How big is your ignore list?

[WeDidIt]

I've got sixteen on mine, not a one has a tombstone.

How about yours? Take a moment to count and check how many have been tombstoned, I recently cleaned six tombstones out of mine.

[Peacetrain]

1. I have six.. and that helped.. Maybe I should check..

[Cha]

2. Innumerable.

That's why I'm semi-blissed here.O8)

[HughMoran]

18. same here

...though I have it to such a science that only the perpetually angry who never contribute anything of value are on my list.

[rebel with a cause]

3. I have around 128 (you must not be trying)

and that is because I didn't bother to put any more on today. ;)

I have lost very few off my list over the last two months to the moderators. I don't think there is much hope of these people leaving unless they decide to go so they will remain on my list. This tells you how bad this place has become because with that many people on my list, there were an equal amount if not more on the one thread today attacking the president. Makes you think.

[DFLforever]

4. I only have four but I'm not around much anymore.

[SeattleGirl]

5. I had 38, but two have been TS'd, so I'm down to 36.

Some of them I had on ignore during the primaries; I cleaned it out after they were over. But it's been filling up again.

[cliffordu]

6. I add them to my friends list.

or whatever it's called. I check up on 'em once in a while just to see who's been served.

Nice!!

[Cha]

8. lol..one way to keep

on top of it. I just got inspired & checked my ignores for deadwood and found 10 before I got to the 1/2 way mark and then I got bored.

All primaries'..I didn't even recognize most of them.

[rebel with a cause]

10. that is smart

That make it a lot easier to check on them. Wow...now do I have the patience to do all those names...wow.

[nevergiveup]

7. Zero

I have been here for 6 years and can't remember ever putting anyone on ignore. I need to start now but I fear it is too late. There are so many and so little time.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. I finally gave in and put somebody on it just now.

Sometimes you just don't want to look at crazy shit.

[azmouse]

11. 205

Most of those will never come off ignore.
They have been there for years and I have no desire to see their crap ever again.

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

41. You should go through your list occasionally....

I'll bet you'll find that many of them have been Tombstoned. I add a 1-2 people to my list nearly every week, but it seems like 1-2 get shown to the exit. So it's kind of like a revolving door.

I have a core of about 15 people - high post counts, so they're not just troll disruptors -- who will probably be on my list permanently.

[azmouse]

43. I did that this past weekend.

Sadly no one was tombstoned. I removed about 10 low-post trolls who probably will not be back.
I too have a core of high-post people who will not be removed from the ignore list.

on edit: there was one tombstoned person on my ignore list but I found out about her from a post on GD.

[bigwillq]

12. 14

None have been tombstoned.

[Born_A_Truman]

13. Haven't counted

But I get to delete one today! :bounce:

[sandnsea]

14. Only 40, amazing!

And most are because they get stuck on an agenda and can't get off, like posting nonstop gun porn or something.

I've had A LOT more at various points in time.

[RoyGBiv]

15. 5 ...

All of them permanent residents. I cleaned out the temporary "I just can't tolerate this shit right now" list the other day.

I don't generally ignored people I think are cruising for a granite slab. I tend to try to make that happen and so need to see when they do post.

[treestar]

16. None right now

I cleared it. So far I'm tolerating them all, but then I eventually get into a mood and start putting them on ignore.

[ginnyinWI]

17. I started a list, but there were just too many.

I would have been clicking for hours.

[Hekate]

19. I've lost count. It's got to be at least 4 dozen; more than a dozen added in the past few days.

By the way, my Iggy list is not alphabetized, nor is it sorted chronologically. How do I alphabetize the thing so I can more readily check the status of these folks?

Hekate

[FrenchieCat]

20. I have 15! was 16, but one was TSed....

Just checked.

[akbacchus_BC]

21. I have never put anyone in ignore, I just ignore their comments at

times but respond when they really post a lot of tripe.

I am not a model poster anyways and most likely, am on some DUers ignore list, LOL

[Hekate]

22. I have one question: how can I alphabetize my Ignore list? Seriously, I need to.

[rebel with a cause]

28. I don't know that you can because I would like that also.

:shrug:

[Hekate]

30. It's weird, because my Buddy list is automatically alphabetized

[rebel with a cause]

32. The buddy list allows you to look at their profile easily also.

it is just a better system.

[lamp_shade]

23. A week ago I had 84 (5 or 6 of these were TS'd). I cleaned it out and started over. Today

I have 54 (after removing 2 that had been tombstoned). I've only added 2-3 in the last couple of days. Things seem fairly tame now and my gut tells me that a number of disruptors have "moved on". BTW, one of those recently TS's was a biggie.

[Adelante]

24. 127

And that's only since the primaries ended, when I cleared it last.

[rebel with a cause]

29. I wonder how many of yours match my 128.

:hi:

[Adelante]

36. I got it down to 100

Cleaning out Tombstones :hi:

[rebel with a cause]

38. Well, that is twentyseven that doesn't match mine,

I wish that was not true. :cry:

[Kaleva]

25. Zero

Have yet to place anyone on ignore since I became a member. I do ignore some posters the old fashioned way which is simply to pass over what they post.

[Robb]

26. I cleared it only this week. It WAS quite large.

But ultimately I felt I was ignoring the problem. Actually discovering this forum helped get me to that decision.

It's a problem that can't be ignored any more.

[Cary]

27. Your browser's scroll bar is an effective ignore feature

That said I do have 6 on ignore. I don't venture into GD or GD P much these days and usually it's only if I see a post by a BOGer. No one on my ignore list has been tombstoned.

What exactly is that anyway? Is it the same as being banned?

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

42. Yes.

Your posting right are eliminated and, if I remember correctly, you have to create a new account if you wish to continue posting. It's been a while since I took a turn as Moderator -- Kephra was my Co-Moderator, to give you an idea or how long ago that was -- so they may have changed the rules since then.

[Ohio Joe]

31. Only one right now

For the longest time, I would not use the ignore feature. Then I came across an open Ron Paul supporter (I think it was about a year ago) and decided it was the right time to start using it.

[Cha]

34. OT.. So you get to

vote for Martha on Tuesday?

[Ohio Joe]

35. That would be a big yes

The other two voters in my home are also voting for Coakley. I talked about my feeling the other day in GD:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x7475318

[Bobbie Jo]

33. Zero, now.

The one and only I had on ignore, was recently TS'ed. That one was particularly nasty.

[Fire1]

37. Only cleaned one out of mine. n/t

[JeffR]

39. Never quite big enough

though it's gargantuan. And still somehow, GD and GDP remain mostly unbearable.

[berni_mccoy]

40. I don't ignore.
