Ignore List

Zero, but there is hope.

Everybody in this thread will now be on my ignore list and everyone else should do the same. Wait……….that means everyone in this thread would miss out on my brilliant posts and wisdom.

All joking aside I have nobody on my ignore list and if I start to read a post I don’t like I skip over it and move on.

My reason for ignoring somebody is that they insult others on here. Not that I'm bothered by what is said about me, or what I'm posting.

I find it annoying to read their replies to an question, or topic, and it's always his stuff is better then yours, and some insult about what you are doing is wrong, or what you don't know as much as he does. But he never actually shows what he has, or posted of doing anything.

I think the comment about some old guy sitting alone on his computer, and being desperate for attention, is pretty close to reality.

None. Thought about putting Muhammad on it for kicks

This would be a good one for next April 1, we could all put him on ignore.

Do you think he would miss us?

Sorry for the dumb question, but I don't know how it works. How do you read a post by someone that is ignored? Does the post still show up, but without any text or what?

When there's a post from someone you have on ignore, the post is blanked out but the software adds a link you can click that says "view post".

There are a few posters who I tend to skip right over, but generally believe that everyone has the right to say what they think
I thought about putting someone on ignore once, but decided not to. A short time later he posted something timely and on point; which made me glad I didn't.

Pretty much exactly mine. Still zero. I thought about blocking the but I just scroll past everything he posts that is a cut & paste job. Sometimes when it is a real topic and not political he has useful things to say, so that is why I didn't block him.

There was one poster several years back that was abusive to several members (not me) and I thought seriously about blocking him but then Muhammed banned him for the same behavior, so became moot.

Nobody in recent years. I like to learn about all sides of an issue. But I skip over a few posters after I get a sense of what's on their mind today.

Back when EV's were new there was someone who was brutally ignorant on the subject. When I posted that Volvo closed their gas engine design branch and further development would be all electric, he replied to me that I would be found dead in a dumpster if I continued to talk like that. Two members I don't know, independently sent me PM's saying they would find and notify his local law enforcement if I were to suddenly drop out of sight, his rant was that offensive.

I have no interest in listening to BS like that. Put him on Ignore.

Nobody else, since. I've learned a lot about tractors etc from folks whose political opinions don't seem reasonable me, or whose good advice comes wrapped in a boast.

Like I've said occasionally - we're all in this together, we might as well get along.

As one gets older and older, it seem that one finds it easy to ignore a lot of stuff without even trying.
