How many of you use the ignore setting?

[Rooster1908]

Thanks to you too Horrie. You’re one of the nicest, if not the nicest, posters on here and I have a lot of respect for you too.

Oi

[QUOTE=Andrew Walker;n981393]

It has clearly stated on several occasions that those who quote others she has blocked will also be blocked by her She has also stated she has blocked MR for that very reason

If she wants to put me on ignore I can’t stop that but an explanation would be nice. I even offered to sort this out via PM but I’m not even granted that courtesy. But apart from that being on ignore is one thing but being constantly gaslit and baited is uncalled for. I explained why I said something about the 4 month theme. I was not trying to cause drama or take over or throw a tanty. I was just questioning the fairness of it all. I was not after control. If I was I would not have been having a flippant joke about it with JFC. I apologise if it upset people. So I would appreciate if it stops being brought up as a means of trying to accuse me of being a trouble maker (not you but you know who). I should not have to keep explaining that.

Oi

Oops sorry. You’re also one of the nicest posters on here. My bad.

[mightyrooster]

You have it in a nutshell mate. Since it has come back I’ve pretty much ignored it by not quoting it not responding when I thought it was trying to bait me Basically giving it nothing in the way of attention. I’ve called it out today as it was upsetting MR a poster who like you said and I think all agree is one of the good ones on here

I have come to the conclusion this person is jealous of MR

There’s nothing at all to be jealous of. I’m a nobody and lead a very boring life. Yes and it does really upset me. We women are a lot more sensitive about these things than you blokes. Well at least I am. If I have to leave the music and dinner threads because I am made to feel excluded it will be very disappointing. I’ll then have to make do with daily reports in the weather thread!

I think you’ve pretty much seen nobody else bar one is excluding you. Unfortunately that person has every right just as you and I do to choose not to talk to you or anyone else for that matter. You can’t make or force someone to talk or be friends with another It just doesn’t work that way The way I see it is nobody owes anyone an explanation even if some consider this the polite thing to do Funny though when I did the exact same thing with them by explaining my position last year I was accused of lying. The baiting of you and even I is for attention It wasn’t getting any and resorted to that

The issue here is that this person is trying to get others to exclude or ignore you by threatening those who speak with you or those quote you that they too will be ignored What you need to realise is nobody is listening to these threats The way it appears to me is that this person is the one with real issues Not you

That’s it…

I’m curious what the chief blocker itself thinks about all this.

thoughts Sally???

LOL Kingsley aka Sally does not threaten others who quote those he blocks with being blocked unlike this other poster

I really should be going to bed but it’s been a stressful day. Yes I get you can’t make people be your friend. But I sure as hell will not put up with the constant baiting and snide commentary hidden in double meanings, which is aimed at provoking me, and trying to tarnish my character and intentions for the purpose of turning other posters against me.

Also I actually suspect Izzy does have me blocked. Maybe he thinks I’m one of Paddo’s alleged 6 aliases.

But sally was the original blocker and set the example to others who side with its ‘controversial’ views on using the ignore button.

[Andrew Walker]

Personally I do not find the use of the blocking function controversial But I can see how some do. What I find unacceptable and have spoken out against is the threats to other users that they to will be blocked if they quote someone one has blocked This can do untold damage to the one being blocked as if others don’t quote them even if it’s only for a short period they can begin to think they are being excluded by all. It also puts others in a position or in fact now directly involves them in other’s disagreements through no choice of their own when they don’t want to be.

I’d be very surprised if ism has you blocked He is just the type who does not like to get involved in conflict Unfortunately by doing this it makes it appear he could actually be blocking you Until he speaks out against this tactic or actually starts quoting you again as the two of you have always got on (and ism has previously mentioned the high respect he has for you ) nobody really knows

[Rooster1908]

Sorry 08, I was probably part of that posse in the early days which is why I am insecure and paranoid about being on the opposite side now. I appreciate your kind words. I also know there is some mixed messaging from some which I find very confusing which only adds to my paranoia. Also, don’t worry about the grammar.

Actually you were but I'm old enough and smart enough to see the real people .You were being dragged along for the ride by a extremely manipulative person who has a few conned .I could see the utmost decency in you and believe there are many more like you on here with a sprinkling of the other type .Don't worry about anyone else just keep being true to yourself.As for said person I'm sure by now or in the near future there will be the rant of be bullied by men , woo is me , the world has he out to get me yet again .

[ism22]

MR - I haven't blocked you and agree that a lot of the baiting/stirring is annoying. I'm pretty confident that I've snuffed out old mate and his alts.

Not sure if you see this ism as you have said im on the blocked list Whilst I have no qualms with your choice for whatever reasons they may be. It would be remiss of me not to add You are seriously deluded and need a break away from this place if you think I am one of PCs so called aliases.

Now back to more important matters I am happy for MR you have come forward to dispell the concerns she had.
