Thanks! Nope. Its not me.

I'm still stumbling around DU3 a bit.

I see I have one ignorer.
I don't have anyone currently in my ignore que.

[Wait Wut]

28. I can't see what this person wrote...

j/k

[BootinUp]

5. ME? 0, but 3 people are ignoring my excellent posts.

[TreasonousBastard]

6. Nobody- just don't see any point to it.

[hlthe2b]

7. None, but...

My peeve is those who continue to argue, when there is nothing to argue--no point of disagreement... As though they have some bizarre need to be "hyper-right." (sanctimonious). There are a couple of those, I am sorely tempted to ignore, I must say. But, I haven't...

[UnrepentantLiberal]

10. I've never seen the point of an endless

internet argument. When you've already made your points, why keep going? But some people seem to enjoy it. When it turns into nothing more than getting the last word in I make a flippant post and go on my merry way.

[LeftishBrit]

8. One; and I'm also being ignored by one

I had two on my list at one point, but one got TS'd.

I don't put people on iggy very easily. To achieve that hallowed status, people have to not just hold views to which I object, or to be rude, or even to engage in personal attacks. They have to actively bait. If people come along gratuitously taunting or trying to get a rise out me, or more generally of a group with different views to themselves, that's when I'll decide that iggy is best.

[Behind the Aegis]

9. I am surprised by both.

No-one on ignore, but ignored by one as of yesterday, and "PM ignore" by three, which I find odd as I rarely PM people unless PM'd first. Though, there are a few exceptions.

I think ignore lists should alse be made transparent. Just my opinion.

[pacalo]

11. None.

But...during the 2004 Democratic primaries, I had one of the rudest posters on ignore who continuously got away with insulting other DUers. I kid you not, every post he/she posted had a I'm-the-smartest-person-here-&-you're-not-&-I'll-tell-you-why tone. When someone merely stated a different opinion, he/she gave them the Triumph-the-Insult-Dog treatment, complete with a potty-mouth vocabulary. It was all the more embarrassing when the insulted poster seemed unfamiliar with the rude poster & was obviously taken aback.

[bigwillq]

14. 5 or 6 (nt)

[comipinko]

15. None.

what is the point?

[CTyankee]

16. None. I never have put anyone on Ignore.

If I don't like what someone says, I just, well, ignore them all by myself, like a big grownup!

[UnrepentantLiberal]

18. I'll bet if lived with you I'd wish I had an ignore button.

[CTyankee]

26. who, me? why, I am delightful to live with!

You are missing a real treat!

[UnrepentantLiberal]

27.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

17. zero

zip zilch nada

[ohiosmith]

19. Zero! Never have, never will.

[warrior1]

20. zero

[geardaddy]

21. zero, nil, nada, dim, null, ling

[auntAgonist]

22. For the first time in many years I have ONE person on my ignore list. I'd never used it before now.

I'm probably on a few though



aA

[freshwest]

23. IDK. Trolls/people I'm too busy/lazy to alert on. Why make more work for juries? Meh.

[Shrek]

24. Zero

Never been able to figure out why ignoring anyone requires technological assistance.

[Wait Wut]

31. +1

Even the most annoying posters have good points, occasionally.

[Wait Wut]

30. Zero

I had one once, but it was only because he was seriously not listening to me and was driving me bonkers. I took him off a month or so later. Haven't seen him on DU3, though.

[Orrex]

32. Just you, you stinker.

And good riddance, if you ask me.

[UnrepentantLiberal]

34. Who, me?

Don't pretend you can't hear me.

[Kali]

35. I just put somebody on pm ignore, my first remotely self-placed ignore ever

used to use the buddy list for "suspects" - that is what I did just now. saw a brand new member post something I felt suspicious about, though it wasn't "alertable" will check status later as I think it will likely be gone.

[MiddleFingerMom]

66. Has anyone seen Kali? She's not responding to my PM's? Who the hell am I gonna "drunk-PM" now? n/t

[UnrepentantLiberal]

36. Okay, I took them off ignore to read one of

their posts. But one of them is already pissing me off again. On a fast track back to the ignore list.

[one_voice]

37. I have no one on ignore...

and no one is ignoring me. I feel like an outsider.

[BiggJawn]

38. 2 clowns.

Who try to turn every thread in the Gungeon into a a "I'm Rubber, you're Glue" pissing match.

Cuts down on the amount of verbiage I have to wade through.

[Stuart G]

39. Ignore... what? who? when? Why? where? How?

not today,not yesterday, probably not tomorrow..too far ahead for me..

[Neoma]

40. None...

As far as I can remember.

[eridani]

41. Zero. Never ignored anyone on DU2, and won't on DU3 either

2 have put me on ignore.

[oneshooter]

42. None. Yet. n/t

[applegrove]

43. I normally have 3 or 4. Then every so often I 'do an amnesty'. Some people find there way

back on. In one case, the seething hatred was so pronounced that I was too curious to put them on ignore. I wanted to see how inappropriate they would be the next day. Then they calmed down.

[greendog]

44. 3

[cordelia]

45. None at all.

[Lyric]

46. I don't have anyone on Ignore.

I used to have a huge Ignore list, but now that I'm a Host, that seems like a bad idea. Plus, if you put someone on Ignore, you can't be on a jury for any of their posts.

[susanr516]

47. I have 2 on ignore at the moment

because both have been creating multiple threads on what I consider to be a fairly trivial issue. I usually don't leave anyone on ignore more than a week or two. In many cases, I find they have been banned. No one is ignoring me, but I don't post a lot.

[murielm99]

48. I have none.

When we switched to DU3, I took off a couple. Usually, the same two or three end up on ignore. There are a couple that I won't put on ignore, no matter how bad they get. I am biding my time. They will be shown up as trolls sooner or later, and I want to witness it.

The people I sometimes have on ignore are not there because they disagree with me. They are on ignore because they disagree via personal attack. One of them is a respected DU member.

Some people just get away with anything. They are not necessarily always repubs.

[RZM]

49. Zero

Three have me on ignore. A week ago it was only one! Looks like I've had quite a week

[backwoodsbob]

52. zero

[Renew Deal]

53. Same as I had at DU2. 0

[Ikonoklast]

54. None. Three people are Ignoring me.

Which I actually find somewhat amusing.

[GoCubsGo]

56. I have one ignoring me, too.

I find it hilarious, as I tend to try to avoid creating enemies. Whatever.

[GoCubsGo]

55. None.

I prefer to hide annoying threads rather than individuals. It's usually the same handful of attention-hungry serial posters that have their threads hidden, but every once in a while, they have something useful to say.

I don't like the "walls of text", either. Too hard on the eyes. Unless they provide a link where I can read at the source, I tend to just scroll over them.

[sibelian]

57. none for now...

I had one or two on du2. Given the amnesty there is a specific individual whom I will ignore INSTANTLY should they ever appear here but I don't think they will.

[bif]

58. Four so far

But in the old DU I had about 25 on my list.

[femmocrat]

59. Zero. n/t

[L0oniX]

60. About 80 but at least one third of them have been TS'd.

[Skip Intro]

61. Zero. Seems to defeat my idea of a discussion, akin to sticking one's fingers in one's ears and

shouting "la la la la...I can't hear you" to people with different opinions.

Imho, of course.

I much prefer a rambunctious open discussion and exchange of ideas to an echo chamber.

[one_voice]

62. I don't have any...

I don't plan to put anyone on either. If I don't want to be bothered I'll scroll by their posts. I don't have to respond to them either.

I just found out that 3 people have me on ignore. Guess I"m not as nice as I thought.

I have a friend that's conservative....the first time we ever met it was full on verbal brawl. We ended up being friends, we rarely discuss politics and when we do, we jab each other. He'll never change my mind, I'll never change his. He was a great friend when I lost my granny this year.

I know we're not supposed to have cons as friends, but for some reason we are. He's my only con friend too.

[OriginalGeek]

65. Nothing wrong with that.

lol, well not much. My co-worker and friend is an atheist tea bagger repub. I don't understand it and I stopped trying. But he didn't even hesitate on his day off to come help me dig out my septic tank and replace a sump pump. I don't know if you've ever been in a septic tank but it takes a pretty damn good friend to volunteer to help with that shit.

[eppur_se_muova]

63. Just you. :^D

Kidding! Two surviving; the other TS'ed. I'm hoping that will be 1 and 2 soon.
