What Types Of Threads Are You Most Likely To Hide?
What specific topics or generic types have you clicking that little X-box? (Be nice, now... don't call-out any specific users by name*.)

-- Allen

*like me for instance.

20. There is???
I think it's a matter of semantics. But I do get into either...but maybe that info should go into a private email. :-)

5. The only one I've ever ignored, warned me to ignore it...
I think it was last week, and it concerned hunting. :)

Didn't even enter the thread.

11. Never used the x-box
Tried using the ignore button but eventually took them off. Just in case they were talking about me.

15. I don't even want to mention it, in case it brings the topic back.
Yes, it outraged/dismayed/disgusted me THAT much. Unfortunately, we didn't have the hide-a-thread option then. The only threads I've ever hidden has been the threads that have subject lines soooooooo long that it throws the rest of the page off kilter.

27. I've never used that feature but Reagan is causing me to contemplate it
It's bad enough that it's all the media is talking about but there are way too many Reagan threads for my taste here at DU; especially in the lounge. I go to the lounge to escape (and discuss important things like pets and pop culture :-) ).

I've been tempted to hide obvious flame bait threads too but I just don't click on them instead.
