Ignore List

[tradosaurus]

Should we guess who is ON more ignore lists?

I have my guesses...

5030?

I must be doing something wrong?

I have a bunch of users on my ignore list. Post about politics in a thread that's not about politics? Ignored. Say ignorant stuff about California? Ignored. Say something mean? Ignored. There's no reason I need to read any of that.

Sometimes I read posts from ignored users if the context seems to indicate they made a comment that's not in one of those categories. Sometimes I'm right, sometimes I'm wrong.

It'd be nice if there was a more nuanced way to curate what you read here. Ignore is a blunt instrument.

I need a good Jerky recipe guys, but not from anyone from California please.

You have no idea just how much of a chuckle I got from this, thank you.

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.
The only person I've had on ignore was DodgeMan, a couple of times. I didn't even know I had done it, somehow I hit the wrong sequence of buttons. He's one of the last people here I would want to block.

As a Mainer, I suspect when you read something that irritates you, you audibly mumble something slightly passive-aggressive under your breath and carry on with your day.

I do have some self awareness...

I don't have any on my list, but occasionally there are a couple users who tempt me with their bloviating.

I can see this sad old man sitting at his computer trying to convince all there words on his screen that he's rich and has all these toys and should apparently be listened to and I just take a moment to try and remember "don't be that guy".

Very occasionally he does have useful tidbits - probably more than I realize because I skip most of his posts.

It's not even that, it was just Forrest; I haven't seen the movie in years, and that GIF really hit the spot.

None. It's the internet for Christ sakes. If you get your feelings hurt on a tractor site, you need some help.

Some I skip over but to much good info from posters to have done things I may ask about to worry about my feelings.

I just don't take things personally, unless you bring my family in on it in a bad way.
