How come most of the guys using the ignore button look like this?

Slopat, did you have to post your high school prom photo? Really? We know you need/want attention but this is a bit much...

Yeah whatever. I have 44 names on my ignore list.
Often when someone crosses the line and over-steps the rules I just round file them. It should not be taken personally, but there are some people I want to listen to and others I don't want to listen to.

Many are old trolls who only showed up long enough to get banned and aren't even around anymore. Others are people who's opinions I just don't want to read.

Ironically Tabs was one of the first on the list but he is now one of my favorite posters. I really enjoy reading his stuff. Did he change or did I change? Doesn't matter.

I enjoy this board more if I can selectively look at their posts if i want to, but don't have to scan through what I normally concider drivel if I don't want to.

If someone does not like my posts, by all means put me on your ignore list. It won't hurt my feelings, I encourage it.
I would rather have some people ignoring my posts than replying to them with weak replies, insults, and other attempts to troll.

Plus it is funny to open a christian bashing or similar thread and see the same ignored names over and over. I think my record is 9 ignored posts in a row.
I know what they think. I know what they are going to say. I know I will not agree with it. I know their posts are going to be insulting. I know they are going to say something in an attempt to twist reality or change the subject or turn it into a personal attack when their arguments are completely shot down with facts.
Why bother? Life's too short.

Crickets are better than someone saying "I can make you squeel like a pig"...

Sammy,
All I was saying is that we hadn't had a christian bashing thread for a while and I'm kind of missing reading the responses.
I followed that by a rather poor pun.
Nothing deep or meaningful, just careless banter really...

Everyone has an opinion. I will usually read them all. But lets not get carried away. They do not all have value.

I can't believe people get angry enough to censor another ones comments.

It's like having mom set the cable tv so her baby won't see anything violent, or sexual.

Nothing to do with being angry or censorship. After a while, it becomes obvious that some posters offer little of value in their posts other than being irritating, opinionated and repetitive. Much like small children who should be sent out to play and be seen not heard.

You need one of the perpetual motion free energy generators to use that button
